Neat and trimmed, Only Fans, Flow
It has been perfectly cool in the mornings the last few days with temps in the 50’s. On Friday after work I knocked out the weeding instead of going on a bike ride. The reason for doing so was to allow me to get the property mowed early in the morning. It was very nice doing so while the air was cool. The reason I was advancing my normal schedule was I made arrangements to go back up to Babcock Ranch with Ali and Shugs to see the latest progress on their house.
Elsa gets ridiculously excited when she see Ali, Shugs, Sadie and Ferdie. She was sprinting around in circles, jumping and just being a total spaz. It’s very cute. I brought the Tesla so we took it to Babcock. When we got there we had lunch at the Lake House a nice restaurant in the town center. Evidently they are pretty severely understaffed, as a result it took a long time to get through the meal. However we were outside overlooking the lake in beautiful weather so it didn’t bother me much.
There has been a ton of progress on their place since I saw it last where the house was basically just a foundation. There are now walls, a roof, and the inside is studded out. The lines for natural gas and water have been roughed in as well. It was cool to both see the house and see Ali and Shuggs excitement for it. I think they will be very happy there.
The Saturday switch up meant I did my grocery shopping on Sunday with Elsa in tow of course. When I got back I decided to finally install the upgraded bathroom vent fan I bought from Costco a couple weeks prior. For as long as I have been in the house the guest room fan has annoyed me because the vent cover would not stay locked against the ceiling, despite my repeated efforts to rig it. Also the bearings in the motor would occasionally make a nasty squeal that would come and go.
Many times I thought about replacing the fan but for some reason I had it in my head it would be difficult to do. Well it turns out I was wrong. When I saw the label on the new fan boasted of an easy 10 minute installation I was skeptical. It turns out it is stupid easy and made me laugh that I avoided doing this for a decade or more. The new unit has a bigger motor yet is quieter however the biggest thing I like is the integrated LED light in the new fan which adds a lot more light to the space. Of course I shot a video about it just in case someone needs guidance on the stupid easy install.
Late Sunday afternoon I headed down to the Greenway again with my OneWheel GT to try out some of the other riding modes which can significantly change the way the board feels. The one mode, Flow, which I never tried but had heard about actually felt really good and might be my go to for most riding environments.
I was up late editing both videos. The weekend flew by but I came out of it with a better mindset than I have carried for awhile.
