    Pool Temp too hot!

    I am over in Fort Worth and I have no problem it in the 90-92º range. I am up at 5:30 AM swimming laps and I would rather it be there than mid 80's at that time of day. Nice pool and like mentioned run a waterfall pump at night if you want the temp down.

    True hamburgers

    We normally eat lean but when it's time to grill burgers it's 80/20 for sure. Much better flavor. I will have to try the Greek burger.

    What's your current pool temp?

    Went swimming last night for the first time since we bought this house back in November. The pool was 72º yesterday and expect it warmer today when I get home as today was in the 90's.

    How do you figure out square footage of a hexagon?

    101.487 square feet if it is 12.5 feet corner to corner. In CAD however a hexagon 12.5 feet across points then shows the flat walls to be 6.25 feet (not 6.5). This should be close enough for you. This is area of the flat floor

    How do you figure out square footage of a hexagon?

    Give me some dimensions and I will give you the square footage. What is the dimension from one flat wall to another, or what is the dimension from one corner to the adjacent corner (point to point)?

    Whats behind the name?

    I flew Helicopters with the National Guard and owned a plane for 12 years. They called us Aviator’s so AV8TOR is just a play on the word.

    Sausage Fattie

    That's how this was made you can see the filling below. It had Fiesta cheese, portabella mushrooms spinach, green pepper and onion. You then roll it into the log and smoke.

    I usefully add the bacon for the presentation effect. Those were done for a work lunch. At home I just leave plain.

    Chimineas - Are they for looks or warmth?

    Not much heat from my Chiminea because of the limited amount of wood you can put in it. We bought it for looks and a way to burn pruning.
