Awake: 6:14 Temp 64 sleep 6+02 sunny overnight @ Nicktown.
After breakfast, I picked a few more blueberries & then continued raking more dead grass into piles inside our circular drive.
Next, we motored to the Foote Castle, arriving @ 12:50pm. The Footes were all at the dining room table having dinner & Gregory was with Melissa in a sling. I haven't seen Gregory yet & hope to get a nice picture of him during our visit. Melissa assures me that Greg will be getting hungry soon.
Meanwhile, I spent some time with Matthew while he worked with his snap circuit kit. I want him to be more careful when building a circuit without referring to his manual; I talked with him a little about this as I couldn't help seeing quite a few burnt out solid state units defunct. Those diodes, transistors, resisters, integrated circuits built into a music box, alarm units, etc, can get rather costly over a period of time.
After Kevin changed Gregory's diaper, I was able to get a fairly good photo of him. He's a good looking fella & seems to be quite content in his new world so far.
In the back yard, we watched the boys fill the small swimming pool with water & when no one was watching, Nathan came with a bucket of sand, & the water turned brown.
Look closely to see Andrew's gray boat that he made with the help of the Lowe's guy.
We left earlier than usual due to grocery shopping @ Martin's & Wal-Mart...arriving in Nicktown around 5:30. We had just enough time to clean up & get to the 6:00pm vigil Mass.
Dinner: Cranberry turkey stir fry with whole grain bread.
Late movie: "Saturday Night and Sunday Morning" with Albert Finney, Shirley Anne Field, Rachel Roberts, Norman Rossington. Grim yet refreshing look at angry young man, who in a burst of nonconformity alters the lives of girlfriends Field & Roberts. One of the first and best of Britain's "angry young men" dramas of the '60s.1960. Kathy didn't care much for this movie & I admit, it was different.
Lights out: 1:07am.
