M4A3(75) Sherman SN 11605 at its new location, AMVETS Post #89, a little less than a mile from where it used to be. It's also gained a fresh coat of paint, and some replacements for parts that were missing.
This is the Weston model 370 electrodynomometer AC/DC ammeter which was in production for approx. 60 years and used actively for about 100. Talk about lasting and enduring designs! The 370 "mainframe" was used for several different product designs that included voltmeters and watt-meters in various power ranges.
This particular unit was once used by the Wisconsin Power Co. And could be found on their service trucks and in their facilities. It came with a calibration record from that company and was still pretty much bang on spec when it left their care. Unfortunately, this unit was badly damaged on its way to me, (dropped or impacted(?)), which busted open the wooden cabinet, which I was able to repair and also fix up a few other parts which got bent. I even gave a quick surface refresh to reduce the more ugly scratches and scrapes on the wood and then applied some lemon oil. The massive 3/4" Bakelite plith that the hardware is mounted too remained unscathed. The meter movement itself was also damaged and giving off low readings. The springs in this movement which were sturdy and designed for calm travel and handling, was not designed to handle blunt force trauma. So I worked out a deal with the vendor and decided to keep it and use it mostly as just a man-cave style accessory
Oh well. Such is life.. :)
I slept through my shower time at home. at brisbane airport I found a shower stall. I cleaned up, drip dried and re-dressed. Ready for the trip to LA.

I don't have the urge to post to Flickr any more which is making me feel a bit useless.

Paisley arrived home this morning after having some cosmetic surgery!! I am thrilled with her, and we have been having a blast all day long together! This reminds me that when a girl does arrive home from Spa...it is so fun to get to know them all over again!! :)

More contest fun at SYWBPP! The idea was to take a self-portrait of what you do while waiting for the announcement of winners for the awesome contests they host.
I'm a morning person, and being that most of the announcements happen laaaatte at night, many PDT, I'm usually half asleep! But I alternate that with being on pins and needles....refresh....refresh....refresh.
Beaches close at dark. As the sun was setting this guy closed up his little cooler full of beverages poured the ice water over his head to cool down.
Have a restful weekend and may you be refreshed for the coming week!
Still looking for some New York City ideas for our trip if anyone has any.
