Pandemic, Tendon, Renovation – Part 15

11 September 2020

I had two people at the house yesterday. The first was an electrician representing Florida Power and Light and he was here to remove the On Call system. I wrote about the problems with the last post. Guess what? He said whoever wired the On Call system wired it incorrectly. I think I am six for six people who had told me that the system was wired incorrectly.

He had a real problem with the air conditioning unit that was wired to one of the On Call boxes. He couldn’t figure out what the AC company had done. I heard him talking to his supervisor and later he explains the AC people had wired the AC incorrectly by using the wrong colored wires for ground, hot, etc. He thinks the reason they did this is because the On Call was wired incorrectly. Regardless, the box is now gone and the AC still works.

The second visitor was to check on the 3 zone valve with my sprinkler system. He was a very nice young man who owned the company. He worked for probably and hour and a half (and that didn’t include his trip to pick up a part). My system apparently dates to the late 60’s or early 70’s. He cleaned the system and replaced the top of the valve (much like a distributor cap in autos) and charged $177.75. I thought that the best bargain I’ve had in some time.

September seems to be flying through the calendar. It will not be too long before the new cabinets arrive (September 23) and I get to go through the construction phase again. At least I had the foresight to purchase moisture detectors and spread them around potential leaks in the house – including the dishwasher. The dishwasher device allows you to monitor it via a phone app. So far, no leaks.

It rained most of the day yesterday. Usually September begins our dry season but I haven’t really had much need for the sprinkler system as yet. That will surely change.

Today, of course, is 9/11. I used to watch the twin towers as they were built when I was stationed at Governors Island in New York for radio school. I remember seeing the vast hole in the ground where they stood on another trip back in the 90’s. My last trip to New York I got to go up into the replacement tower and also see the memorial next to the new tower. It’s been remarked how the number of deaths from 9/11 is close to the dead we lost at Pearl Harbor yet we are now approaching 200,000 dead from a virus that more could have been done about.

Stay tuned and stay safe!

After 34 years in the classroom and lab teaching biology, I'm ready to get back to traveling and camping and hiking. It's been too long of a break. I miss the outdoors and you can follow my wanderings on this blog.
