Just stayed there for work and had plenty of drinks at that bar. Rooms were pretty nice. Top 3 in Vegas for me.

A lot of wind in the face but it sure does make the lake smaller.

I hope so. I want to install one in my trailer. There’s so many brands it’s confusing.
@Riverbound would be the one to tell you the best brands.

We’ve always installed Daikin on our projects and in friends and family’s homes. They haven’t let us down yet.

Then again if a cheap unit is $6-900 and last 5-6 years you might still be money ahead throwing in a new one. Just inconvenient if it breaks.

Brands like Mr Cool come 100% install ready, including precharged lines. A Daikin etc would require you vacuuming the lines before pressuring the system. The Daikin condenser comes precharged for something like 15-30ft of line set.

I don’t know a Cameron at LA city fire.
For some odd reason when we worked together I thought he said you had married his mom or something of that nature. The guys name is Cameron Clarke and he used to talk about his step dads eliminator eagle

Hanging out in El Dorado County with good friends, doing some wine tasting and grilling 35 day dry aged Prime New York strips on the Komado Joe! (and a salmon for the Mrs.)

Boating, . . well I'm on the boat, . . in the water at least. Sanding and varnishing the cockpit brightwork that I've let get away from me the last few years. As a result I now have to take it down to bare teak and begin building it up. I can't think of a more enjoyable way to spend a four day weekend. ;)

Working in roofing, location made the job better. The job itself sucked, but it definitely sucked less with a view of the harbor, the beach or the ocean.

I've told many people that when I worked in Florida, it's hot and humid, but staring at the Gulf all day made life much much easier. I always kept trunks in my work truck, right after work right into the water.

Plumbing.
Replaced the kitchen sink faucet & dishwasher lines and vent.

Replaced & flashed one of the stand by/camping generators ecu boards & battery then serviced the fuel system.

That was awkward and hard to get at. What should have been a 10 min job took an hour. My super extra-long needle nose pliers were essential.

Replaced serpentine belts and tensioner on the Mazda 6.

Took the kids to breakfast.

Mowed the front lawn. Trimmed the rose trees.

Watching the Dodger game with the Wifie.
