Slow Progress
Things are slowly starting to come together! Got alot if the boxes unpacked, still a mess but slow process. Brent’s been working on organizing the Blue Moon.
We are hoping to have a Thanksgiving dinner in the idk actually what you call it? It has a couch that makes into a bed for any of our own personal guests that come visit, has a TV, DVD, all our herbs.. We plan on using it for dinners, place we can hang out.. Comment and tell us what’d you call it!.

Overnight Visitors
We had visitors last night. Caught these guys on our security camera, think these are wild, as wild dogs been attacking cattle, goats, chickens. I don’t mind coyotes and other wild animals. But wild dogs are different, I feel bad that they aren’t being loved, cared for.. They probably was a pet at one time and most likely dumped out here in the desert.
They aren’t safe here, and most likely will be shot by the rancher, workers or a cattle agent. Pack of wild dogs isn’t a good thing. I wish people be more responsible and take care of their pets..

Another day gone
Another day gone, other then working on sage we worked on the Blue Moon container.. Getting it air tight for the music gear!! Our next big project is figuring out a stage. We had been wanting to build one, but feel the price of lumber it’d be cheaper to find an alternative. Few things we’ve been watching for is a Flatbed trailer, plastic, wood pallets..

Solar still not working
Well had electrician come out and look at the solar for us.. The combiner box is bad, the new controller is “back-feeding” power.. Which is confusing everyone, as it’s hooked up right and shouldn’t be back-feeding.. So consensus is this controller is bad too.. The electrician believes that the combiner box killed both controllers, or we got 2 bad controllers..
So now we are once again dealing with the company.. We’re not sure about getting any replacements as we want things that work..

Solar pain in the ….
Sleeping mode, is all that the new solar will do.. After 4 hours on the phone with the tech today, only thing we figured out is possible bad combination box or yet another bad controller or both.. A tech is coming out in the morning to take a look.. There is power coming off the panels, but nothing from the combination box. First it was not getting all the parts sent, next bad controller and now this… We wonder is it ever going to work, did we waste money? Right now anxiety, moods, regret are high…

Learning Curve
Music without a generator!!! We still are not sure about the solar, it’s still showing it’s in sleep mode, but the inverter, controller and our multimeter is showing the batteries are fully charged.
Today we are putting a little heavier load, to test it out. But even with 600 watt amp, and now fridge in the RV we are only using 14% of the batteries… So we’ll see how tonight goes with leaving the fridge on, see how it handles it.. (One step at a time)…
We are thinking we’re not pulling enough off it to put the controller in wake mode.
Fingers crossed this is the issue, cause it is nice to have enough electricity to run most everything!! Yet another #learningcurve … Once we feel secure with the solar we’ll finally get to move all our stuff out of storage and set up the containers music studio, library, living room, kichen…Which will require more #electric
