If it makes you feel any better, I think the moving van only got about 8 MPG.

Just keeping up with you! Except when I had to go through that checkpoint in Florida. I imagine the van would have done better on 55 MPH roads than the 70-75 MPH we were running.

Bought the Echo CS-590 chainsaw yesterday, didn't get a chance to use it because I needed to swap DD1's snow tires for the summers. Ran the saw today, seems to work well on the big stuff. Ran into a problem with the small stuff (2"), it likes to spin the piece and get the teeth hung up. I figured out that unlike the small Stihl saw, cutting the small stuff close to the engine isn't the right place, have to cut it way out on the end. The teeth on the Echo are about 3x the size of those on the Stihl, I guess that isn't a surprise since the Stihl is classed for limit use for things like pruning.

Yep, posted that on Tuesday. No need to crank it again until I go out and cut down some more trees, a bit wet out there at the moment.
I'm trying to decide if I should make an enclosure in the pond to keep the fish where I can see them for a bit or just let the loose and hope they make it. If I don't see them again, I either ASSUME they are in there somewhere or ASSUME they died. In any case I have to wait until the water temp in the pond is close to that of the house which generally is between 65° and 68°.
