longpour/shortpour
Had to repair another blown hose on the solar shower this morning - got a little colder overnight than I thought it would....but we are in a warming trend now - looking at highs in the 80's next week with not so bad overnight lows. Set up the solar powered pump and transferred 250 gallons from one of the greenhouse tanks to the house tank. Poured the long section along the NE container and finished up faster than I expected. Too much day left and not enough beer ( http://health.yahoo.net/experts/dayinhealth/10-surprising-health-benefits-beer ) so I built and set the form and poured the end section too...a 12 bag day. 46,66,21,0,C
Enjoying a few beers myself.
ReplyDeleteThe report says only 2 per day. Surely you had that many.
ReplyDeleteThat is a misprint. The headline
ReplyDeleteshould read " surprising health
benefits of 10 beers ". If something is good then a little more surely can't hurt so why not
make it an even 12 pack ? The
marvelous thing about beer is it's as good with bacon & eggs in the morning as it is a midnight
snack.Also a little known fact is that half a beer from the night before with the cigarette
butt in it is is a cure for intestinal
parasites....
Good work on the pour. You continue to be an inspiration. And thanks for the beer health benefits. It looks like I have been right all along. I never expected to live this long and it looks like I can attribute it to my beer consumption.
ReplyDeleteJohn,
ReplyDeleteWhy not use a braided metal hose on the shower?
I like the image
ReplyDeleteNice work.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the beer link. Tried to get my wife to read it, but she wasn't going for it...
