Check that your car still starts.
At our auto electrical company we see a lot of "battery drain" issues especially with modern cars and Japanese imports that may have added electronics like GPS tracking etc, that slowly drain the battery. With normal daily driving the alternator has time to charge the battery each day so it doesn't cause issues but with our cars sitting in the garage for several days now is a good time to go out and see if it starts ok, before you need it in a hurry. After starting it let it idle for 5 minutes to recover what you have drained out of it from the start. If it starts slower than normal leave it idling for 15-20 minutes to charge the battery a bit more.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
