So.... I just moved 3 carboys using "neck handles". Worked great, but only moved them maybe 100 yards on the move out, and 50 yards on the move in. I was worried, but all went well

I've used OxiClean to get labels to peel off. Usually works pretty good. I have learned to fill the bottles with just plain hot water so oxiclean doesn't get inside the bottles (it leaves a residue that can be tough to get out). So basically I fill the bottles with hot water and then put...

Dawg.... hope all is well. I haven't been on here recently (not because I've perfected wine making). You've helped me tremendously in this venture.

My current car, 2017 Nissan Murano, will be out of compliance with company guidelines at the end of 2021, so I have to get a new car by the of of the year. I'm going to stick with an SUV/Crossover style. Ive really enjoyed the Murano. It's comfortable and reliable. During non-Covid times I...

I get my 2nd pfe shot this coming Wednesday. Nothing notable on the 1st shot, just a sore shoulder for a day, but nothing that really hampered my daily life at all.
