He's ok, I just did some work on the cooler Myself, I had the time and I was feeling good enough to do some work on the cooler. I mostly just bought the parts, some local and some online.

____________

They are pretty much standard parts and any hardware store has them.

Around here, it's the Home Depot, Walmart or the net..

If she did, you might end up with Kansas' weather.

If she did, you might end up with Kansas' weather.

To have total Kansas weather, one would need Kansas type terrain, the west coast has too many mountains in the way for that to happen. Out here Thunderstorms don't develop tornados, the closest to that would be Long Beach CA.

Outside temp 71F, Humidity 21%..

Someone is coming out to look at what is wrong with My gas heater on Monday, I think, if not, I'm told I can apply for emergency repairs in either October or November 2015.

Gee Vic, if you need some hot weather.....

I couldn't wait that long, so I set the oven to 350F and stopped crunching, crunching just wasn't putting out enough heat.

Now the temp is 75F inside, predicted high for today 62F, currently 57F and Thunderstorms are predicted.

Guess what? California grows most of the veggies for the US, as this article Here points out..

Ikerd, who taught agricultural economics before becoming an advocate for sustainable farming, grew up in rural Missouri, where he estimates that the majority of the food he ate came from within 50 miles of his home. At that time, the Midwest was still covered with small and mid-sized farms growing a diverse portfolio of crops. Ikerd described a tomato cannery in the town where he grew up, built to process the tomatoes grown in the farms from the surrounding area. Orchards, too, were once plentiful throughout the Midwest, growing apples and fruit for markets both local and national.

But the tomato canneries and the orchards that Ikerd remembers have largely disappeared, replaced by fields upon fields of corn and soybeans, commodity crops that government subsidies help make the quickest, fastest way to profit in the Midwest. From 1996 until the most recent version of the Farm Bill, farmers that grew commodity crops like corn and soil were actually prohibited from also growing specialty crops like fruits and vegetables on their land. Anyone who grew a specialty crop on land meant for subsidized commodity crops would have to forfeit their subsidy and pay a penalty equal to the market value of whatever specialty crop they grew, a policy that did little to discourage farmers in the Midwest from becoming large producers of one or two commodity crops. The U.S. government spent almost $84.5 billion dollars subsidizing corn between 1995 and 2012, and a good portion of corn crops does not make it to a plate, instead used as ethanol or feed for livestock.

Of the corn that is intended for consumption, much of it ends up as high fructose corn syrup, which is now so ubiquitous it encourages maximizing the yield of corn at the expense of agricultural diversity. From 2002 to 2012, the amount of land dedicated to growing the nation’s top 25 vegetables fell from 1.9 million acres to 1.8 million. In the same amount of time, corn production grew from 79 million acres to 97 million.

“The deeper people look at it, they’ll see it’s a deeper part of the whole,” Ikerd says. “It’s not just a California drought problem, it’s a problem with our whole food system.”
