Winter Is Coming

Barbara Smith and her granddaughter came by to winterize the swamp cooler today.

The duct was so rusted, we had a tough time finding the slot for the damper. Then it took some WD-40, a screwdriver, and a hammer for Barbara to get the sheet of metal in place. Next, a panel had to be removed to reach the drain plug. Finally, Barbara had to get on the roof to throw the canvas cooler cover in place.

All in all, quite the ordeal.
