During breakfast, finally solved a very difficult Sudoku puzzle (without guessing) that has had me completely flummoxed for a couple of weeks.  Riding the wings of that achievement, went to see Tim Combs at Goodro’s to alert him to the problems I’m encountering with the drive sockets in the heads of the Clubhouse decking screws; they have been stripping before the screws get fully seated.  Once the head strips, you can’t get the screw in any further… and you can’t get it out!  So far, in spite of my absolute best efforts, five screws (out of about 400 driven) have stripped.  Got most of the rest of the Sauna deck framing built during a great day for working.  Sweatshirt temperatures, a steady wind, which meant NO mosquitoes.  The level part of the deck intercepted the wooden walkway exactly where I had envisioned it doing so, back when I was using the leveling sight to establish the elevation for the Sauna footers.  Not too shabby with the surveying, he says, patting himself on the back.
