Sunday 5-7 Happy Sunday


Hope everyone had a Happy Sunday.

Larry started out the day by treating for wasps. He found seven nests under the eaves and porch railing. While he was doing this he noticed a lot of grass and weeds poking out from around the bulbs of the floodlights on the back of the house, the back of the house is quite high but with the new ladder he was able to get up there and remove the bulbs, some kind of flying bug had built nests in between the bulbs and the housings surrounding them, we seldom use those lights but the heat from the bulbs could have caused a fire.

Last spring Larry replaced the brake master cylinder on the boat trailer, the brakes worked fine for part of the summer and then they quit, we only haul the boat a short distance and the truck stops fine even without brakes on the trailer but Larry wants everything to work correctly. This morning he removed one of the brake calipers to check it out. He took it apart, cleaned everything up and reassembled it. He put it back on the trailer and filled the master cylinder with brake fluid to bleed out the air and discovered a leak in the brake line. The brake line runs inside the frame of the trailer and it was badly corroded in a couple of places. He went online and ordered new line, it should arrive tomorrow. When Larry does a project he hates to not finish it but sometimes he doesn't have a choice.

While Larry was doing these projects I did some Sudoku. When he finished I barbecued hamburgers on the charcoal grill. They came out great.

After lunch I worked on my jig saw puzzle Kim Norlien Country Music. I tried to finish the puzzle before our trip but I didn't succeed so I started back on it today.

In the evening we watched YouTube videos and a couple of Amazon movies. The first movie was a 2015 movie Hello, My Name Is Doris starred Sally Fields. It was a comedy about a sixty something woman who took a self-help seminar that inspired her to romantically pursue her young co-worker. It was a cute movie. The second movie was a 1994 movie A Man Of No Importance starring Albert Finney, it wasn't a very good movie..
