Reporting live. An ambulance and six police cars including the animal control truck two houses down the block (this one) ... now there are three cars plus animal control. Guess that's it for today's excitement.

Plumber is fixing my gas pipes. There are new pipes in the ground.
Update 12/15/19: Plumbing mostly done. Plumber returns Monday. Then inspector. Then gas company. I estimate 1/4 of the cost is due to regulations requiring things of no practical benefit.

That's a long time without a hot shower.
Enjoy one of the finest benefits of civilization when he's done.
Reporting back, the lake froze over here -beautiful clear ice, so smooth... but too thin to skate on.
Then it snowed a little followed by rain and goodbye smoothness.
I have rejoined the primitive world. I have fire! I have taken a blazing hot shower. Soon it will be 80F or 85F in here thanks to my fire powered heater. I am eating eggs cooked with fire! The gas company reconnected me today.

There. I went ice skating. Mostly sunny, thin high overcast, 14 F / -10 C . GPS says 3.09 miles / 4.97 km; a little snow but not enough to matter much. Smooth but lumpy. Too bumpy for any high speed stuff but enjoyable anyway. Didn't fall down. # LakePointeSkateReport
PS: Got droned while I was out there. Hope he got some nice footage.
This weekend was the annual hang glider fly in. High winds discouraged most pilots but a few arrived and they got to fly some. A video for 2017's fly in is there too (link). I haven't made 2018's video yet.
