A quite day today with more visiting than working.  There is something about a small town friendliness that is heartwarming.
Today Mark the guy who operated the rock slinger stopped by to see if the rain caused too much damage.  It took us a minute to figure out who he was since he was on his Harley and you know the outfit the helmet,  phone headset and big glasses
Talked to the lady behind us as we sat and watched the Poker Run boats pick up their cards.  She was sad since one of her Burmese Mountain dog died this week.
Talked to the woman next door as well and finally met her husband.

We did get some mud removed from the pit and Brian and Graham have most of the centre lines done.
There are just a few places we just can't wash the mud away so we will wait for it to dry a little.
Evan taught us an interesting thing and that is spraying clear lacquer on your string line and it won't wash away.  Very true because it worked.

I love Evan's painting which he did before we found out from the daughter of the woman who owned it before it was renovated that this house used to be yellow but with black trim.  Pretty neat for a before picture.

It won't be quite this bright of a yellow but some sort of yellow.

The poker Run boats lining up.

A new use for a fishing net.  Not many of the boats were decorated like this.
