I came 25 north, got on 80 at Cheyenne all the way thru to 84 just outside of ogden then 84 all the way to Portland then 5 north. there were other shorter and faster ways to go, but I was pulling my trailer that was overloaded and just chose to stay on the interstates and spend a bit longer time and mile wise just to be safe. that is all beautiful area.

as I was compiling this here thread, I ran it thru the oven again for its second seasoning. I will probably do this a total of 4-5 times to ensure that it gets a good seasoning and will be ready to go for another 100 years. here is a quick search on this process: https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#q=cast+iron+electrolysisand I actually watched this guys video to get a general idea of what to do. I will continue to read and learn about this process so that I can provide accurate information if and wen asked later on down the road.

I heated up the oven and gave it a good rubdown with some Crisco and gave it its first seasoning.

that container is 13 gallons and I think I filled it up to about 3/4 full and mixed in probably 3/4 - 1 Cup of washing powder
I forgot to take some pics at this point, but will be doing the other 2 pieces and I will get pics then to add to here.
I let this sit and cook for about 8 hours yesterday, and here is how it came out.

as I started looking at these, I decided to do up this here thread and show folks just how clean (and easy it is) you can get a piece of cast iron like this clean with a little electrolysis bath.
so I assembled the following items:
1. cast iron pan
2. plastic container large enough to submerge entire piece
3. a nice thin piece of steel
4. a box of washing powder (sodium carbonate) DO NOT USE SODIUM BICARBONATE (baking soda)!!!!! you can get this at walmart in the laundry section or order it on line. I believe you can actually make your own by "baking" baking soda.
5. a "dumb" battery charger. you can not use one of those new fandangled computer controlled ones, because in order for those to work the charger has to sense / read a return voltage before it will turn on. where as the "dumb ones" will just turn on when told to.
6. water to fill container with
7. a wood dowel to hang the piece from
8. a zip tie
9. some clamps (to hold the steel piece in place, because having to pieces of metal touch while electrified would not be a good thing.)
I had to return that charger because it was one of those smart ones and got me a dumb one from oriley's

so wen I was at the dump the other day getting rid of all the crap that has accumulated at this house from all of the previous tenants (land lord reimbursed cost of dump $116) I saw a guy fixin to throw some cast iron pans away. I gave him a holler and after a quick conversation he gave them to me.
as I was looking these things over to see if they were actually good or not, I realized that he just gave me 2 10" pans and one small little newer lodge 4" one. I told the man thank you and took them home.
here is a pic of one of the 10" ones that is getting done up for my step daughter.

well, sunday was spent cutting the grass, weed eating, edging and getting this here tree cleaned up so that it can breath again and not look like a pile of spilt boo boo.
then I spent a little time on this here massive machine removing some garbage compost piles from my yard as well as using the back hoe part to rip out a 10' x 10' area of neglected pile of spilt boo boo black berry bushes.

whats making it even worse, is that we are having to wipe EVERYTHING down before we put it in its place! When you live in a dusty sharthole with single pane windows that let everything come thru the cracks and settle all over everything!!!!!!!!!!
Have i ever expressed how much i hated that sharthole of a town (el paso)

well, the trip back to the PNW was very uneventful! I left 42713302016 (for the civi's that would apr 27 2016 at 130pm (month / day / hour / year)), spent the night in Renton, NM. then headed out and spent the next night in Ogden, UT. then pulled into the north side of Lacey, WA. at 42918302016. B.B. pulled that trailer like a dream (considering that I was 200lbs overweight on the trailer and I had like 3K on top of the drive axle). I had a 9 MPG average up to Renton, a 11-13MPG average thru Colorado and Wyoming (20-30mph winds right up my ass all the way thru Wyoming most likely had something to do with those high numbers???) and then thru Oregon and Washington I was down to 7-9MPG (the 6%up and down grades had a big part to play in that). during the trip, black betty gave up her ghost that was in the EGR and so now I get a CEL everytime I start her up, also I now have a glow plug #2 CEL as well. so 30 mar 16 Tracey and I went to look at this house http://seattle.craigslist.org/oly/apa/5524093081.htmlit sits about 2 block off of a lake, on 1/3+ acre, a bit small (but its only tracey and I and 2 dogs), and in a very quiet neighborhood. the yard needed a ton of work and there was a lot of maint work that needed to be done to the house, but that was cool because it would have given me something to do. now the downside there were 3 different ads for this same place put up by the homeowner, 1 said $1200, 1 said $1300 and the morning we looked at it, she posted another one that said 1350. as we were sitting there waiting for the home owner to show up, another couple showed up saying that they were there to look at the place as well. whatever! so the home owner shows up, and I took a quick look inside and then started to ask her (the homeowner) about what it would cost $$$ wise to get in the house. she said it would take first month, last month, deposit and a fee for each dog ($1300 first month + $1300 last month + $1300 deposit + $300 per dog non-refundable + $50 per person for a back ground check + $50 per person for an application fee for a grand total of $4700! I looked her directly in the face and told her that she was a crook and that I was going to report her to the housing authority, looked at tracey and said were out of there. Oh the joys of house hunting………… Ill keep everybody updated as to the current situation
