Removing the stove top went smoothly and quickly, with the right tools.
That leaves me with some time to kill. Figured I would scope some seaweed spots for grome biomass. This particular spot has born bounty previously, but the shoreline is drastically different now. I’m inferring it was that storm before Christmas last year. I can’t say there is ZERO seaweed here, but there certainly isn’t enough to warrant bringing the trailer!
There’s a pleasant onshore breeze and a high layer of clouds obscure the full blast from the sun. A pleasant pitstop before work. My arrival time is settling in at 3:30p, later than I’d like to go in, but I’m a “closer” so it’s a backwards planning thing: have me there to clean and close the line with the goal of keeping me under 40 hours. It saves on labor costs.
The line core is working four days a week, well over 10 hour/shift. There’s just no way around it, with local staffing options. I’d place myself on the “support staff” roster. As a coworker said last night (one of the core) “I appreciate how versatile you are, what needs doing, man, you’re ON IT!”
Yes I am.
Regarding the home front from that perspective, I have the crucial stove part, I can begin tweaking the rocketstove. I MIGHT be able to slip the glass into the existing scenario, keeping the cast iron stovetop. Maybe…
