Awake: 6:32am Temp 62 sleep 6+07 early morning rain overnight @ Nicktown, PA.
After breakfast, K & I motored to the Foote Castle & spent most of the afternoon visiting our local grandsons & Melissa. The boys obviously enjoyed their travels to Montana; Matthew & Andrew told us how they controlled Grampy's model train in the basement & the fun they had
doing that.
I showed Matthew the snap circuit transistor blocks that I drilled (2) holes into each block in order to replace the faulty transistor.
Then Matthew wanted to blow up balloons using the 12-volt battery charger & a miniature vacuum pump; after we got the charger & pump ready to go, Melissa couldn't find the bag of balloons we counted on using.Ok, next plan...
While Nathan napped, K & I spent time on the 3rd floor being gofers for Andrew & Matthew as they build a new train track layout. Melissa joined us for a short time. The pictured layout is not the one they built today....but is a previous masterpiece of what they have been creating on the 3rd floor---with a little help from the engineers. .
It was good seeing & spending some time with the Footes again & listening to the fun times they had in Montana.
.Next, K & I grocery shopped @ the near-by Wal-Mart store before returning to Nicktown.
Around 6:40pm, Scott visited & showed us the 1st completed schematic design phase of our home building plan. "Gosh, is this what we talked about" we both thought silently? Scott was very exact & dedicated to explaining most of the (3) sheets he had drawn up. He spend about (1.5) hrs with us on those plans. Now it's up to us to decide our next move.
Late dinner: hamburger with onions & mushrooms, tomato slices & lettuce.
No movie tonight.
Lights out: 11:58pm
