Howdy to all the fine Cowboys, Service members, Rustlers and Patriots.....

The month of August has arrived.....
Hot and more HOT.....
Forest Fires by the fist full.....
Smoke so thick you can pretend that you are sitting around a campfire.... That is.... A Smokey campfire...

Projects continue and fun never ends.........

Have some fun Gentlemen......

 

Howdy Montana Roy and Crew,

Sorry to hear about the thick smoke. So far so good out this way. I was just reding about a bad fire up North at the Canadian border. We have just a slight tent of smoke in the air, not to bad so far.

 

Tasty Taco Tuesday Montana, Roy, Tim, Bud, George and all the Cowboys! Another month has past and I hope everyone is ready for the hot month of August!

 

I hope August is cooler than July.

Roy, looking at one pic of the roof........is that chair permanently attached to the Montana?

 

Theresa has turned into a back seat driver. That is where she will ride.....

 

Morning Sailor !! No appointments or PT scheduled for today - FINALLY. Taking a little time to look around in FTE for a change. Still alive over here - but I ain't kickin' yet!

RV is looking great Roy. Hope no kinks in the test run !

 

Top of the morning to ye'll cowboys and Patriots....

Feet hit the deck about 0635..... Greeted with a smoky morning....
63°F & 41% humidity...... barely any breeze at all.

I have HD work today..... Noon - 1800
This is going to put a big dent into my work time at home......

POD:
Painting on the roof of the Montana.
Un winterize the water system of the trailer (Montana)
I am putting in a new water pump with an accumulator and water filters.

Now the focus is to get the Montana ready to go camping starting Monday the 7th.....

If you felt an earthquake..... It is because Theresa is up and dressed early. She has volleyball training camp this week. 0800 - 1600 Monday - Thursday

Time to get some food and get to work..... Painting is the first order of fun.....

Enjoy a great day my friends.....

 

Howdy Sailor..... Good to see ya up and around....

 

Howdy Guys.....

This morning I checked each solar panel to make sure each one was producing power and it was getting to the solar controller.
All is well...















Screenshots from my phone... BT connection to the batteries and the solar controller.


Around 1000 - 1100 hrs today. Running one of the A/C units to provide a load.




There are other views available. Each battery can be looked at in detail, down to individual cells.

 

Congratulations on wrapping up the solar project! I wish I was going camping with you guys' next week, sounds like fun!

 

Happy Happy Hump Day Montana, Roy, Bud, Tim, George and all the crew. Looks like the system is working, Great job. We will be looking forward to the actual test run next week!

 

Morning Sailor. WOW, what a system ! Great job as usual, Roy. Hope today goes as well as yesterday !

 

Good morning to all ye fine folks..... and great Patriots....

Sure feels good to have the system done.... Been a long project. Invested a bunch of time and money..... Also feels good to have the skills to make it happen. God has been good to me

Already 0820.... I slept in some... I am tired, but have to push on to get ready for the camping next week..... Then I can be a lazy bum for awhile....

66°F.... 34% humidity..... light breeze at about 5 - 10 mph. Today's high temp looks to be 93°F. I hope the wind picks up a little....

POD:
Food
Work on the Montana......
-- Paint. Some of the roof still needs a coat of paint.
-- Water system. Get it running for the season and install filters....
We will see what happens after that.

Take care my friends.....
Bud keep going..... Makes me happy to hear of your progress !!

 

Morning Sailor. Nice to see the RV project has been successfully completed ! Enjoy. First post-op visit with the surgeon that did the knee in less than 2 hours. Gotta get going.

 

Howdy Cowboys, Sailors, Rustlers and Patriots....

Sailor Bud.... Please provide a SitRep after your Doc visit.

Looks to be smoke and clouds cluttering up the sky. Going to be 91 °F today. Right now a cooler 66°F with 45% humidity. A light 5 + mph breeze.

Home Depot is "calling" me..... 0700 - 1230 hrs shift.
Then I have work waiting for me at home..... New water pump with an accumulator to install plus two new water filters. Then I can button up the storage compartment.
Much to get done before our camping trip Monday.

Well..... I have to get ready for work at HD and head to the Orange Toy Store.....

Have some fun today.....
