It's ALL about the oil... that's why I took the name "Boattrash" decades ago.

I remember a meeting with a Brit. "Big Whig" with Royal Dutch Shell.
When asked about crew changes he said "If it happens within 72 hours of the scheduled time, Shell considers it a successful crew change."

That meeting was on a Thursday.
He also said "I'm catching a flight, back across the pond to get home to my wife for the weekend."

I told him "Drag your happy ass in to her, Monday morning and ask her how successful that crew change was."

He kinda grinned and said "Point taken."
Excellent comeback!
 
Okay, up. Coffee. Reimbursement check arrived this morning, a day late but in full. Its delay may have been weather related. The work begins today. We should be in decent shape. At least it warmed some yesterday. It may rain tonight - we'll see. There is a warning for Sever (the E is left out for effect) Weather this afternoon and evening, but it's going to stay above freezing, so it shoont (shouldn't - again, for effect) but no any big deal. Hain't skeert.

Somewhere, a weasel is pining to be in a casserole . . . .

I am wondering if it’s frozen in the lines… When our generator did its self check on Saturday it only ran for a three or four minutes instead of the usual 10.

The generator seems fine, but I’m concerned that if we need it, it may not run. It runs on a separate propane tank than our heat.

Although I will say, we’ve had no problem with using our stove which runs on the same set of three tanks ganged together that the generator runs on.

On Friday when I work from home, I’m gonna see if it will run for a while.
I did some checking. It appears that the liquid gets to a temperature that it can't vaporize and stays in liquid form. Which is referred to as freezing. At least thats my understanding.
