Just got back form Lowes.  I needed styro and cellulose insulation so I can make boxes tomorrow.  A nice man cut the Styrofoam into 2' strips for me so I could fit them in the Peamite.  He even helped me load them!  I always go to the Lowes in Petal rather than the closer one in Laurel because they are nice there.  In Hattiesburg they wouldn't cut styro for me.  I had to buy a damn knife and cut them myself in the parking lot.  Pissed me off.  They'll cut wood to size for you but cutting 3/4" Styrofoam is over their heads?  The hell with them.

We had a good time over at the Panduit open hose. #1 son, and family were there too...Mike still works there....close to 20 years now I'd guess.....they had a couple superb caterers also....most grilled food, but very good...even two  'Good Humor' ice cream trucks serving up your choice of favorites  |^|...it was fun... Jan enjoyed swapping tales with some her old friends... :)

I think they are more sensitive to water parameters than Angels.  I've had Cacatuoides a couple times and they never did too good in my horrible water. I gyess they do alright in the right water.

...our tap water is neutral PH and pretty soft.......even if I'd need an RO blend after that, it's doable....we'll see......Miranda's bringing me some shell dwellers she's working with...those will be fun too  ;)

I was fixin' to post this on Simply in a response to a thread that I started.  Then I got to thinking that there are more folks here than I know of there who know excellent music when they hear it.  Read all the credits and enjoy  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X72fXW5Cs3U
