I am actually working on it today. Finished the plumbing on my second return pump. There was no easy way to route the pipe, so I have been avoiding doing it. It is in a cramped space and me being old and decrepit, it was difficult to get too. I am just hoping I glued all of the dry fitted sections.
Yeah, I try to live a simple life. I am just trying to get all of my ducks in a row for retirement at the end of the year. Got all my bills paid and a little stashed away here and there. I hope to have more time to play with my hobbies and just do what I feel like doing.
What part of Louisiana was your friend from? I live about 25 miles from the Texas border, in the lower SW corner. Not too far from the Gulf. About 35 miles as the crow flies. I have lived in different parts of the country though, so I can't really claim 100% Cajun status.
