    Sounds like one of those small Honda gennies might be in order. Some of them are pretty quiet.
    I see Harbor Freight has those for $400. I don’t know. Kinda seems like bad etiquette for a primitive campground. We have the DC converter arriving today via FedEx and will see if it makes a difference. Otherwise, we might have to look at a small marine cell.

    Not exactly sure what the spouse was expecting when she booked this reservation :|

    Little bit cooler here, 80's. Time to catch up on some gardening. I got a bottle of Tordon yesterday, it kills weed trees. You cut them close to the ground and paint it on the stumps. I've got dozens of weed trees. Been cutting them back for years but they just grow back even stronger. They grow in rock gardens and close to the house or fences or trees, places where mowing or digging up the roots is a problem. Now it's time for them to pay.

    Received an order from BCF yesterday, ordered Tue evening, arrived Thu evening. Don't know how they do it. Mostly refills but picked up some TFA Meringue for a raspberry experiment. I must say it doesn't smell too good in the bottle. If it doesn't work I'll probably order a bunch of other versions of Meringue, every manufacturer has one.

    I try to stick with TFA as much as possible. Always worry about flavoring manufacturers having problems if they are serving the vape market. TFA won't go away.

    My daughter comes today. Yeah! We woke to discover that the ac leaks water into the camper, a lot! Another thing for my mom to take in to get fixed. That's the main purpose of this trip, to try out the camper and find all the things wrong with it.

    Sounds like the drain line might be disconnected / kinked / plugged. One easy thing to check is to see if there is a 'DRY' function in the settings. We have a couple of those portable roll around units here, and the amount of water it generates is incredible. If the dry function is turned off, we can go almost the entire summer without draining the water tank.

    Cranberry dragon cream:
    Fresh cream-fa-1%
    Dragon fruit-cap-8%
    Cranberry-tfa-4%
    Sweet cream-fw-4%
    Marshmallow-jf-1%
    How does this sound? I'm open to suggestions.
    Yea or nay?

    I haven't used dragon fruit in ages. Is the cap pretty weak? I used to use the cranberry at 3% in a recipe I liked. I have been using the TFA sweet cream at 1% in a recipe for a while so am not sure if the FW is weaker or not but 4% seems like a lot.

    We have the DC converter arriving today via FedEx and will see if it makes a difference.

    As long as the inverter (what a DC to AC device is called) has a decent sine wave and stable 120 VAC with enough capacity, it should work fine. I keep a smallish one (1500 watt AC) in the car. Wife has used it on trips to run a standard heating pad, no problems. Yeah, an EG, even a super quiet one, does seem out of place at a wilderness camp site! :lol:

    Maybe 6% on the Dragonfruit, unless the Cranberry is too forward. Haven't used that (don't care for 'em irl, either :) ), so can't really say.And with both fresh and sweet cream, the marshmallow may not be needed.

    Thanks, to be honest the marshmallow was an afterthought.

    Good evening. I sure am glad the week is over. I’m wore out. I installed a bunch of LED lights at work today so I could score some brownie points with the boss. He had mentioned it a week ago but I hadn’t had time to do them.

    Freshened up Cloudy's cottontails (yeah, he's got two...) and gave him an ultrasonic bath while we were sprucing up. Also changed his diet from Milk of the Poppy to a Berry Crunch.
    He seems to like it for now.
    Hopefully he doesn't start spitting it out later!

    Mixed up another ten of my randomly generated three flavor mixes plus a simple duo that I saw last night browsing an old Capella thread here.
    I guess that I'm a bit fixated with the random idea right now as I even hacked up a spreadsheet to do it for me.

    Hoping all of you have an enjoyable weekend! :thumbs:
    (if that's your kind of thing)

    I had to take the wife to Ikea (Hej!) to return a curio cabinet, what a PITA. Then to Walmart. So glad to be home!

    Have a great weekend everybody!

    You should get a medal for going to Walmart!
