I repainted the letters on the signs that i put up along the road black. I originally had them white, but that didn't read very well.

Took a hike with my mom up to inspect where we had a lot of logging done on our property.
|
My niece Hannah with Seera and Teco.
|
My friend Aaron and his dad Stan arrived on their motorcycles from VA on their way to Lake George, NY. I took them on a little driving tour of the Baumunk Lake Property.
|
Aaron and Stan headed north. I headed south down to Williamsport to shop and see X-Men III.
|
Mmmmm... mud...
|
Dug up the french drains to reposition them for the new porch extension.
|
After putting in new drain pipe i discovered that one side wasn't draining. After some investigation and a lot of digging, i replaced about 12 feet of absolutely crushed drain pipe, covered it all back over, and finally finished the french drain job.
|
I started turning a piece of old cherry that i'd cut from some piled-up old stumps and a little way into it, it came apart and conked me pretty hard on the noggin. Ow.
|
The dogs follow me down the lake when i go out for kayak rides.
|
Up at the top of the hill where the loggers made a big clearing.
|
Pulled the main frame of the treehouse up into place. I had built the temporary scaffolding and hung the chains earlier.
|
Packed up the truck and the dogs and drove to Emily and Brian's house in Honesdale, PA.
|
Drove from Honesdale to Greg and Edna's house in Littleton, MA. I stopped in Devens on the way there to check out the ultimate tournament going on and got a ticket for parking one space out of the lined parking spaces (where other people were parked as well since the lot was full). Grrr...
|
Played with "Fossil Fuel" in the one-day Grand Masters tournament in Devens. We won our first game against ?? 12-10, lost our second to ?? 15-14, then got pummeled by New York in the semi-final 15-3. We were supposed to play ?? again for 3rd, but they'd had enough, so we played a pick-up game.
|
Hung around Edna and Greg's feeling tired and achy.
|
Drove down to Providence and hung around Javaspeed feeling tired and achy.
|
Drove up to Belmont, MA to meet Alisa, a friend of Abby's sister Phoebe. We had some good Boston pizza, ice cream, then sat in a playground for an hour or so talking. I got home at about 1:30 AM.
|
Picked up Thomas at the Providence airport. He was a little surprised.
|
Took Thomas over to Javaspeed for a bit. That afternoon we went to see Pixar's Cars (me for the 1st time, Thomas for the 2nd).
