LED-lights mounted
Bought a pair of led lamps about a month ago, hoping for an easy job mounting them, but no. Turned out that there was a lot of rust on the roof, so that needed to be repaired. Now that is done, and I have mounted the rear lights.
They turn night into day

How to get uptime for a Windows service
Needed to know the uptime of a service on a Windows 2012 server to verify that the suggested solution for restarting all Splunk Universial Forwarders did work, see answers.splunk.com/../how-can-i-restart-all-my-forwarders.
Solution found here /blogs.technet.com/…/how-can-i-get-the-uptime-of-a-service, did make some minor adjustments to the vbscript as shown below.
strComputer = "."
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")
Set colServices = objWMIService.ExecQuery _
("Select * From Win32_Service WHERE displayname = 'SplunkForwarder'")
For Each objService in colServices
intProcessID = objService.ProcessID
Set colProcesses = objWMIService.ExecQuery _
("Select * From Win32_Process Where ProcessID = " & intProcessID)
For Each objProcess in colProcesses
Wscript.Echo objService.Name + "/" + objProcess.Name + " " + objProcess.CreationDate
Next
NextRunning it from the Powershell prompt like this PS D:\Temp> cscript.exe .\uptime.vbs

Cannot stand on the rooftop of my tractor
There are many ways to remove rust from metal, here are four of them using stuff from your kitchen. I will not be using any of them when removing rust from the roof of my tractor. Anyways, with the help from my neighbor the roof was lifted of earlier today. So now I have a Valmet 865s cabriolet…
Digging a ditch behind the barn
Picture taken last Wednesday. The guys who leases our field is doing maintenance, they had to fix a leak in the field drainage. While doing that they made a ditch for us behind the barn as well.
Swans on the field
We have had visitors on our field the past few weeks, several swans have landed there and spent the day.
Milestone in the lifetime of my car

My latest book – Hel ved by Lars Mytting
Lars Myttings non-fiction book Hel ved («Solid wood») is one of the greatest publishing successes in Scandinavia ever. It is a «practical-lyrical» guide on the use and lore of firewood, based on Norwegian traditions and our modern science on stoves and renewable energy.
I did try today to make fire from the top as described in the book and I broke the record of getting the fireplace hot as h$#.
