I blew off the driveway and trimmed the Spirea while Libbie and Joe went to the greenhouse to swap shade cloths between house 4 and house 1. After that Job I replaced three of the deck boards including the one where I ripped it up to run the filter drain pipe under. Painted the drain pipe black and then dressed up the edge with the rest of the rock that I could find as well as the bag of river rock i purchased a few days ago. Still need more large rocks. Took a shower and cleaned up for the day since Joe is having his friends over for a pizza party at 5 PM. I laid on the bed and read some more of Eugenia Price's Lighthouse which I'm really getting to like.
The party went really well - lots of kids running around. Steve, Brandon, Josh and Cole all made it here with their respective wives and in some cases, kids. It was a nice noisy party with lots of Joe's homemade pizza.
