    All I could think of when you were skirting that tree was the squirrels were sitting up in a tree, planning, coordinating, and laughing at you. For some reason in my mind, their squirrel voices sound just like those chipmunks Chip and Dale, with British accents. They were probably saying they willl just chew through the netting like they always do. I think the seeds of the fruit you knocked off may be ok to plant to make another tree, if they are not totally green. Ge the ripest looking ones. I saw my Mama grow a few trees, so most of this is from memory. I was always chosen to help her, since I was the youngest kid. She would use the seeds of the ones the birds or critters dropped on the ground, usually they were a bit over ripe, late summer usually, but she would take the flesh off and wash off the seeds, removing the pulp. The seeds need to dry out, so she layed them on a window sill for a few days. After they got dried, she would crack open the pit and remove the seeds inside. They look like almonds. Then she would float them to test if the seeds are good. If they sank to the bottom of the glass of water, they are probably good seeds. She always said they night not run out as good as the originals, since they are usually hybrids. A few trees made some really good plums though. We live in Oklahoma, probably not the best climate for fruit trees. Some of them took several years to grow plums. When she got her good seeds, she would get them ready to plant. She would take the good seeds, wrap them in a damp paper towel, covering them over. She would stick the seed packet bags in the fridge in a ziploc bag or something similar over winter, then plant them in the spring. I think they have to go dormant over winter. We would open the seed paper towel packets, and some had some roots popping out. In the spring, when she planted them, she always stuck a few seeds in the hole to have a better chance to let them sprout. It takes a lot of patience, but we had fruit trees all around our yard. All but the apple tree turned out good, she said it worked until it got hit by lightning, long before i was bron. We had peaches, plums, pears, ans some figs even. I miss having all that stuff. We had a tiny 3 bedrrom, old wood frame house, but a huge garden and fruit trees everywhere.

    Chad I did swimming pool 'maintenance' 2 summers, i opened maintained, repaired and closed all kinds of pools for 2 seasons when I was in my early 20s, learned the trade. I had a pool at my nana's house growing up, anyway.. I know it's annoying but if you want try A&B epoxy on any of the plastic - like the hole in your skimmer. I have found, although nothing will ever really fix it unless you actually melt the plastic with new plastic to actually adhere, but if you scuff up the area around it, mix up a little A&B and let it dry, man.. I'm telling you I've had some LONG lasting fixes with that stuff on my mother in-law's pool. Pretty good stuff.

    You need to put a return pipe at about ten feet high, you currently pulling cold air from floor level and expect lots of reduction in air temp in won't work any good like that, you need to be pulling the hot air through the conditioning unit, fan shooting up was good idea but sadly I don't think the fan would be strong enough, plum tree may be best to take a cutting and take to garden centre, should be able to give you root solution to get cutting going, sometimes when growing from seed the child plant does not produce the same of spring as the parent tree, I know it's a problem with apples, unsure with plums, I was advised by garden centre that a cutting is always the better option, best wishes Darren

    Like what you do. I think if you had ducts on that unit separating the return from the supply you'd get better results. A mini split is more efficient though. Can't wait to see you get a sponsor. I'm looking to build a 36x36 shop. I see that size works well for you. I'm going to try and make the shop solar powered . It will have to run lift, air compressor and mini split. I'm in Texas and I can hardly get anything done. I bought a 92 Silverado stepside and replacing the rusty tank , sending unit and pump and this heat is killing me. I'd also like to see more of your first dragon this winter. I really enjoy your channel . Enjoy the pool work. I'd likd to see more of that. Thanks.

    It's good to see that saltinator working.. My in-laws had one when I moved back up here 7 years ago, it was a worthless pile of crap. Wasn't the brand you have, but anyway I replaced it with another brand, again not what you have but it wasn't super expensive.. their pool is only like 22k gallons, it's a small 16x32 freeform kidney, 8ft deep end 3.5ft shallow, but it's not huge. Anyway since I put a different unit in and changed the filter grids (they have a DE filter) the past 4 years it's been so darn clear you can drop a mirror down onto the main drain and shave standing on the deck. It's CLEAR water. : )

    Make sure to use a flow switch on the salt generator so it stops working when the pump is off. Also, I think you can hold the button down 20 seconds to reset the generator computer, which would reset the salt reading. Get a fresh test kit. Make sure ph, alkalinity, hardness, and the rest are right.

    Glad you had time for home maintenance. Too bad the air conditioner wouldn't work. Hopefully you will get a sponsor as good as wildfire.
