| About 3/4 of the Yukons have been harvested. |
Well..., the harvest has begun in earnest now..., but before I bore you with the Potato Pictures..., I need to update you on the electric heater repair that began last week.
The heating elements arrived Monday and I got one of them installed in the heater that I had already disassembled and removed the bad one. It appeared to be functioning properly..., and I even had two screws left over..., so I put them in a jar with all the other left over parts from other repair projects I have worked on.
So anyway, I was feeling pretty confident and packed the other heater out of the little trailer and disassembled it and found the bad element and replaced it with the new one. Put everything back together..., but sad to say..., I didn't get to add anything to my left over part collection😢 I packed it back to the little trailer and plugged her in..., thinking that I would soon be demanding a multi-year contract extension with a substantial pay raise..., and of course a substantial signing bonus as well..., when that damn green light started blinking again😢
Back to the work bench me and the heater went..., and if I had removed the left side panel first..., I would have noticed that somehow the electrical connection had failed to be connected..., but I had removed the right side panel first..., for no good reason as it turned out.
So now I have two good heaters and a good spare for emergency purposes..., and though the new contract and raise and bonus are probably out of the question..., I am hoping that I won't be placed on waivers or demoted to the practice squad😁

| The beer can is there for perspective..., but it was put to use after the picture. |

| Some more seed potato size taters. |
 |
| Some more nice ones. |
 |
| They can't all be seed potato quality..., but there are a few there. |
 |
| All available apace was put to use. |

| Not sure what kind of varmint got into this one !!! |
All in all..., I would call it a really good harvest..., not many real small potato salad side..., but I am still working on that batch of Fingerling potato salad size from last week 😁
Well..., not sure if you noticed that I posted a Cody Jink song last week for your Friday Nite Music Video..., that I had already posted earlier..., I don't think I have posted this one..., couldn't find a lyric video..., the lyrics below.
Well, looks like all is well on the Ranch. Spud harvest is really good.
ReplyDeleteGood to see Watson over to see you.
Yeah..., I have all the Yukons dug up now..., still have half a row of the Fingerlings to harvest. Dave is looking good and feeling good..., just like me..., and Logan is just beside himself about seeing Baja again..., Che and Bindy are still a little shy..., but we are all having fun !!!
