Awake: 5:55am      Temp 59     sleep 6+29       early morning...heavy rain      later sunny overnight @ Nicktown. 1st thing this morning, Bernie got right after clearing a trough on the basement floor for the Radon tube that Kathy mentioned yesterday.

You can see the long white tubing curving its way across the basement floor.

Sometime during the afternoon, I asked Bernie how long he would be having the roller. "Just today" he said; "they will pick it up in the morning." He also told me that when he is finished, I could use it if I wanted to.

About 4:15pm, Bernie brought the roller up to our front yard, gave me a quick check-out & then he & his workers drove off for the day. The inside yard of our circular drive is very, very bumpy....so I thought perhaps this heavy roller might help level the ground; I spent over an hr rolling just about every foot of our circular yard.

I will admit, the shocks aren't as good as the ones in your car.

Dinner: Egg plant parmesan, sourdough bread & a spinach salad.

Late movie: "Holiday in Mexico." We watched 1/3.

Lights out: 12:08am.
