Kahlo, Loge, trees, drains and First Friday
Friday, October 3, 2008, 06:00 PM
Worked on the fish pond version of Loge defining the timers, etc. Looked some more at the runaway problem on Kahlo. It could be it takes a while for it to get to the magnetron off routine. I don't know why it takes seconds but I'll hook up the scope and see what's going on. The bathroom drain was leaking due to a cracked washer. We went to Lowes and got a drain repair kit for $7. This is an expensive washer. We also bought some new faucets for the sink on the back porch. This new one is higher and will allow a pail under the spigot. I'm also going to put a hose bib mounted on the sink basin. Took the dead tree down next to the house. Dropped some of it on Longo's property but I'm cutting it all up and putting it on the pile in the back. The new washer fixed the leak under the sink. I'll keep the extra parts in case something else breaks but I don't think so. Tonight is First Friday. I have dinner reservations at Cafe Luna downtown tonight.
We had a wonderful time at first Friday. Found street parking in front of Exploris then walked to Visual Arts where there was a "perspective" art show. Had some wine then went over to ArtSpace and had more wine while browsing various galleries. Talked to Judy Crane about her painting in the Marriott. She's a nice lady, we chatted a little about her art and the nice work she does. Next went to the quilting lady. I wish I brought my camera. Many nice night scenes with lights to photograph as well as some indoor shots. There was a pretty good street band playing some Bruce Springsteen and Rolling Stones music. I also enjoyed some of the scenery - nice looking woman in pretty clothes. Had dinner at Cafe Luna - I ordered the veal cannelloni which was a nightly special. Libbie had the Totelli cruscettia which is a seafood dish in a rich cream saucee. After dinner we went back to listen to the band some more and went home at 10 PM.
