Sometimes the Old Ways are the Best Ways! :) A BEAUTIFUL 65 degrees here this morning, low humidity. Putting on my new hat and hitting the garden after a quick breakfast.

No rain here until Friday. So glad I got the mowing done, yesterday. Plenty of inside chores stacked up around here for a rainy day...or books and a stack of movies. Decisions, decisions! ;)

Just checked the weather - they updated it to add showers/storms for my area this afternoon.

Terrific. Uncle!

Was 67 here and never low humidity. Still 66% and always starts out higher so I’m guessing near 80%. After tomorrow, chance of rain every day again. Never over 90 though.

Got the ground wire run to the old fridge. Picked up a ground lug strip that I can ground a dozen things to and screwed it to the raised panel in the back of the fridge, which I also got installed. Heading back out to put some blocks of wood in the bottom to set my toolbox on and keep it high enough to open the bottom drawer. Then I’ll see about putting a shelf above that.

I need an ethernet cable coupler because 50’ of cat5e cable wasn’t quite enough from shed to tunnel. Needed 60 but it comes 50 or 100. With a coupler, I have a 10’ cable I can add. Then I can mount the controllers up high in the fridge.

For now, I might lower the network switch in the shed down near the floor which will give me 3’ slack on the fridge end.
