I went outside this morning to mix up some Malathion to spray aphids that Libbie said we had on the Oleander. I didn't see any. While I was outside Jason from Crawl Space Tech came up the driveway to drop off the building permit sign off card. I spoke with him about the high humidity in the crawl space, 78%. He said the downstairs air is not running enough. I don't think so. Can't see how blowing cold air into the space is going to help anything. Will investigate a dehumidifier. Spent the morning assembling the garage door monitor froom Open Door. I broke the sonar sensor so I soldered in one I got from eBay. It works well. I mounted it on the ceiling and tried it but bricked the thing when I tried to update it with MQTT. Took it down and brought it into my office where I used the online tool to upload a boot loader and then upload the MQTT code.
It correctly sends out door status packets but does not respond to the button command to activate the door. I noticed there is no MQTT subscribe in the code so the callback never gets called.
We had an excellent Tango lesson with Robert. Our routine is quite fancy. He gave us the music and spent most of our lesson doing choreography. On the way home we stopped at Kroger and picked up the ingredients for Waldorf Chicken salad. It was delicious and was today's cooking light recipe.
