It's about time.

Many of you can relate to Working long hours at your career. Raising your families. Buying a home and paying all the bills related to being homeowners and parents. We're now retired and don't need all that work and expense. Now "It's about time" and what we do to follow our dreams.

Rebuilds.

 Our Location today is Windsor, Ontario.

Mile seemed surprised that I already knew about the Feedscrew that needed to be Rebuilt. He didn’t realize that Vinnie the Engineer had filled me in yesterday. By the time it was set up with all the numbers entered into the Computer, then warmed up to Eight Hundred Degrees it was 7:30 before I hit the “Begin to Weld” button.

Since this was a Rebuild much more monitoring had to be done. It did require less Amperage and Powder to create the Hard Surfacing Base needed on the Flights. Fortunately welding on the complicated Mixer was not needed. Each of the Two Flights had Five Zones that took Three Hours each to complete. The worst part was not being able to go to the Restroom until after 2:30 when the welding was completed so the Torch did not take off on its own.

I also got to talk with Kathy at that time saying it was possible I’d be leaving at 3:30. Vinnie delayed that by assigning me Two Jobs for tomorrow and showing me another Rebuild for next week. It’s Twelve Inches in diameter, long and weighs Four Thousand Pounds. That will take a least Two Days to weld alone.

Kathy was happy to see me walk in shortly after 4:00. Even though it had been a cooler day she accomplished things at the Trailer before stopping at Zehr’s grocery store for a few groceries we forgot to get on the weekend.

For supper we tried something different. We added Chopped Chicken to our Veggie Wraps. The Wraps tasted good before but by adding the Chicken it changed the taste completely for the better.

The Early Hours are catching up to me. I had to take my Shower early just to wake up and am struggling to write this Post.

Tomorrow’s another day.

  1. Hm. I could swear I've been commenting lately, but can't see anything. Well, we'll see if this one gets on. Glad to see you have an early leave from work!
