This is the day after the big rain. I pounded some stakes in the ground around the peppers and eggplants and tied them up. We have small tomatoes, small squash and small cucumbers on the plants. They all look great. Since the ground was saturated I used the opportunity to pull weeds from the landscape beds. The spa pump arrived at noon. Libbie had emptied the tub so i started removing the old pump. We had to take a run to Rising sun Pools on Hillsborough Street to get two O-rings for the pump. I also noticed the new pump is 1.5 hp while the old one is only 1 hp. It shouldn't make a difference if the RPM is the same. We had to give it up to get ready for dance. We left at 6:40 for 7 o'clock rock and found parking on Academy Street. It was quite nice. Cary provided lawn chairs downtown. Robert started with a group lesson doing the hustle for 15 minutes and then doing Rhumba for 15 minutes. Quite a few people joined in a circle in the middle of the street led by Robert. Scattered throughout the circle were ringers from the Carolina Ballroom. We followed along and noticed several members of the public were watching and trying to do what we were doing. Libbie and I danced Hustle, Swing and Rhumba to a pretty good 50's and 60's band.
We went to the Cary Pub afterwards for dinner. We split a Chicken salad sandwich and had a small plate of wings as a side along with 1.5 Yuenglings. It was a fun evening.
