Got another input, which is maybe just turn everything on, slow trickle, overnight. We're running off the lake, so it's not like I'm worried about emptying a well, and with a pressure tank in the middle it won't be running the pump constantly. Then only thing I'd have to do is turn off the input to the toilet, add a bit of antifreeze to the tank, flush it once to push the antifreeze through it.

Decisions, decisions :)

What a lucky guy, Lake front. I'd love to see some pics Mark. I'm an outdoosman at heart.

View from the porch toward the lake, the old camp/bunkhouse and the current home, and view from the water's edge.

The old bunkhouse is a full refurb, turning it into workshop space. I'll be adding a deck to the main house this summer, in front of part of the porch and the stairs.

It's 100' water front, nice neighbors, only 20 minutes from home. The house is a 70's trailer, with porch, living room, and full roof added.

I've been clinging to mixing my main vape at 20% flavor for as long as I've been making it, even tho I've cut back on the other few recipes I make to 8-10%. This morning my main was tasting extra potent so I mixed up a batch of unflavored 14mg, and cut my main recipe in half. Guess what? It tastes great at 10% flavor...better than before :facepalm:

Has anyone ever noticed how stubborn I can be?

Upper 20s predicted, too cool for this time of year.

I turned off the water pump, opened all faucets to bleed it off (including at the low point of the piping) removed the main filters. I stopped short of pulling the pump freeze plug and fully emptying the intake pipe. The deep cold should be fairly short term, there is room to handle a bit of icing

Geesch, it was 84 here in East Texas today and supposed to get down to 56 tonight.

Do you guys have to wear those snow shoes all year round? I thought you just wore them in the winter time ... but it guess low 20's is winter time isn't it?

Very nice. What a nice place.

Nice place you've got there Mark!!! I love seeing pics, so keep us updated on the projects as you go along? I'd love it!

Windy here today and yesterday going down to 36 in the overnight tonight and tomorrow night, then we rebound a bit.
Ya now we need some underwater pics so we can see what it's like for Mark when he's visiting Nepyune.

I got some very nice pieces of different kinds of wood today. Plus I'm getting more. This ladies husband died a while back and he had wood from all over the world. She just gave it to me because she doesn't want it to go to waste. There was a real nice uncut Burl and a few 7.5 foot X 9.5 in. X 1 inch Oak boards form trees off his property that he had made into lumber. I don't even know what a lot of it is yet but it is pretty wood. A lot of it are in big rectangular chunks he used for turning. I'm one happy guy and have enough to keep me busy for a long time.

Mark that's a great looking place...As we say down South....It's the Cat's azz....Good luck on the pipes...I think you'll be fine....

Great score on the wood Five....make sumthin' purdy!!!!!!!

Bov stubborn?????????????

45 gallons of round up sprayed using the new carry all....used the new hitch for moving the boats and trailers to mow under them....worked the rest of the day down on the farm...I'm bushed again!!!! All that work left me a little sunburned....and it's gonna be 38* tomorrow night...Likely my plants will fare well without but I'm covering them anyways...Stevia isn't exactly easy to find round these parts and they are growing so well......

Box I do find it best to mix @10%....I got Carmel Cappacino from TFA/RTS...Didn't they say that should be @3%???? I didn't notice any strong smell but I didn't uncap it either...I got Mt. Dew as well...Sounds like a killer vape...but so have other things that didn't pan out so well....
