Hey all we are home

We had a great time at the carnaval - I swear though the rides were so old I bet they were the same ones from when I was a kid - I forgot my camera but took a few pics with my phone I just have to figure out how to get them on the computer

OK the locals have started the fireworks show and my little aussie is freaking out. I already lost him once tonight when he snuck into the garage and wedged himself between the brutes and the wall under the MH ballasts.

The other two dogs are just curled up underneath me looking for guidance. Can't wait until the town does their 90 minute display in about 20 minutes

Well I do live in a town full of roughnecks, plenty of beer and more gun stores than supermarkets. It only seems natural to add fireworks to the mix

Today, I go over there, after I feed the seahorse tank (which I did first), everything in the fish room cut off. The power tripped. And actually, every GFCI plug in the house stopped working. And I think the AC died too. But get this... none of the breakers were tripped except for the AC one. And when I flipped it back on, still nothing. It's as if one of the 110Vac poles isnt coming into the house anymore. Any ideas?

Anyways. I got an extension cord and plugged the return pumps and chillers in, but everything off down. He's probably worried sick, but I did all I could other than rewiring the house.
ugh Chris, I don't envy you on the trouble shooting - just try really hard to keep bubbles out of the pony tank and keep the temp down

Good evening/morning

Way to go on Erin coming home! And she even got to see the fireworks with the family.

KIA Thanks for posting all those cute photos of your two dogs.
