100% that's the four-wheel drive so he's going to get another one and bring it up what he's doing is he's charging the air condition so I guess he's going to go get one of the 444s which are the two that we use for hay so we we really need to make sure that those are working in working condition air conditions in working condition it's warm today y'all I'm not lying in the meantime I'm going to switch out my ferns it's time to water my ferns do you remember me showing you this I'm sure some of you do it this way just works so good put some water in a 5 gallon bucket Let Them soak and um water them once a week like this and it'll keep them I just push it down in there push it down down down so the water soaks it really good and um I don't know I let it sit 30 minutes an hour Whatever Whenever I remember to get it out and then you're good to go for the whole week that's very high there the drop C drop cord okay I see the drop cord and hand in the vacuum CER okay can you reach that first needs a vacuum [Music] himself okay we get food from ins side that way first okay all right we are going to help here I was saying that filter says 51904 so it's 20 years old it's a filter I

to be free on now it's something else okay and this process takes a while if I remember correctly right you have to wait for it to do something put it in slow put it in L okay you said this is called purging your line yeah purging the line could had that in look like a helium tank okay that's loud and that's a whole process and I think it might take a while I got to go check I think I got to take
