Yes, that's right, the propane tanks are all finished... scraped, sanded, painted and labelled. No one is more pleased than me. They look as good as 'battleship grey' propane tanks can look.
Did my first laundry here today. It is quite a system of recycling water. This means that the washer must be babysat in order to turn the recycling pump on and off as well as switching the hoses for filling and draining the washer before the rinse. The only dryer we have is the sun and wind. Today there was not much sun but lots of wind. The only real pain is the rust stains on so many whites and lights. That is the price of using well and rain water on an RO (reverse osmosis) system with filters that are hard to comeby.
The weather today was cloudy and windy but no rain yet. We need rain as it is our only source of fresh water. Drinking water is brought in although, theoretically, we can drink the RO water, it just tastes yucky. Yes I did drink some and no I did not get sick but it does not taste good.
That is all for now. More tomorrow.
