I want to take it easy today in order to dance tonight at the New Years Eve party. i added one more hanger to the drip watering line then used mason jars on each dripper to measure their output for 1 minute. One dripper on the ficus was low so I opened it up another half turn and ran the test again. Each dripper should be opened one full turn to get 20 oz of water in a one minute period. I then put the drippers back into their respective plants. After a lunch of leftover ham buns we ran the water live and looked at the saucers. All seems to be well.
I rigged up a second projector as a take up reel for the Wolverine so i could digitize rolls that are larger than 5 inch. My results are mixed. I gave up 3/4 of the way through and cut the film at a splice. I'll digitize the rest of the roll onto a 5 inch take up spool.
It was freezing cold when we left for the Matthews house party. I wore Dad's overcoat which fit perfectly and was quite heavy and warm. I don't know why I did not wear this until now. We sat with the Kretchmans, Art & Nancy, the Rumleys and the Cains There were some very nice hand passed snacks going around including shrimp, crab cakes and chicken. there also was a small buffet of snacks and an open bar. The poor bar tenders were outside in the freezing cold. The music turned loud and club like in the final hours so we bailed out and went over to the studio to see if the party was still going on there. only Mitzi, Robert and another couple were there which was shocking. Brian and Jennifer ended up at the studio as well, leaving the Matthews house behind. We had a nice quiet pay at the studio from 11:30 until midnight. It was perfect.
