The wind blew and stuff flew, this came up over last night, I could hear and feel it while still in bed. With the wind blowing today it was hard to maintain a cell signal, also on the rainy and windy days. Today I wanted a cell signal more so I had to wait until latter in the day when the wind died down. Federal tax forms review from the tax preparer and getting them filed. Flow back is out and work over rig will be in soon.

Lights, portable work lights used here to illuminate our area, reducing wildlife coming too close to Buster and lighting our walking area. These lights travel with the generator trailer one light fixture (two lights) on a tripod stand did not work at all, in fact we had an LED light bungee to it when we were in Smiley. 
This light never worked

Anther two light fixture on a tripod stand only one fixture worked these were two bulbs to a fixture with only one bulb working. And two LED fixtures on the ground the second tripod mounted bulb lasted only two days, (halogen) and no spare bulbs. Took over a week to get more lights, a new LED tripod double fixture and two more ground LED fixtures, but one did not work.

A bad morning the company generator failed shortly after I got up this morning. No coffee no breakfast and not dressed yet. Working with a flash light getting dressed and trying to restart the generator. Battery will not start the generator I had to jump the battery from our car battery. I got the generator running and put the Tan Jan off to the side not where we want it parked. Now breakfast and get ready for my day after breakfast the generator shut down again. Harder to restart but I finally got the generator started, while keeping the car battery connected I got out my battery charger connecting it to the generators battery leaving that on trickle charge until the coordinator came to change out the battery. We had power and when he texted me he was on the dirt road I made preparation to change out the generator trailer and started Busters generator that also was a problem. I have only started it with outside electric power on for a long time, more convenient. So that made me think, it has been a while (long time) since I checked cleaned the battery connections and the batteries have installed since June 2013. No it is not how long since I did the connections maybe two years.
 


Thought for the Day:

A Hallmark greeting card that plays a little jingle when you open it has more computing horsepower than the entire USAF in 1960.
