Took a trip for some groceries today and Isla got to wear grampys hat
She likes watching me out the window while I'm hauling tools Some of her first pony tails

Jerry,

Kind of looks like Gandalf & a cute version of Frodo.

IF you don't know who that is, watch Lord of the Rings..........

Nice Isla pics!!

Great pics Jerry. Hope we can meet her this summer

Made it back safe and sound. Left at 1 am from Atlanta and got off the hwy just north of Dayton, Ohio at 9:30 am and drove Ohio 66, US 127 Ohio 15 and Michigan 99 after that. Took a couple of hours more but there was very little traffic and I saw some cool small towns. Had a great time with the kids and grand baby and got a few chores done.

Couple funny moments, Thursday evening I was just finishing up working on the new water heater and walked into the kitchen as my SIL says "But your dad always makes dinner, what are we supposed to eat ". We ordered pizza. I made him a huge chicken enchilada casserole last night to get him by for a couple of days.

Saturday, after the new water heater was up and running I told my daughter that I probably couldn't fix Isla's play house in the back yard because it was supposed to rain. She says, straight faced as can be " well if you wouldn't have taken three days to put in the water heater". That made me laugh!

Congrats on the safe trip Jerry.

Anyone planning a group ice fishing trip in the near future?

After that it was smooth sailing and I got here about 3:30 am Thursday. Isla woke me up at 5:30 but she's battling a cold so wants little to do with me.

Thursday I laid down a game plan for installing a new tankless water heater. There was only one good place to exit the building with the PVC vent pipe and luckily there was nothing in the way. A trip to Home Depot for supplies and I got right to work. I had to cut through a double 2x10 rim joist and a brick exterior, which I decided to tackle Friday. I got the unit mounted in the mechanical room in the basement and started fitting 3" pvc together.

Today I got the hole cut through the rim joist, cut through the brick and got the pvc vent pipe and fresh air intake ran and the termination kit mounted. Next, I got the 3/4" gas line ran, but not hooked to the main line yet. Also the pex water lines ran but not hooked to the main lines and the condensation drain line hooked up.

Tomorrow I plan on tapping into the water lines and installing shark bite 3/4" T's, running a new 12/2 wire for an outlet near the water heater and changing a 3/4-3/4-1/2 black pipe T to a 3/4-3/4-3/4 T and hooking up the gas. Also have to cap off the water lines going to the existing heater and capping the exhaust port. With any luck, we'll be using the new heater for evening showers.

Temps down here are in the low 60's and upper 50's, perfect temp for this norther boy. I don't like real hot weather. I whipped up a bit kettle of beef stew and home made biscuit for dinner and we're waiting on my SIL to get home from work to eat. Hard to get used to 7:30 as supper time, at home that's almost bed time.

Probably head home early Tuesday morning, weather permitting.

Not just anybody has an HVAC installer that'll make an 800 mile house call. Kudos gramps!
