Don't think so. Typically most houses have 3 wires coming in - 2 hot, and one neutral. Measure between either hot to the neutral you get 110 - measure across the two hots you measure 220.
I wonder whether at one time part of the house was rented out separately, and it was set up with a separate breaker box and meter.

We got someone else's FedEx package the other day. Right house number but wrong street. Luckily I was home and able to run out and catch the driver so he could take it back.

I suppose you are not familiar with the joking response to "I'm from Jersey" ,which is one variation or another of "Really? What exit?"
Exit 4 of the NJ Turnpike. Have never ridden on the Jersey Turnpike because it's illegal (and stupid) to do so, but I have ridden legally on I-80, I-84. I-90 and I-94 in various places in WY, MT, ND, SD and OR.

I've been on I-5, I-205, I-80, I-17, and I-25.

I am willing, but there are precious few BFers nearby. I think Pepe and @indyfabz are the only ones I can think of.

Couple Rans Bents in Austin available
https://austin.craigslist.org/bik/d/...599170222.html
I know nothing about them, where my bent riders at?
Sandals, American flag attached to the back.. what else am I missing for the transition? or to 'complete the look'

I meant seeds.
What about I-40?
That's much more than a couple hours for VV.
My fantasy is not about driving with the interstate traffic but rather on the wide roads with gentle climbs and no traffic lights.

To complete the look you also will need a beard and preferably an aero (beer) belly. And possibly a bag hung on the back of the seat or a rear rack.

Some cycling crap pick-ups today.
The wide Bonts finally arrived at the shop and, somehow, they're tighter than the regulars width Bonts that I'd tried on two weeks ago. As new shoes aren't completely necessary right now, and with (failed) shoe shopping fatigue setting in, I decided to use my deposit on one of those Silca rolls with the Boa fastener. Then I picked up some new glasses with two sets of lenses - one for day, one for night. Now I just need more time to ride.

Pro tip: if you go into the lunchroom and see a can of diet coke that looks like it may have been frozen and the top is bulging, do NOT open it.
How do I know? Suffice it to say there was a diet coke explosion in my lunchroom at work and I got it all over myself and the kitchen wall/ceiling/counter.
An effing mess.

Recently tried to get some nice dress shoes in 11.5 E.. needed them in EE, chances of the mfg making an EE are snowballs in hell. I'm stuck with UGG made wide Chukkas. Which aren't bad.. but they just don't last.. I'd rather pay the $ up front and have something for years.
