The travelers will sail through the glaciers today. I can't wait to see those pics but it will be a couple more days

Good morning peoples

Good morning to you. Hope you have a good day.

I haven't tried my new 5ml pod yet. Haven't decided what pod and coil to use yet. @hittman any suggestions.

I want to finish the chocolate mix in the PM40 before I fire up another pod also. I still have a half bottle.

I've finally gotten around to trying the 30ml tester of my Creamy Pango.

It seems to have a little dryness to it so I'll probably mess with it a little yet.
I think I'll try adding a little FA Pear and see what that does for it. After that I might try using FA Apricot in place of the pear to see if that helps any.
I don't have any cucumber yet so can't give that a go. I do have INW Cactus but I'm a little skeered to try it.

Other than the bit of dryness I'm pretty happy with it.

You could also try adding some Lulo, if you have it.

I filled my hummer tank this morning. Hoping they aren't going to leave soon. I only saw one yesterday.

 

[FranC]

Had a hummer at the feeder. Hope to see more.

Staying in my rooms as much as possible to cut down on the 100's of hand washes.

Now that I want my PM40 to finish it's chocolate mix it isn't going down fast at all. Figures.

I just got back from the doctor's. He took the bandages off and said I could now get the leg and foot wet. I'm sill in the boot and using the scooter, but a week from Friday, I can start weight bearing in the boot. That's the day we leave for College Station, so no scooter for the Aggies game! I should be out of the boot by the time we leave for Italy.

Morning, mixers.,

No change in the weather here, either, although the smoke is being blown east, so better air.



Cactus... keep it at 0.5% or less It can add some "juciness" to a mix.

Thank you, David!

I'm still a bit leery of trying out the Cactus (why'd I buy it then?) but maybe I'll mix another 30ml batch and then split it Into 10s to give Cactus, Pear, and Apricot each a try.

I don't have Lulo yet but will look into it as I foresee another BCF order soon.

Hope you are out of the boot before your trip.

In a 10ml bottle I'd use only a drop or two of the Cactus.

I had a second hummer so I guess they are still here.

Thank you, Fran!

Yeah, two drops usually weigh in right about .05 (0.5%) for my 10ml testers.

I might need to make a 10% dilution of Cactus if I start using it often!

Would probably be a good idea if you like it.

I saw one yesterday where I was working. I don't know my plants, but it was kind of a big bush with blue/purple individual blossoms.
The hummer actually landed and sat for a few seconds a couple of times.
It was gone by the time I fetched my phone to try and get a picture.

This PM40 is weird. It went thru my first two chocolate mixes really fast. Today I've been using it a bit more than usual and it's wicked slow going down. I've been trying to get the bottle near empty so I can try my new pod soon. I will clean and put away the PM40 when I fire up the new one. Looks like that won't be until sometime tomorrow.

Yes, they are very fast birds.

All birds seem to know when you get the camera and split. Sphinx moths are cool too, they are hard to tell from a hummingbird when they are flying about.
