Awake: 5:37am Temp 30 sleep 6+25 sunny overnight @ Nicktown.
Mid morning, Gary C. called: he had (2) questions? 1st about our Geo-thermo system: "will you have the trenches or will you be using the wells?" he asked. His question was well timed as I had just recently talked with Scott about this same subject.
This company, has always used the well method, not for the water, but for the temperature (160) ft down & taking up less space. My cousin Florentz was the only client that they made an exception for. Florentz has been very content & comfortable since the unit was installed about (4 yrs ago) & he used the trench method. He does admit to one big error however, he wished he had done it (20) yrs ago! So, I might be using the well system after all.
The other question Gary had: "what day would be comfortable for us to have a tour of your house?" he asked. I couldn't answer that question right away so I left it as: we'll be in touch during the week. Meanwhile John B paid us another visit; this time he wanted Kathy to review the needed preparation for a colonoscopy which he will have Thursday morning.
Today the builders finished the fireplace chase.
& the REA guys came to peruse the attic in prep for running the air conditioning ductwork.
Later, my aviation ace of model airplanes, Ray, called & we talked for 55 min. Lots of subjects; to mention a few: 1st, their son Nathan, has recently been given a retainer fee with the Hood River, WA town to take pictures & make movies to attract more vacationers.
Then a discussion followed about Ray's model airplanes & how much fun it is to fly the BIGGER glider using the high-tech brushless motor. "They have more power & longevity," Ray told me. He flies his glider to a high altitude, catches the breeze & updrafts, then shuts the motor off & glides all over the place, making sure he doesn't go out of sight or range.
We also covered our house building progress...but Ray keeps his eagle eyes on my blog & pretty well knows what's happening.
Dinner: Alaskan salmon, rice with golden raisins, spaghetti squash, & spinach salad with citrus vinaigrette.
Lights out: 11:15pm.
