The radar indicates the rain is past us for today but a deep low persistes to make life miserable for the next few days.\u00a0 I spent today researching marine grounding systems and galvanic corrosion.\u00a0 In addition to the discovery process and revamp of the alternator system, I have been wanting to install a galvanic isolator in the green wire AC ground system.\u00a0 In order to do all this I have to insure that the boat’s current 120VAC neutral and green wire ground system is set up correctly.\u00a0 I just have a sneaking hunch that the neutral and earth ground are tied together somewhere in those three or four busses that lurk behind the circuit breaker panel.\u00a0 Since the boat is coming out for winter storage in the next few days this task becomes a winter project.<\/p>\n
As I look out the window on to our rain soaked yard I see big circles on the ground filled with varing shades of orange, red and yellow leaves that have come down early because of the rain.\u00a0 There is an area that contains a puddle of water surrounded by a green expanse of grassy yard.\u00a0 I would guess that about 1\/4 of the leaves are now down and that is a good amount to attack when it dries out.\u00a0 The front yard and driveway are nearly covered with the hickory and oak leaves from the trees up here on the top of the hill.<\/p>\n
Two days ago the farmer to the south combined his beans off and it was dusty.\u00a0 The tenacious stuff stuck to my clean truck so I took it out for a drive to try to get rid of at least a little dust before putting it away in the storage building down by the lake.\u00a0 The corn still remain as desicated sentinals standing guard of the fields but they will be gone before too long.\u00a0 After that we can expect snow and hopefully it will be cold enough to stick for a while so cross country skiing is possible.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
