Better than the Meson?

I don’t know that it’s better but very good. I’d stick with the Meson. This one comes with 3 different tank sections so might be a little complicated.

Looking for an early start tomorrow, the long drive home. So I'll be scarce for a few days, might have enough energy to touch bases, or not

Wishing you pleasant travels, David!

Just charged my 40w istick. My mini sub tank likes it.

I still have an iStick 40. My grandson gave it to me. He rode a bicycle a lot and dropped it on the road several times. It's ancient and battered, doesn't hold as much charge as it used to but it just won't die. It sits on a shelf and I dig it out once in a while. Just can't bring myself to retire it.

Good morning, random folks! Time to get up! I'm already on my second cup of coffee.

 

[hittman]

Good morning. I’m feeling pretty exhausted still. Feel like I really didn’t get any rest this weekend. It’s going to be a long week.

It's currently 60 degrees and foggy. Today's high is a whopping 88 degrees. We had a few thunderstorms last night, but fortunately, nothing severe. I meant to mow my lawn before it rained, but didn't get around to it. Now I have to wait for it to dry out.

I mowed a few days ago and the very back of my yard was still wet. I get tired of dealing with the wet lawn in the spring.

I much prefer simple.

Have a safe trip.

Some of the iSticks are really tough. I have two 40’s and they both are like new.

You probably didn’t get much rest. Hope the week is a fast one.

We have 21 going to a sunny 53. Should be a nice day for the workers. 88 is way to hot for me.

Is there any way to put in a drain?

 

[FranC]

Good morning random folks. Have you any plans today?

 

[FranC]

I actually remembered to plug in my battery charger this morning. Maybe it will be a good day.

 

[FranC]

It was so quiet I didn't know if the builders were here so I had to go look out the big lr window. Yes, they are here. The builder had to back his trailer back in. Noise should be forthcoming soon.

From what I understand, the back of the yards where the lawns meet on the houses on mine and the next street over used to be a stream many years ago but was developed. It doesn't help that two houses behind me have their sumps being pumped to the property line and it flows down to my yard and is supposed to flow on down to the other yards after mine but mine tends to hold water because of the high clay content. I did take a shovel and made a trench from where the water builds up to where my yard ends and the next door neighbor's yard begins and it has helped. I've thought about putting in some sort of a drain but am not really sure how to do it. Also, all of our utility lines are buried so I'd have to call and have them marked before doing any deep digging.

Yes, a very good idea to find out where the wires are before you dig anything. Good luck.
