I arrived at the farm around 6:30 this morning. It was cloudy and humid and looked like it might rain. But the big problem was that we didn’t have power. We messed with the breakers and did everything we could think of before calling the power company. I figured the area lost power because of storms last night. Well they sent a guy out and he tested and saw that we had power coming in. We had been trying to get the compressor to run, but he suggested we try another tool, and it worked. So I thought the compressor was bad and was bracing myself to buy another one. But then my dad let some air out of the tank and it kicked on. It was just full. Oh well, live and learn and look stupid. Once that issue was resolved we made some pretty good progress on the siding. It was miserably hot and I drank 1.75 gallons of Gatorade. That probably wasn’t enough. The electrician came and worked a bit but he said the plumber was in Florida. After my dad left I spent some time cleaning and organizing the job site. I think that tomorrow should be a productive day. Everything is set to get quite a bit more siding up. Fortunately they have decreased the chance of rain.
