    What fun. So for an afternoon you and Lilli can
    keep amused, but I'll just stare at the ceiling.
    You'll stare at the ceiling while holding up half of the print, and
    trying to
    put the wire over the hook. These things are just at the limit of my
    ability
    to hold them up and fumble with the wire, not that heavy...just largish
    (the

    tipped in beer.

    two in the shop are about 27"X48" each, others slightly larger or smaller depending). If I get the prints back early enough I'll try to get somebody here to help me, before you guys arrive. I know the people who've been
    hanging
    things in the building (there's actually a committee for that), I live
    in the
    West wing and that seems to be where almost all the activists are.

    So if you live far from the main entrance,
    you're deemed to be more lively?

    What's the chance of a substantial and dangerous
    leak
    Not much. As I said the gas is turned off right now. The hoses I just
    put on
    are all outside laying on the ground exposed to the winds. Propane is
    heavier

    than air. In the planning stage is a rack for the bottles and
    attaching the
    hose/valves to something more permanent, the germ is there about 1/2"
    behind my
    forehead, just needs to be masticated a bit. Water...well the pump was
    pushing

    The engineer side of you has to burrow out
    that last 1/2".

    90psi and the only thing keeping it there was some sort of popoff valve
    down by
    the pump I could hear. Turn the power off and it would drop down to about 60psi, and it seemed to hold there for several days while I went back
    and forth
    to town. The replacement pressure switch is set for 30/50psi.

    I don't know what's the code minimum or
    the livable minimum.

    Is this becoming the cat echo, or what.
    Gee...does this mean I shouldn't mention visiting with some friends this afternoon who just arrived after a 2 week drive from San Diego in a RV with their 11 cats? Which is why they don't fly. Had a glass of chardonnay
    with
    them, the people not the cats (the cats seemed pooped, most didn't even
    glance
    at me, but one expressed an interest in Theresa's glass of wine). They
    have a
    really nice log cabin on the banks of the Kenai River in Cooper
    Landing, Connie
    worked with their daughter, we got PITA Too from them.

    ---------- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.01

    Title: Ginger Soft Drink
    Categories: Beverages, African, Vegetarian
    Yield: 3 quarts

    6 c -Boiling water 4 Cinnamon sticks
    1 c Ginger root;fresh, peeled & 1/2 c Lime juice; fresh or
    lemon
    -grated -juice
    1 c Sugar 1 c Orange orange
    2 ts Cloves, whole 8 c -Cool water

    "Many variations of homemade ginger beers (soft drinks) are brewed all
    over
    subSaharan Africa. Fresh ginger makes a spicy drink, cooling in summer,
    warming in winter and always refreshing and energizing. Fruit juices
    other
    than the citrus called for below, make interesting variations in its
    flavour. When using other juices, I always add the juice of a couple of
    lemons or limes. This recipe makes a concentrate that can be diluted with
    plain or sparkling water."

    Pour the boiling water over the grated ginger root, sugar, cloves and
    cinnamon in a large nonreactive pot or bowl (enamel, glass or stainless
    steel). Cover and set aside in a warm place, in the sun if possible , for
    at least an hour. Strain the liquid through a fine sieve or cloth. Add
    the
    juices and water. Set aside in a warm place for another hour or so.
    Gently
    strain the liquid again, taking care not to disturb the sediment at the
    bottom. Store in the refrigerator in a large nonreactive container. A
    glass
    gallon jar or jug works well. Serve warm, chilled or on ice, either as is
    or diluted with water or sparkling water. A squeeze of fresh lime juice
    in
    each glass of ginger drink is "the cat's meow".

    And unlike the maintenance guy, I can be
    tipped in beer.

    That and the fact that the maintenance guys all have a growth problem. They could put together a pretty good basketball team. So their idea of how high things should be are different than mine.

    So if you live far from the main entrance,
    you're deemed to be more lively?

    Just worked out that way. It was a combination of 2 things, I liked the view and the other unit that was available then had 1.5 bathrooms. Since there's just me I couldn't figure out what to do with the other half, plus they took footage away from the kitchen in order to shrink things down to stuff it in.

    Could you just dig a trench and bury them with
    sand and gravel?

    It drops down out of the RV and is right next to a wall, plywood. I have some pipe straps that I can screw onto that wall. It's just trying to decide where things should end up. Going back tomorrow and stare at it.

    I don't know what's the code minimum or
    the livable minimum.

    Steve and Ruth probably have more current information than me. But there's a couple of things...running the water into a RV. I was told by the dealer that theRV plumbing has a maximum of 50psi IIRC (they sell, and I had, pressure regulators to run the hose through since you're always driving around and you don't know what pressure you're gonna get). To low a pressure and...well things like showers get tedious waiting for there to be enough water to get wet. Faucet and shower heads all have water restrictors in them, at least mine
    did before I removed them. There's the chance you could be running off of the water tank and hauling water. Then there's disposing the gray water. I've met
    people who've never used their shower, rely on the showers at RV parks, and I've met people who've never used the stove/oven, always go out to eat. We spent several years living in ours over the 5 months of winter driving around in the lower 48, everything got regular use. Still does, just doesn't move anymore, it's a "cabin".
