Awake: 6:02am Temp 60 sleep 6+15 sunny overnight @ Nicktown.
We ate a small breakfast, skipped the KK, got in the Toyota & began driving out our driveway ...when a rather large truck pulling a large trailer & carrying a large Bulldozer...came our way on St. Paul Street. It's a one lane street & he's bigger than we are so I pulled into Chuck's driveway & let him pass. "That Bulldozer is here for us" I said to Kathy. We turned around & met the operators Dave & Steve. They are going to remove the topsoil where our house will be sitting. We couldn't talk long as we had an 11:00am rendezvous with Albert in Indiana, PA, the brick man.
But before meeting Albert, we had (4) large bags of boys clothes to drop off @ the Foote Castle...from Carlene & Bob. We spent about (20) min visiting with the Foote boys & then drove further into town to meet Albert.
Albert told us to: "follow me" as we toured some nice homes in Heritage Oaks neighborhood.
Then the Sterling Hills Estates neighborhood; driving slowly; sometimes getting out of our vehicles to look closer @ a brick pattern/color.
It was in the Whites Woods neighborhood that we found a home with brick that was new to us: not baked but concrete & had a gray & white look with a tinge of blue.
Not only did we get up close & personal, but we talked with the owners for a good (30) min about their brick & where it was made. Now Albert has the job of finding out if this brick is available.
We returned to his brick studio where he took our address & showed us a similar brick ............. He'll let us know.
Dinner: BLT's, cantaloupe, & a peach.
Lights out: 11:34pm.
