I'm curious-- what was so hectic about the old movies? Or did DH make your week hectic? And why would you spend an entire week watching movies?Spent a very quiet day after a hectic week with DH watching old movies.

I spent the day troubleshooting our icemaker. It came down to either the $150 icemaker or the $30 solenoid on the water valve. The water line to the icemaker looked clear and we had plenty of flow through the in-door water dispenser, so it didn't seem to be a water problem.
Then I read a post by a guy who managed to jumper the power connection for the in-door water valve to the icemaker's water valve solenoid. By pushing the right levers, he could see water squirting out the icemaker water fill line. I tried that trick and obtained the same result. So tomorrow I need to buy a new icemaker. ....
My number-one source of appliance troubleshooting & repair wisdom is the Appliance Samurai at FixItNow.com.My icemaker has been working sporadically. Sometimes it will work for a day and produce ice and then it won't produce ice for days on end. The in-door chilled water works fine so there seems to be water getting to the unit. Any ideas from your recent troubleshooting experience on what it might be?
You may want to check your freezer's temperature. Sometimes the first indication of a freezer that is not cold enough is that the icemaker is erratic or very slow. Without a freezer thermometer it's hard to tell the difference between a freezer that is at the proper 0 degees F and the too warm 25 degrees F.My icemaker has been working sporadically.

Spent the day on Harrison Lake in our new boat. Found a deserted beach and lunched there, did a little fly fishing from shore. Then down the Harrison River, more fishing, lost my hat when DH tested the top speed and an anchor that refused to let go of some rocks but it was still a fabulous day with salmon leaping in the river and an eagle fishing along side us.
That can happen! Photography is one of those hobbies that has no upper limit on what one can spend. The camera is a Nikon D7000 and the lens is a Nikon 85mm DX (APC format, not full-frame) macro. So a bit over $1,500 right there, and that's not even high-end stuff.
In one of the classes I took I asked a pro who ran a studio if the high-end gear makes a significant difference. He said that one does get to a point of diminishing returns - yes, it does make a difference and gives you more options, but the closer one gets to the top the fewer the returns. So I'm happy with this and it's better than anything I've ever used before.
I shoot raw and processing is done in Lightroom 4.1 and if needed Photoshop CS6 (bought on sale).
Saw this clinging to the screen on the back porch all day yesterday. I guess it was drying out since luna moths only live a week as adults.
That would have made a great place to hang your block and tackle to kill and dress your own beef.Today light workout at the Y. No sauna, last week work was done on the pool, on refill and re-start they burned out the pumps. The sauna is in the pool area, when pool is closed so is the sauna, yecch.
Resting up from work at the camp. Where I removed and dismantled an power distribution pole and platform. The date code on the pole is Feb 1940. The platforms were 1/2" angle iron. Heavy stuff poles were 40 foot tall. Removal improved the view.
In one pole there were many ant colonies, nearly 25 feet up. They were most unhappy about having to move out.
