Garage
Continuing the theme of easy projects that take a lot longer that first thought.....

It just took me 30 minutes to change a light bulb! The outdoor light bulb outside of the utility room was out. A simple unscrew and replace, NOOOOOOOO! I tried to unscrew it and the entire socket spins. No room to hold the socket, so I have to take the entire fixture off of the wall, take it to the garage, disassemble it, and fix the lose socket. Re-hang the fixture and then screw in the bulb.

I have a really cool piece of equipment in my office right now. It is a FLIR SC8300HD camera. One of the pieces of equipment that is as expensive as the airplane. It is literally cool in that it cools the sensor to minus 248 degrees. It has a little refrigerator in there that I can hear running, and that camera is huge. Google it if you wanna know more. Just know it costs more than a new 911.

It is NOT ours and we ain't paying fer it is the good news. We are using it for a customer's flight and it is just a project that we fly to the client's project, run the camera, and FTP the file to him, and FedEx back to him. Oh, and FedEx just dumped it on my front porch. They did not even ring the doorbell.
