East Coast meetup and elsewhere
-
@Madame Buttonfly and I will be hitting Pennsylvania & New Jersey in April. That is all I know…
We fly to Philadelphia on Wednesday 27th April and will spend a few days in Pennsylvania, then will be in Philadelphia for the weekend of 30th April/1st May (leaving on Monday 2nd May) - that's as detailed as the planning has got thus far!
-
One of those days, I'll meet up with you somewhere, hopefully. I'll bring the wine.
-
I may be stuck in Allentown. Huge snow storm starting tonight, continuing through Sunday AM. I'm finishing work today.
-
I was stuck in Allentown, Pa. until the 26th due to the snow, went to Chicago, Il, where I am now until tomorrow 1/30/16, then home one night, and on to Richmond, VA. until 2/6. LaMarque, TX. 2/8/16 to 2/17/16, which is outside Houston. And then in my spare time, having a Super Bowl party 2/7 at home.

@Giles and @Madame Buttonfly asked me what the water treatment system looked like that I install, back in October. The following pictures are what a room looks like after I leave. When I arrive its a blank room. This picture is of a boost pump which increases water pressure through out the system, including then a Multi media filter, followed by a water softener.
-
Next picture is a series of Carbon tanks that remove chlorine and chloramine that cities add to kill bacteria.
-
This is the Reverse Osmosis machines that remove 99.9% of everything from water.
-
Final photo shows where the water leaves the RO machines, and goes through an endotoxin filter which removes dead bacteria. Goes to a loop, and then returns to the RO machine. This is a basic system, and changes to where you are in the country, to what additional components you may have.
-
Thanks @ROman - it's really fascinating technology. Hope your Superbowl party went well, sounds like a lot of fun. Am looking forward to sharing a bottle of wine with you before too long!
-
Thanks @Madame Buttonfly , the party was good, it's just hard to get going today, and then getting on a plane for Houston. I'm really going to try to meet up with you guys in Phila. & NJ. somewhere along the way.
-
Forgive me for not being on this thread for a long time…
So anyone down to meet up one weekend in the future? I am 2 hours above Philadelphia, not too far from the Poconos.
-
Actually, Giles and Paula are going to be in Philadelphia area on 4/27 to 5/2. I am currently working in Philadelphia, looking for a suitable venue for an Iron Heart meet up on 4/30 and or 5/1. Stay tuned.
-
Maybe Michael at Norman Porter would be interested. Nice large work space. There is Rembrandts or Monks. Of course a hundred other places depending. In Ardmore, Tired Hands, perhaps upstairs at the original. Giles and Paula, I live 50 miles west in Chester Springs, about a 50 minute drive to Center City. You are welcome to stay, big house/property, lots of room and privacy. Or if anyone is coming from afar, let me know.
-
That's really kind, thank you. @Madame Buttonfly has already sorted accommodation out somewhere in central Philly. We would love to see you, so must make that happen….
-
Hell, only 2 hours away, on a weekend….maybe setup a lunch or dinner meetup over some good food and quality drafts? If there is time...
-
We'll be arriving in Philly by lunchtime on Saturday 30th April and leaving on Monday 2nd May, so 2 x lunchtime and 2 x evening opportunities for drinks and eats! (My poor waistline and liver are already groaning…)
Once our trusty venue scout, @ROman has given us his feedback, along with the other recommendations (thank you @apba1166 for your very kind offer and for the meeting place suggestions) we'll firm up a plan!
We're both looking forward to this trip enormously
-
@madamebuttonfly @giles consider Jake, Laura and I in. Can't wait to see you guys again. It's been way to long[emoji24]
