Finished laying and parging the sixth course. Called Tammy Walsh to arrange for her to come over next week to help me find some more good building rock – with her backhoe! Temp today climbed to 78° so went for a swim while the camp fire was turning into coals for chicken BBQ. Water temp now a brisk 67°. Entering the lake, you-know-who wasn’t very happy, but there was no danger of falling asleep while “relaxing” after a hard day’s work.
