Still haven't been able to guess the make model or year, eh? That's the prerequisite for the ladder test!!!

Shawn is very cryptic in his description, so I was waiting for the undercover photo! I know you were getting the new "B", but did you get this other one too?

 

[SaraB]

Nice, one for each of us to drive to the LFS when I visit!

So I guess that answers the age old question......Will you drive or will you be driven?

The 100G tub was plumbed in last night and now I'm just waiting on a delivery of salt so I can fill it up and start it running!

Got one shot of Gary and Ed working on adding the wye to the exising drain line. Thanks to both of you for helping with my never ending projects!

Great progress Sara, when is the salt being delivered?

Thanks Dan! I was able to finally get the salt on Wednesday evening, so I have about 60 gallons ready and I'll need to make about another 30 on Monday when we are back home from snowmobiling this weekend. Gary will be over Tuesday evening and we'll turn on the flow to the tub then.

Hope your planning and working in advance for the move of your system is going well!

I can sit quietly for a bit, but I'll have to try it out myself for sure!!! So is it the 2011 Flying Spur?

Nope, Its the new Mulsanne. It was the first one in North America. But I kept the Flying Spur for shopping trips etc.

You need to put the snowmobiles away and get to work . I have to say I do miss have a snowmobile, so I guess I understand.

Right ... how to explain that to the hubby ... as I'm sitting in Minocqua, WI watching the snow start to fall.

I HATE bulkheads ... especially leaky ones!!! One fixed and the other one can be dealt with tomorrow

 

[SaraB]

Finally got the Rubbermaid Tub water tested on Wednesday and stopped the 2 bulkheads from dripping water!!! I have a photo, but for some reason RC is not letting me add Smilies or an image since last night ... grrrrr! Maybe I'll try again later!

 

[DanW]

Nice Sara, it always feels great when you stop a drip. BTW what are those pink, blue, orange and purple things hanging from the brackets behind the tub.
