I thought getting this new phone to work would be fairly easy but I was wrong. The problem is the new phone has a smaller sim card, so my older one wouldn’t fit. This meant I needed to get a new nano sim card, but I soon learned you can only get these from the phone guys and they had to do some programing on it.
I took off for Walmart this morning thinking I could get a nana card when I learned all this.
I don’t think I can get the new card by my carrier, before I leave on the trip I’ll be taking off on this week.
I’m thinking maybe I can purchase a card by the minutes or month that I can get from Walmart that I can get to work for a temporary fix, but I’m not sure about that.
I see another trip to Walmart tomorrow to find out.
Spring work
Last night I learned a Short on YouTube has to be less then a minute so I was back up to the spring to try to get what info I can on measuring spring flow rates in that minute. That made things real brief. That will have to do as this short is mostly to lead people into my YouTube channel to see the other stuff I have on tapping springs and to get people to subscribe for the other spring videos on spring tapping that I’ll be making.
Spring slide removal
Then I rode on down to this spring that has the slide on it.
I worked away for an hour or so removing the dirt and rocks and made a good dent in it.
A couple more times working on it should take care of the slide.
I hate getting new electronics. They always seem to require more purchases. I think that’s on purpose! Good luck … I know you will figure it out!!

Header Pictures
There are over a hundred pictures that are served up randomly every time you visit or change pages. They are of earlier pictures of interest and also some just to remind me of things.
A Sony AX33 4K, a video camera that takes stills too. What am I doing with that? I take pictures from my Kayak a lot. I found I was missing interesting shots, because my pic was being processed in my camera, before it would let me take another pic. Since I like to take what I call action stills, I bought this camera to take videos, that I could make stills out of, but, as a bonus, this camera also came with buttons to just take stills and that's what I mostly do, unless something is real interesting or too far away for my still zooms. My digilat zoom setting for video goes to two hundred x, and sometimes I need that, but usually, I only use the 10x lens zoom. Because this camera is HD and 4K, the quality has to be real good and it has a lot of stabilizers on it which really helps out a lot for taking pics on the water.
The other thing it has that is a must is a view finder and I had to buy Sony's top of the line cam to get it. This is a must for taking pics on the water, as you must hold the camera as still as posible and putting that eye piece to the eye forms a tripod with your arms that helps a lot. The eye piece is also a must as it works way better than a LED screen to see what you are taking a picture of in the daylight as the LED screens wash out easily in sunlight.
I also have another video camera, a Canon VIXIA G30. I use them both to mostly take stills. The Sony takes higher resolution stills than the G30. That was a bit of a disappointment as I bought the G30 to replace an older camera I dunked in the river, but then had to buy the Sony to get higher still picture resolution that the G30 was lacking.
New tech is always a pain. Good luck. Is this your trip to NV?
hey bob, maybe the slide spring is alot of trouble. perhaps you could plant ferns above
