Greg gave me the idea of replacing the Water Wizard sticker set on the unit, which they do look pretty bad. Jim Coleman wants $500 for the American Flag version of the wizard sticker. I am going to see how much a local vinyl guy will cost first though.
The Electrician cut my power off today and installed a new meter box and 2 new panels. We also mounted the Water Wizard – Electrical control center on the wall. If all goes according to plan I should have power late tomorrow after the inspection.
Ditch digging fun! I dug the 12 foot section of the trench that was the black top section. But I am not sure what I am going to do with the concrete side. (The wires are going to run up the brick wall.)
(See if you can figure out when my Canon camera broke and I had to start using my iphone.)
Today, I started my entry unit trench. I cut the blacktop out and dug up 4 feet of the 12 feet that needs to be dug up. (The pay station will be installed 15 feet from the rails? Or at least that is where I am planning to install mine for now.)
Well, my Canon PowerShot SD630 died again today. It has died 5 times now. I think that this camera is a total piece of crap now. The error was Lens error, restart camera. The amazon.com NEW warranty actually is really good. They said after it breaks 3 time for the same problem their “lemon rule” goes in effect. Which means they will replace this POS with a new camera. Only 1 or 2 more times and this nightmare will be over.
My Electrician installed my three phase power to my Coleman self serve equipment today. He was not supposed to show up until Monday but he started early. I just hope he shows up on Monday!
Well maybe not exactly this but something stupid. I installed a speaker into the upstairs sewer drain. Your next question is probably how did you figure out that you achieved this feat? Well you can answer that question yourself.
The Electrical inspector inspected my equipment room today and almost had me put my power box outside. Luckily I can put it on an adjacent wall.
I also waited around to take some pictures of the concrete being poured for about 3 hours, then gave up. So I hope the footer looks good but there will be no pictures today.
