Hay Crew,

Now the fun part, trying to lag in brick and it is getting colder out.
Rick and Willy got me to redo the floor and bring it up to a new level
after some slumping of the gravel. Once we get some good sized bolders
down below the pignose it should hold back the gravel and allow for
settling. I hope it works. My planets must have been lined up pretty good
because I lagged the first brick on the night of the Equanox which is
supposed to be auspicious for some reason. I call that brick "Bonnie
Staffle's Brick" cause of some help she gave me a while ago. I won't
forget the help and encouragement from the rest of you and who knows your
brick may be named too. It's started in

There are also a couple of short subjects I put on YouTube. "Sompin Ta
Think About" is mostly thinkin out loud after Olof took me for a walk.

I'm havin too much fun trying to scare the hell out of some kids too and
it's not working. Wuhu, what da heck, eh, at least they still have a
laugh. Doesn't need to get any better than this but it probably will,
stay in there!
