    Bought a small hose clamp at Home Depot for my nitro cold brew experiment with a soda siphon and a stout tap.

    Updating my roaster's firmware.

    Updating my roaster's RoasTime application software.

    Success, this cleared up the problem I was having with not being able to display the info panel.

    @Patrickbrick,  I  just go along to see if what we were working on repeats and what was happening when it did.  We can also do some troubleshooting in flight on most systems that we can't do on the ground.  This one was for a very intermittent problem that only showed up every few flights and only at the end of the flight.  Couldn't get it to fail on the ground.   Didn't fail in flight this time either.
    I'm still troubled by what I did for that Klondike bar...

    I think that if the fixers know they are going up on a test flight they probably are going to do the job right....
    The unwritten industry standard is if you won't put (yourself, mom, wife, daughter) on board, it ain't right.

    Finished pressure washing the driveway, moved the tent trailer over, had some lunch and am watching Mindhunter with the Wife.

    Saw my name in the obituaries. Probably wasn't me. 
    But did you die?  Dibs on your beer, just in case...

    My daughter got her license a while ago.  That's not boring.  Hair raising.  Scary.  Not boring.

    She's got a couple babysitting jobs and other such things to earn income, but with school starting she needed a car so I wouldn't have to shuttle mom to and from work. It'll also make it easier for her to find a real job.

    So my Saturday was spent car shopping after a lot of research of what was in the area used.  We did end up buying one.

    Tuesday, I'm wrapping up a meeting and I get a phone call.  Flat tire.  And she's lost.  Took a wrong turn somewhere and hit a PA pothole in the middle of the city.

    Wednesday afternoon spent getting a new tire.

    Why did I buy her a car?

    I like Oliva and Quesada (including Regius) a lot.  I will smoke anything, though.

    Going to get wood, lots of wood.  Then get smoker going and more family time.
