Home

Moving into a new home presents many puzzles. Currently working out this one:

  • 29 Cat 5e twisted pair runs
  • 8 RG6 Coax runs
  • B&O MasterLink network
  • Random one off cables
Pegboard wall in a basement utility area with tangled coax, Cat5e ethernet, and other cables connected to patch panels, network switches, a Brinks alarm panel, and a white router.

Today we closed on our new home! We weren’t looking but a truly unique and special property came on the market and we made the leap! We move back to the Lynnhurst neighborhood in a couple weeks. 📦

I can now declare some level of basic competency with the irrigation controller and its various programs, schedules, start times, durations, and zones. ⭐️

I successfully have three programs running complementary and differing start times and durations. 💦

We had a big exterior project done this fall that finished in the winter. With the snow gone, I offered the kids a bounty to find nails in the yard. They decided to donate the bounty to charity. Proud parent moment.
