Sequim Irrigation Festival 2024 – Classic Car Show and Grand Parade
Show my 1931 Ford Model A Pickup and walk in the parade with fellow CERTs...two for one! What an amazing day! The Classic Car Show parking area was directly across the street from the Grand Parade registration and gathering area. And our CERTs group was number 3 in the parade, so we were right up front!
This is the second year that the CETS walked the entire route of the Sequim Irrigation Festival Grand Parade. And this was my first year as a CERT volunteer. Also, this was the second year that showed my Model A at the Classic Car Show.
Background:
The Dungeness River is the source of precious Olympic Mountains water that transformed the parched prairie into lush farmlands. The "big day" of the opening of the irrigation floodgates was on May 1,1896.

In this video I show the procedure for replacing the GFCI outlet in our 2022 Winnebago Travato 59kl with an identical OEM GFCI outlet. Unfortunately, this didn’t solve the tripping problem.

    You need a starter ring for the riser and seal it with butyl seal tape to the tank.

      Depends on the geology and soil type. Our house is built on a sandy ridge left by glacial deposits called a moraine. Water quickly disappears into the soil, which is perfect for a septic drain field, but terrible for gardens. And our septic tanks and drainage rate has been inspected and tested four times in the seven years that we have lived here, and each time it has passed without having to pump it out. Although mortaring the riser to the tank opening has been suggested, it is not required and has not been an issue because there is never any standing surface water in our yard. Thank you for your comment!

    That was peaceful, 20 years ago I held my German shepherd Khyber when we had to say good bye on a vets table - he was my best friend growing up and was with me everyday. At age 10 over a couple of weeks his stomach swelled up and he went off his food - we brought him to the vets and it was terminal aggressive stomach cancer, I looked into his eyes and spoke to him as the vet gave the injection - it was so fast the light in his eyes vanished in a second. Me and my sister both cried like little children ... I was 20 years old. His pain was over instantaneous, I don't know why we don't provide the same respect to ourselves when all that is left is pain.

    Randall, that was a great drive and your A is pretty sharp! Beautiful country there, too. One thing I'm curious about though- why do you say the gas valve won't turn? Your Zenith carb and the linkage looks to be set up correctly. If you turn it to the left, it will open the needle valve and allow more fuel flow. But you shouldn't need that on startup. All you should have to do is set the ignition lever one notch down and the hand throttle lever about halfway down, then briefly pull the choke as you crank the starter. The engine should start first or second attempt and run at a high idle until warm, then you can back off the hand throttle and pull the ignition lever all the way down for driving. Thanks for the videos. I love your A Pickup!

    Check out the capacitor before replacing the motor. (Videos on UA-cam) If you think about it, a garage door motor runs for at most a couple minutes a day. Meanwhile, your dishwasher/clothes washer and other motors run for thousands of hours before they fail.

    Its part of life but the treasured memories is priceless gift. I had my first dog when i was very young. From the moment it was a puppy until it got so old. It lost its teeth, its eyesight, it recognized remembers me by smell and voice. Love is a magic mix of happiness and sadness. When my dog's time was up because of old age he was vomitting blood and drop in front of me. But i know every last seconds matters because when i talk to him and says his name. His tail still wiggles to his last breath. Mercy killing on pet is not practice in my country and vet is not available in small towns. It was sad and beautiful at the same time. From that day on, im always a dog person

    For me, I do not agree euthanaisa practice. The fact is they may want to live even suffer. Why we judge and choose euthanaisa especially on own pet. Likewise, human who suffer pain, want to continue to live. Pain relief should be fine rather than euthanaisa.
