battery update, Air Step, Primus

[Julia Bonser]

The rear boiler will operate as long as it is called on. The setting
on the CW is the same setting as in the past which is a comfortable
temperature for us. We suspect it is air trapped in the system as the
reservoirs were quite low when we added antifreeze.

I wish we could have stayed where it was warmer. Unfortunately due to
having a HMO we had to return to frigid Wisconsin for Dick to get
medical care. He had his blood work today and sees the Dr. on Friday
to figure out what next.

I may have to learn mechanical skills at my advanced age to keep this
bird going. Perhaps it will prevent "Old Timers Disease" by keeping
my brain learning new things.
