Awake: 6:10am Temp 69 Intermittent light rain Overnight @ Nicktown, PA
Walk to the community center @ 7:45am & exercise for 50 min. Then join the
refined coffee club members for 1.5 hr.
Kathy leaves to help make candy @ the Nicktown Hall for the Homecoming
Festival. I return to the bus to make some phone calls: to my brother &
sister-in-law regarding the cousin’s reunion on Friday & the Homecoming
Festival on Sunday. Then a call to Steve, who might be doing our plumbing
& electric hookup for our new well….in fact; I talked with Steve twice &
accepted his estimate over Larry’s. His itemizing seemed to be more
accurate & professional.
Kathy returns from making candy @ 1:50pm, nearly 4 hrs later. She looks
tired; there were only 8 workers so it’s good that she was able to help
out.
Hurricane Katrina has given us steady rain all day so far with some wind.
We decide to drive to Johnstown (35 min) & buy a Rubber Maid storage
container to use as a pump house. 1st we make a stop @ Conzatti’s Italian
store on Scalp Ave, then Home Depot. It took some time to decide what
model of Rubber Maid to select but then finally, we both agreed on the
larger size. A young man Josh helped lift the storage bldg package onto
the roof rack of the Suzuki & I tied it down firmly. We drove 45 mph while
returning to Nicktown as it was pretty windy. We were back in the bus @
6:30pm & we left the Storage Bldg on the roof of our Suzuki overnight.
8:00pm dinner: Alaska salmon burgers, brown rice, some of Florentz’s
tomatoes & blue cheese salad + toast.
My brother Don calls & we talk about the cousin’s reunion & the Homecoming
Festival.
I call James: I want to make sure he will be digging the ditch on Friday
before Eric & Steve show up to do their plumbing & electrical work on the
well. He says he’ll be here on Friday @ 7:30am.
