Delivery day for the oxygen cylinders!

I got help loading them in the truck when I picked them up at the delivery point in Alamogordo.

Back home, I'm alone and the unloading was slower and deliberate. Fortunately, I only had to lower the cylinders off the bed. Raising them would have required a ramp or other equipment.

I got them into the garage before the next monsoon rainstorm.

I need to make a wall rack to hold them upright, safely, securely. I think I need to get a 20-foot stick of 1-inch square steel tubing from the world famous Basin Pipe and Metal.

Can I make an air liquefaction plant?

Watching the Uru people harvest totora reeds on Lake Titicaca! 🚤

This is how the floating islands are maintained - fresh reeds are constantly collected from the lake and transported back to reinforce the islands. It's incredible to see this traditional process that's been going on for centuries. The reeds decompose from below, so they need to be continuously replaced from above to keep the islands afloat.
