Some of the younger members might disagree, but we're certainly in that category.... same song on the repeat mode. ;)

Is your roof not an option? We just got our end of the year settle up statement from APS (one of two major power companies in the Phoenix AZ area), and our 12 KW roof top solar produced $193 worth of power in excess of what we used last year, which will cover about the first 4-5 months of the...

Thought I'd seen some national news reports of Florida palms covered in snow earlier this week?

Brrrrrrrrr rrrrrrrrr ! Thanks for reinforcing our decision to join these guys!!

Yup, that's how I learned not to bungee up the trailer jack handle to keep it safe from road debris.....instead it punched a hole through my bumper cover when I jackknifed the TD trying to back around on a narrow road.:oops:

Good idea. FWIW The most likely reason a jump from another vehicle with a good battery shouldn't work would be a bad connection, assuming the starter is working normally. A bad connection most likely will be where your battery cables are connected to the battery posts, and can just be that the...

No, just our annual trek to the SW to escape the worst of the winter back in MN. I don't think we'd like the summers here.:(

We came as close to freezing as we've been last night. In anticipation of that, since our bougainvillea shrubs have been the only plants we have had get severely damaged with frost in the past despite being covered, I rigged up a misting system on a timer to keep them misted for the 4 coldest of...

We have a Kwik trip in our MN town, and like it. Kinda miss it here in AZ sometimes, maybe Bucc-ees will have to be our distant cousin substitute down here.

They're building a Bucc-ee's about 10 miles from our AZ home. Kinda anxious for it to open and see what all the fuss is about.

How about this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FH9JD8Q2/ref=syn_sd_onsite_mobileweb_0?ie=UTF8&psc=1&pd_rd_plhdr=t&aref=QVuhImCQj7

We've had the Lectric ebike, similar to the one in your photo, and a tote like that for the last three years, although I usually carry it on a bike rack on the back of the 550 TD. I've liked it, but Kris couldn't get used to the little power surge when the pedal assist kicked in. There is a...

Looks cozy....too bad it looks like the Bears have it sewn up this year....been quite a drought for them though, so can't complain too loudly.

Now that the axe is secure for another year, I've been able to do some pruning on our mesquite. :D

Looking at our security camera's back home makes us glad we went south a little earlier this year. Wish you were here. ;)

We have the Delta 2, and recently added a Delta 3 with a 220 watt EF bifacial panel. I like the sogen, but the folding panel is a bit of a pain with its case being used as its support, it isn't the most stable, and the 3 panels try to fold back up to their folded stored position. I've also heard...

I agree, it's kinda hard to understand why they keep using such a relatively unstable connector. Having said that, I can't say having them come loose is something that's been a chronic problem for us. It's probably more a situation where there are still more cigarette style 12V connectors in use...

I put a link to dry brining in the original post, but after looking at it I discovered it wasn't the one I actually used. I corrected that here and above. Dry Brine Turkey

We tried dry brining last year, and it was one of the best birds I've made, but it's a little late to do for this years TG, best start three days ahead. No bucket required, so if there's room in the fridge for the turkey, you can dry brine it. How to Dry Brine a Turkey - Chef Tips for Dry...

Feels and looks like winter at our MN home. Possibly some sub zero lows next week.
