Only IKEA somewhat close to me is 100 miles away, smack dab in the middle of St Louis. I might shop their website.

I live in the land of hills, springs, trees and cows. For shopping for household items, there’s Dollar General and Walmart.

Oh boy. $910 worth of automation gadgets for $350 on ebay.

The X600M(M for meteorological) would give me a nice weather panel with compass for wind direction, record gusts, calculate wind chill, heat index and dew point and track lows & highs for temp/humidity.

I already plan on getting a rain gauge sensor and would get total accumulation over any period of time I choose. Barometer and Solar Radiation panels could be removed.

Maybe it will still be there when I have money to spare after the tunnel is done.


Grabbed some lime from Ace for the raised beds yesterday and a few packets of Ferry Morse seeds from walmart this morning. Basil, Chives and a salad mix that's supposed to be container varieties. When it gets too hot outside, I'll try those inside. By then, the grow lights will all be freed up. They say 1 gallon+ container. I'm thinking the bottom 6-8" of a 5 gal bucket would work nicely.

That’s what we have here. The next town over is a suburb of Indy, so it has most of the lower end retail places. Rarely do I need to go to the high rent district in real Indianapolis.
