Much as Steve would have liked to stay… and as much as I would have loved to have him stay, the top thing on the agenda for today was to continue with the wooden walkway construction, which is definitely a one-person job at this point (and I wouldn’t wish digging holes in what passes for Leicester “soil” on anyone). Consequently, Steve departed for home right after breakfast and I spent the day building another 16 feet of walkway. Pretty brutal when working in the direct sun this afternoon… temps were in the upper 80’s… but that just made the 5 o’clock swim all the more refreshing. Lake temperature is up to 71°.
