The rain had just ended yesterday morning after the cells overnight moved off. We got a third of an inch which is pretty solid for a summer storm system. Some blips are floating around this morning as well but likely won't drop anything on us.
Man Utd started the season the way they ended the last, losing. I highly expect them to be in the bottom half of the table again by the end.
The garden had a normal amount for me with a few tomatoes finally ripening.
The cabbage had to be picked through and stripped to the good leaves. I got 11 pounds which went to the cooler. I have to cut the plants out today.
I went to put them in the cooler and found this barn spider had made a web right next to the scale. I managed to not hit the web and let it stay there.
The forecast was looking right for flying so I headed up to Inkler's and got there about noon.
Dropped the scooter at the bottom then drove up to the top where Steve had his hang glider setup, but the winds were cycling up to 25 mph and higher sometimes.
We stood and waited and watched the winds. I turned around and there was a turkey vulture floating in the air all of 20 feet over us. It circled around the launch numerous times and flew right over us eyeballing us each time.
It was quite curious seeming and was super cool to watch it as it glided around us.
It was 1:45 and Steve took the opportunity to get in the air. I had my Evora with and there was zero chance of me getting it out with the gusts so strong. I would have ended up in Montana likely.
He got a nice launch and then I watched him fly off down the ridge before I headed down to go home.
I got to the bottom and loaded the scooter back up and got a few shots of him flying around.
I went home and later in the day I was out at the truck. I needed to test the compression as the most important initial thing I can try. I started on bank 1 and each of the cylinders was pretty close.
The problem was when I went to bank 2, the driver's side and side the bad bearing was on, I tested cylinder 2 and got a reading on the initial try but then it read ZERO after.... I went to number 4 and got zero....
I'm really not liking this. I'm going to try testing again today but if I can't get compression to register then I will be pulling the engine back apart to find out what is wrong on that side.
The case printed for the Orange pi which fits perfectly in it. Now just to get the OS to load and run.
Soak for a bit before bed.
Slept for shit again last night. Today I have the garden to work in, the boys and I will be going to work on the water feature this morning, then I have 40 pounds of potatoes sold and will meet mid afternoon, and I need to get my clothes washed soon.
