The Curtain Drain at the top of the hill started to run. 540 gallons a day, after 4.75 inches of rain.
It will take some days to clean and clear the drain. I very am happy. Put the pipes into the glaze shop from the tank house
now we have potable water in glaze shop. Soon to have hot water too!

Vacation day.
In Radio repair school they said this was not good. BBQ inside the radio is a clue something is wrong.
See the flat thingee (cap) it is burnt, round bar thingee (resistor) burnt, and the green glob upper right
it is a choke and not suppose to be cracked. Too much heat.
