Yes, that's right, our new stove!! We finally got it installed this morning. The propane line procurer called me back this morning and has to order the proper "in code" line from California. We expect it here in the next few days. Meanwhile, I drove to his store and picked up the old line and brought it back and installed it. Tracy had figured a way to get it in without a tremendous amount of pain. It's not up to "code" but it works! We will install the other line when it arrives in a few days. This baby has electronic ignition and is actually accurate in the oven temperatures. No more having to light it with a match or butane lighter. We've entered a new century in cooking and convenience.
The new batteries should be here tomorrow and the filters I ordered from Bellingham WA should be here too. All are scheduled to be installed Thursday and Friday. With luck, we will be sailing off shore by Saturday. The sailing is the easy part--docking when we get back is another matter. Practice, practice, practice!! As long as the wind is manageable, we shouldn't have any problems.
On Monday, I took a product called Corrosion X and did every screw and bolt I could find on Zephyr. It is supposed to lubricate and take away any kind of corrosion that has built up over the years. So far, that which was a bit hard to screw down or in now works very easily. We will see how long it lasts. Supposedly better than WD-40. Leaves less residue. We will see.
Right now, it's off to laundry. Tracy has promised me chicken curry for dinner tonight!! Ah--the joys of a new stove are great!
