    When my wife breaks down and makes hamburger with gravy over French fries we melt a special cheese curd over it and call it poutine :drool::drool:

    That's one serious time capsule. I see potential.

    It's a fairly large Ryobi electric pressure washer. It's been great for a couple of years so far

    Thank you, and will have to take a look. Price seems okay as well.

    I had my first fire in the insert last night after putting in a new door gasket the night before.

    Yeah I thought it was fake at first glance too. It's not though. It's also not a mainstream vehicle. 99% of the people cannot deal with 0-60 in 1 second, let alone any crazy gymnastics moves from time to time. Sadly , when it's available, that 1% will buy it despite maybe 1% of that already narrow 1% will be able to properly use it.

    I recall that feature that you have in your house. Hey, you do what you have to to make it work, and you might as well use that space, even if a spill happens once in a while.

    So back to Canadian border VT 's "I only fix stuff that breaks.. that list is long enough" comment, I adhere to that rule as well. As long as I can at least.

    Well, now I have a pinhole leak in my air over water pressure tank for the well. The tiny bit of water leaking is contained and doesn't harm anything, but I'll need to swap out the pressure tank now in the next few days. So trying to find a non bladder pressure tank is not easy. I'll start a different thread about that process, but it appears that I can change to a bladder type pressure tank as long as I get rid of the snifter valve. That snifter valve is built into the pressure tank so once I remove that old tank, I should have no issues going to a bladder tank even with the bleeder valve just above the well pump.

    Alabama? A couple that were our very good friends moved from Milwaukee county to coastal Alabama. They moved there in June. Apparently everything was ok for them and they rode it out.

    That's been a great question since we learned how many there are. And how few of us there are

    The storm shifted east and that worked out good for us. Didn't loose a day...and you wouldn't even have known it rained there when we drove in, let alone had a hurricane next door in Pensacola.

    Vessel had to be abandoned and the weather drove her into shore :(

    I can't help but notice that she just barely missed the mouth of the harbour.

    Now I want to watch Get Smart! Hate to see that boat wreck like that though.

    A couple years ago I splurged on this Greenworks: https://www.lowes.com/pd/Greenworks...old-Water-Electric-Pressure-Washer/1000990966
    I like it a lot! It isn't as powerful as my Yamaha powered gas pressure washer but it is closer than any of the electrics I have tried. It is more convenient and I use it way more than the gas.
