The Hobo Camp Fire Is going well #VIII.. Stop In!!!

[ezdays]

Good morning everyone, going to be another nice weekend here though Monday. Good thing because we're going target shooting on Monday. Big change starting Tuesday, I see one forecast that calls for 100% chance of rain through Thursday, and a bit lower on Friday. Big risk on their part, other say 70%, as always, giving them an out when it doesn't rain. Temps going down by 15 to 20 degrees as well, they all seem to agree on that. Winter is finally showing up here in the desert.

Most of those fixer-upper shows are all pre-planned and rehearsed, just like those house hunting ones. Your house has to be bought and at least in escrow before they consider you for the show. "This Old House" is educational as much as entertaining and they say it's not rehearsed. They used to have the homeowners participate and you knew the budget. You never knew how much was donated though. Now days, they seem to do it all without the homeowners, except when it's time to pick out the wallpaper and tile. Still, they are a lot more "reality" than those others. I too wonder how some of these shows miss some obvious clues to "hidden" problems not found during the initial inspection. Same goes for some of these restaurant remodels. "this it ten years of grease on this vent hood", or, "this refrigerator hasn't been cleaned in years". How did this get by the county inspectors all these years? Or how they are able to get new signage and teach the cooks and servers a whole new menu in just a few hours. One has to wonder just why these are all called, "reality" shows.
