    Yes it is rather ridiculous. The machine is about 17 years old so parts may start becoming harder to get. The replacement for that machine is about 45k now.
    Yes, I imagine a big diesel welder like that is very pricy.

    Morning, mixers.

    Another warm day here, but if they're right (well, sometimes...) it should cool a bit starting tomorrow.

    Groton CT or Mass?

    Looked up New London and guessing you’re from Conn??

    Yep, CT. And nope, St. Louis :) Military family, Dad shipped over from the Navy to the Coast Guard after WWII, so all domestic duty stations. He was at the Groton CG radio station then. Grew up pretty much all over the country (except the deep south, he never got stationed anywhere there.)

    Top'o the morning mixers. Smoky day in the mid-atlantic. They advise against strenuous exercise today, I try to take this advice every day. :)
    That smoke reached the midwest yesterday, and we have a high pollen day as well. Luckily after several weeks of hot dry weather the grass has stopped growing. I got an excuse to stay inside and take it easy.

    Pollen is bad here too. The grass hasn't been mowed in a week and it looks like it could take another before mowing. :) Bluegrass grows slow anyways, especially with no rain. I found out the neighbors are moving to mexico, so I'm hoping whoever gets the house doesn't have a bunch of untrained animals (human and otherwise).

    Are your neighbors Mexican or do they just want to live there?

    My two mixes are very low and will be in my tanks by the end of the day so 2 more empty bottles there will be.

    When I mention my two mixes or two tanks I’m referring to a pair of Zlides I’ve been using so long half the paint on them is missing.

    I do have other mixes and tanks in use.

    And just like that I have 2 empty bottles. Neither of the mixes was my fav. so I’ve done well to get down to the last tank of each.

    Had GGD over for the day. I took her down the local park which has a nice playground. There was only one other kid there who was a 4 year old girl. As soon as the kid saw us coming she started screaming, people, people, go away. But then GGD gave her a foam ball from her bag and she was happy again, never let go of it until we left. When we were ready to leave we wandered over to get the ball back. The mother said you have to give the ball back, she dropped it then threw herself down on the ground and had a tantrum.

    The whole time we were there the mother had a phone in her ear, she was trying to manage the kid with one hand. The kid went down a spiral slide and mother followed still yakking on the phone. Kid stopped at the bottom but mother couldn't stop with one hand and ran into her. Sent her flying.

    Some people can't put their darn phones down.
