bad day (AKA Monday), Mar 9th, '26...

British Columbia has decided to move to daylight savings time permanently so theoretically this was our last time change. Should be interesting to see how this pans out....
There has been several news stories about that decision which have left me curious about how the decision was made. Every single health expert / sleep expert / researcher that was interviewed stated that going to standard time permanently is the better choice as far as peoples health, sleep patterns, circadian rhythm, etc., goes. I can understand why B.C. would choose to stop the biannual time changes. It does seem strange however that they would ignore the advice of all of the experts, whom I am certain that they consulted at great expense, and choose what those experts consider to be the wrong time standard to adopt permanently.
 
Morning Martin & All from sunny, Southern Utah!

Currently it is 57F, up from 32F, and heading for 63F. Got a breeze blowing from the S @ 5 to 9 mph, later, the winds will be out of the SW @ 17 to 24mph. Spring weather is expected for the next week or so.

Congrats Chuck! 54, that's great!

Stu, glad the operation is over, and on to the healing!

Yesterday I got a call from my brother, he's in the hospital for some observation. Haven't heard any more, today. :pray1: that it's not serious.

Today I plan to get started on the backyard, to set up for the Greenhouse I bought last month.

Eggs, bacon, toast & OJ for the morning start. Pepsi(s) later.

Anyone :bl13:, have a great day on the roads! :hat3:
 
There's also 2 other simple fixes:
1. turn the bike upside down so no oil comes out the plug.
2. don't forget the crush washer to begin with.
I'm leaning towards Option #2, which actually is my go-to until this last Saturday...
But I am highly skilled in finding NEW and sometimes creative ways to foul something up.
Sadly, this is the extent of my "creativity."
 
@Sadlsor You can always replace the drain plug with a Fumoto drain valve, and attach a short hose to the valve. No tools, no crush washer, no dropped plug. I put one on the truck. It’s nice, real nice.
I keep going back to considering this, through several years.
And I keep doing nothing towards that end.

This is the official explanation. Mr. Eby has never let facts, logic or truth get in the way of what he would like to do.
