Hooked up the trailer and got some 2x4's from the greenhouse. Finished up the garage shelves then hooked up the blower and cleaned everything up. When Libbie came home she went out to Home Depot and had them match the blue garage paint. She then painted the shelves. They look nice. Dinner was pasta from Trader Joes. The Arduino came today. I downloaded the FTDI drivers, installed them and familiarized myself with programming on the Arduino. Made the cables for the upstairs temperature but that's a little beyond my level at this point. I'm still learning how to walk before I can run. I tried the UPS on the Arduino. Wow, the regulator on the Arduino gets hot. I need to feed the device with way less than 12 volts with a pre-regulator that has a big heat sink!

I put the brackets up for the filter supports. I'm now ready to start the plastic plumbing. First line will be down to the water tank input.
