electricity on the way ...

   our new Honda generator is scheduled to be delivered this coming Monday ... I'm sure the local wildlife will be glad for it's arrival ... 

   the last week, or so, I've been using the old 'Harley' (my nickname for the Briggs & Stratton generator), which as previously mentioned, is heavy, loud & thirsty (just like the real thing) ... I was reminded yesterday of another negative aspect of it, that of being a beast to start on cold mornings ... fortunately, it kicks off after 3-4 pulls, but man, that thing pulls hard in cold oil ! ...      

   there's definitely got to be some way to hitch Sybil up to it, maybe some sort of 'pull-start' arrangement ...

   yesterday was 'maintenance day' on the van, getting ready to pull out soon ...
   I still need to rebuild the hitch assembly on the trailer, the guts are worn out, I will post up pics when I disassemble it, should be interesting ...

   *********************************

   the Packers got beat up in their first regular-season game, 36-16 vs the Seattle Seahawks ... 

   Sunday, 'da Bears' will welcome the Buffalo Bills to Soldier Field  (said the spider to the fly), and after our anticipated WIN, will be a full game up on the Packers ...

   this, of course, is all that matters to a Bears fan, beating the Packers ... beating the Packers twice during the season, a sweep, is the REAL Super Bowl, ya know ...

   

let's get it on !
