Everything Keeps Breaking... Good Thing I Keep All This Crap | LOTS 901

This was apparently the week everything decided to break.

First the RV door handle snapped—and naturally it's an obsolete part that's basically impossible to replace. Then Starlink went down and looked suspiciously like another dead dish. Then my truck's tire-pressure warning came on and I discovered something I'd never seen before: a rock had actually punctured the tire.

The good news? I had the old RV parts. I had a spare Starlink cable. And I had the tire plug kit and compressor in the truck.

Maybe keeping useful crap around isn't such a bad idea after all.

We're also hunting hornworms after dark with a UV flashlight. If you've ever tried finding those giant green bastards on a tomato plant during the day, you know how ridiculously well they disappear. Under UV? Completely different story.

There's also progress on clearing the future solar field, plans for the wooden racking that'll hold 36–42 used panels, the continuing battle with bubbles in the cabin floor, and some thoughts about where the solar-build video series is going next.

Then Kori found a box of deer antlers on Facebook Marketplace.

So naturally we drove an hour to buy them.

The dogs approved.

Thanks for spending part of your morning with me.
