Awake: 5:05am     Temp 56     sleep 5+45    rain...constant all night according to Kathy    overnight @ Nicktown.

Around 11:15am, the rain subsided but with heavy clouds & short bursts throughout the day.

We did support our new priest, Fr. Chad, & attended 8:00 am Mass. We think he will be a good pastor, already different than Fr. Job, but very likeable & personable. He likes to sing & does; pretty nice voice, too. So far, he's not quite the fantastic homilist that Fr. Job is, but we'll see.

Meanwhile, our (2) workers started to hang our Hunter fans in the visitors bedrooms. After they had the two fans put in place, Bob checked the dimmer switches to make sure our dimmers would work on these old fans. He told us to keep the fan setting on medium & then the fan will be able to change speed using the dinner switch. I was a little skeptical, so I tried it & here the dimming switches made no difference what-so-ever. Oops! Our fans are old fashioned & though the speed can only be changed by pulling on the dangling cord, the fan can be turned on/off using the wall switch.

We've been wondering about our deck plans; so Bob told us that Bernie will be measuring our deck & letting us know next week what we can expect for cost & labor on a specific deck or maybe several types. Bob also recommended that we talk to Paul at the Long Barn in Ebensburg regarding composite decking, vinyl decking, etc. So we motored to Ebensburg & spent a good hr with Paul, discussing deck choices.

After we finished there, we checked the West End Market for veggies, apples, etc.

Back in our motorhome, Kathy got on her computer & started looking at numerous comments that people have made after they have chosen a deck type. Most, I mean most of these comments were not good; it was either a fading problem or a moldy problem or shrinking/expanding problem.  What should we do?

Dinner: leftover chicken & noodles. Our entertainment for the evening: watching the Republican Candidates debate for (2) + hrs.

Lights out:  11:36pm.
