Come Back Jennifer & Melissa

Warming up the Quail

Mr & Mrs Quail brought the family out for a little sunshine.

There were even more little Quails, but I couldn't get the all in the picture.

Big Family -- Good parents.

Daddy's 64th Birthday!

It took me a little while to figure out how to offload this from my phone. Happy Birthday Daddy! Guess we didn't really listen to your request to "Not sing happy bday to you in the restaurant." I think the entire place joined in! :)

Time to test the 12-year old Generator

We purchased this house 10 years ago and it came with this portable generator. Previous owners had house/generator for 2 years. It had never been started, never had gas or oil put in it. House also had a separate circuit breaker/transfer switch.

Today we (yes, finally) decided to test her. Put in gas and oil and read the 'how to'. Started up in 3 pulls.

Well, we were happy, anyway!

We're slow but thorough =). Next, test under load.

(note, we added the wheels and front gromet-things.)
