Must have misunderstood the NOAA weather people when they said there was a 70% chance of rain today, ‘cause it was a beautiful day for working. Put in the other two in-ground / railing posts that define the west side of the second landing, then installed the landing light and the framework for the deck boards. Late afternoon, Tammy Walsh and Bob LaPorte (who are working together to repair a portion of Marty & Merry’s driveway) came up to admire the walkway and sample my beer supply. Got the new laptop semi-setup and spent most of the evening catching up with the blog and swearing profusely at the #$@!%#@!!! mouse touch-pad that seems to want to do everything but move the mouse pointer to where I want it in the document.
