As the picture shows, we’re not getting a lot of sunshine today. Same as yesterday, when there was abundant drizzle.
Today everything is dripping from the fog that’s been with us since last evening. If I wanted weather like this, I’d move to the coast where fog is almost a daily occurrence.
Last time I checked the solar panels’ output, it was something like 50 watts, two percent of its potential. Yesterday’s total input from the sun was less than half a kilowatt-hour. At current rates using utility power, that’s about 7¢ worth.
Makes you want to stay indoors and eat soup and play solitaire or something. I know—I’ll search the Internet and see what I can buy for 7¢. As long as that includes shipping, of course.

How about you set up a solar panel here in the Land of Eternal Sunshine and we dig a line underneath the four major mountain ranges, two national parks and five national forests and wilderness areas that lie between us, and you can have unlimited solar power.
Just a thought.
Good thought, Hil. It solves the problem of him being bored, too. Neat.
You two are brilliant! All we need is some capitalization. In today’s fiscal environment, we’re toast. Hm-m…toast. I’m hungry.
Hey, I'm eating toast RIGHT NOW! What amazing timing for me to read your comment!
