After the morning bike
ride with Marty, did errands to / from / in Burlington all day. Delivered the radon tester to the Vermont
Department of Environmental Conservation.
Lunch with Alverta at Splash, a restaurant on the Burlington waterfront
whose ambiance was quite pleasant and whose sweet potato fries were addictive.
Met with Dennis Senesac at his office in Vergennes to talk about various
plumbing issues… and pay my bill. Dennis
also performed an on-the-spot analysis of our well water, confirming what
Spafford’s told me: 12 grains of hardness (or 205 ppm, if you prefer) which
definitely will need to be softened, no iron, and a pH of 7.3. For some reason I’m not hungry for dinner
tonight…
