What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
I hope the little guy makes it!
Me too for my wifes sake. She asked what she should name it... my immediate response was ... "Stew"... she didn't seem amused in the least.
 
that's like truly an Easter bunny! Have we settled on a name yet?
Stew

Kidding, that was my response last night and Noreen was NOT impressed. I'm not sure what she named it. I'll text her and ask.

Kind of like I wasn't amused when my husband said my ruby red dragonet was not big enough to be bait...

He has a point though... just saying
 
Good morning! I’m just waking up here in the sunshine state!

(Slept in on a day off… I’m sure it sounds amazing, until I mention that I have a dentist appt in 2 hrs!)

Good morning, finally someone in Smorgasbord from the West coast... I'm always the last to get caught up in the morning 😅
 
@tharbin Did you see that the fridgepower gets released tonight? Not sure how much it is yet but wondering if it requires a manual reset if that battery drains.? My EV200 requires manual restart. 😠
That looks like a really interesting product. I didn't realize it was today it is being released. I was thinking about buying it but got a bit of a gut punch from our HVAC guy yesterday so probably nothing new for the next six or seven years. Makes me wish I was still contracting, I could just work harder for a while. Now, it's I need to live longer.

"Stu" might have gone over a little better.
