Mars was unusually close to Earth.
The ceilings were either too high or too low (I forgot to check).
I noticed what looked remarkably like an Indian burial ground in the back yard (it was explained away as a future deck expansion).
The greenness of the lawn threw off everyone's equilibrium.
Last but certainly not least. I had inserted two 38 MFD SCR polypropylene caps under each chassis the night before to make for safer traveling and something I did went awry.
Happy to report that after some tinkering this afternoon all is now well.
I want a rematch next week, and a take out order of those ribs and the chili.
Many thanks to The Culton Family for their hospitality and DR and Mrs. Cope for their many extra efforts.
What a really good time, thanks to all for making me feel welcome.
