It's been a long, hot, boring summer--except for the nearly daily visits to the local Coffee House. The biggest excitement was the demolition of the building that took up 1/3 of the remaining block of 'downtown', and the removal of a bank vault that had been there since 1896.
Keith finally got sent out to work--during the 2 hottest weeks of the whole summer, naturally. He's 'batching' it in the truck camper, while I hold down the fort. His job is about 70 miles away from here...camping rent is $300 a month. We can do the math! And, with working 10 hour days, the old man is better off living closer to the job! He has a 1/2 hour drive--which is plenty. If he's still on the same job in Nov., we'll move the 5th wheel and set up for the winter, I think.
