It's leaking into the base. The gaskets are in good shape, and I spent a couple of hours trying to clean things up.

I'm tired of make the beast with two backsing with it.

It also could be an electronic issue.

I'm still tired of make the beast with two backsing with it.

Yeah I get that.

We had a problem. Something like that with ours when it wasn't draining correctly. Water was making its way into the base and setting off the moisture alarm which would kill the unit.

I ended up cleaning all the gaskets and all the screens and filters I could get at and it quit doing it.

I've done that several times.

Like I said, it's 12 years old, and the common wisdom is that's end of life. I was hoping I could get another couple of years, but it's looking like that ain't happening, and prices on new units will continue to climb.

I give up. I already bought a new one. It'll be here Wednesday.

Honestly, I think just do what you've been doing in years past. Small fire in the yard.

Bean mortar during the daylight.

Smiles all around.

Happy dog.

I'm liking that plan.

I'll burn the pile of legal, and illegal, stuff midwinter some year when noone gives a make the beast with two backs.

I really hope you can make it.

How the heck is dan going to bring a boat if he rides over with me?
Just askin..
If you drive the nicest car in the neighborhood, work in a cash business, and don't pay taxes, you're either a preacher or a drug dealer...

No more Monster.

I understand.

I watch my savings evaporate every day, and I'm still working.

Can't imagine trying to run a business...taking care of employees, and not making any money.

Yeah. Been paid twice this year. Might get paid tomorrow but that's not my department.
