Thanks space.
I was out at the house this morning and it looks like we have failed both tests. I have to do two tests on the plumbing. First test is to fill the water lines with air and see if they will hold the pressure. We started at 50 psi last night and it got down to around 12 degrees. We expected to lose a little pressure from the cold, but it was down to 25 psi. What that means is I now get to take a squirt bottle of soapy water and start testing the hundreds of joints and connections to try and find which one/ones are leaking. Fun...also still need to complete the second test which involves filling the drain and vent pipes with water and seeing if they hold. In order to do this you have to plug the drain line before the septic/sewer and lucky me, we can't get it plugged up. The only alternative as of right now is to go under the house and cut the main drain line and plug it there. This means I get to try and pull the plug out with the lines filled and then try and put the pipes back together as quickly as I can so I don't fill the under neath of my house with water. Hope everyone else has as much fun as me today....lol

I;m a little late getting on here today. Had some work to do around the house this morning. Then took off in M/C. this was the longest trip she's been on so far. I was gone about 4 hrs. Put on about 145 miles. Had to do some Christmas Shopping. Also shopped for me also . I visited two Harley shop's !!!! Looking at new Harley's mmmmmmmmmmmm ! man they look so SWEET. I think this spring it might be time to buy another one. that would be # 9. Not sure If I want a new one. Maybe a 3 or 4 yr old one. The prices are a little steep for me. I figure if I buy one in say April or may. I could be ridin again by June or with luck the end of May. Think I just might sell the Chevelle and get one. ? I think I spent 2 1/2 hrs in St Paul Harley-Davidson.
