Diets and Zero G . . .
A number of you gave me gate guarding leads, and I really appreciate it. I’m going to start calling tomorrow, starting of course, with Jamie of Gate Guard Services fame.
And you never know. When I called him about this time last year, he didn’t have anything for us. But then he called us back two days later with our gate near Carthage.
Since not much happened today, I thought I’d update you on some of my recent repairs/upgrades.
Back in June, I replaced our dying/leaking water pump with this new Shurflo model I got from Amazon.
It replaced one I installed in 2008, soon after we bought our coach. And this one is quieter, more powerful, and cheaper than the old one. In fact it puts out a better shower than a lot of park’s shore water.
Next is our new Zero G RV and Marine Hose that we got a few months back. I’d been waiting for someone to come out with a flexible hose that was drinking water safe, and the Zero G fills the bill.
However, unlike those ‘Pocket Hoses’ on TV, the Zero G doesn’t expand. It just gets soft and very flexible. So much so, that you can just wad it up in a ball.
It seems very heavy-duty, with a canvas feel, almost like a fire hose. I really look forward to traveling this winter and not having to wrestle with a regular hose when it’s 40 degrees.
I’m a really lucky guy. I married a girl who likes military airshows, science fiction movies, and makes me take her to Hooters. And if that wasn’t enough, she also likes Battlebots.
We’ve really been enjoying the recent episodes on Thursday nights, amazed at some of the ideas that the contestants come up with, and enjoying seeing one of the robots coming apart in pieces and flying across the arena, or even catching fire and blowing up.
Wrapping up, I want to introduce you to blog reader Mary Klinger and her new website, Dietitian Delivers that I recently put online.
Mary is a Registered Dietitian and a Certified Diabetes Educator, with a Masters in Nutritional Sciences. Through her personalized counseling sessions, Mary specializes in creating a custom diet plan for you, whether just for better general nutrition, or helping to get your diabetes under control.
She has a couple of free downloads online, plus several inexpensive diet plans.
Check out her site.
Mary contacted me because she saw my ad on the right hand column of this blog.
So if you need any kind of web design services, give me a call.
