2021 Trip To South Dakota

[Sir Henry]

Quiet. I could use some of that. It was great to catch up on your travels.

today's project -- modify the water tank lid for my CPAP so it can connect to our SoClean machine .... in the first two pictures the OEM lid is on the left and the SoClean compatible it son the right .... the fitting used and after being installed shown in next two pictures .... last picture show shows both .... the biggest complication that needed to be dealt with is most of the surfaces are curved .... this complicates a good seal ... I hope to pickup the glue to finish the modification at Walmart in the morning .... the reason for this mod is our insurance covers scheduled replacement tanks but will not cover SoClean comparable lids which cost about $30 .... the fittings to make the conversion cost about 6 cents each ..

It’s great to catch up on your adventures. Tire pressure and tv troubles is life on the road.

What brand is your cpap machine?

Phillips is recalling a lot of theirs due to degradation of the foam soundproofing. They say the decision to continuing to use it before the repair is up to you and your doctor. My sleep doctor pretty much left it up to me.

They think the problem may have been caused by using SoClean type machines.

I can only wish the list was that short ....

its been a really good day .... first, 21 members of Maureen's family joined us for our annual Frogmore.... after eating some of us drove down to Brookings to fire several .... rounds of Trap .... must admit I thoroughly enjoyed both .... it appears the knee injury I experienced on July 3 is on the mend ... only a few days ago I wasn't anywhere near ready to fire 100 rounds ....

[JEBar]

we have a new neighbor .. .. don't see very many of these back home

[JEBar]

later today I hope to get down to Brookings to shoot Trap ..... Saturday we have a "Reveal" party for one of Maureen's nieces on Saturday followed by a family reunion on Sunday .... a steady of schedule of mostly family related events is most certainly fueling the afterburners of time that are helping to speed its passing

[JEBar]

beautiful morning ..Smile .. the family reunion that's on tap will be taking place in the city park directly behind our camper .... already up to 81 on its way to 91 later this evening .... a good possibility of strong thunderstorms around midnight .... no trap shooting today, my knee simply can't handle it
