Starting the weekend with sparks weekend thread
Morning
Well my weekend started with sparks
My vent fan tripped my GFCI in the wetroom and Makenna woke me up to say that the tank was gurgling. Turns out my vent fan shorted out and tripped the GFCI that the return pump was on. I had a nice shower of sparks when I reset the GFCI. Good news is the tank is OK, bad news is I can't replace it till next week. Oh well.
Hope you all have a great weekend while I head off to the grind

Ouch Hop, made it through a grueling week at work, off for the long hot weekend, no road trips, the kids are off camping, I see a lot of pool time, and cold drinks in my future. I may do token yard work but not much

Sounds like just the kind of day you've been needing, Doug. Just kick back.
Phelps made it 7 for 7 but only by a fingernail in the last race! One more to go.
Hope everybody has a great weekend!

Morning everyone. I was going to try a run this morning, but it's pouring rain. I think I'll wait.

Good morning, everyone  coffee, omlettes to order and cowboy potatoes to fuel us up for the day.
Hop - that's a rude way to start your day. Glad to hear that your GFCI worked! Work has to be easier than that.

figured you'd say that, KIA.
This afternoon Bob and I will help his younger brother celebrate is 50th birthday. The celebration started last night with the surprise of another brother, sister and cousin coming down here from Conn.
See you all at lunch time, EDT.

mornin all
good luck with the house chores KIA and the rest of you with major things to do!
Doug - enjoy the pool, I wish we had one. I've always wanted one of those endless pools - but I'd settle for a hot tub right about now.
I am waiting for the good hubby to get moving and then smile nicely and ask for plumbing
keep your fingers crossed.

You're all awake, USA Basketball is about to tip it off against Spain, their stiffest competition. It could prove to be a very exciting game. NBC!
