Day 237

It rained pretty good last night - 1.3 inches.  There wasn't much thunder and lighting, just rain.

I got up this morning and started a Minions party.  It was a 2 hr one, which means I spent the next 2 hours in bed working the game.  I completed the requirements for a "heat gun".  It didn't give me the coins I though it would.   I also got most of the items I used replenished.

A little after that Dola came over.  She talked to Ellen a lot about different ailments she has treated.  I'm not sure what's going on here.  I boght some more gun parts while they talked.  A little before noon I left with the dog for Circle C.  I asked Dola to make sure Ellen walked before she left. 

When I got to the park the paths were closed and so was the road to the soccer fields.  Slaughter creek was amazingly high.  The 4 big culverts under the bridge were completely full.  I walked the dog over to Escarpment.  That's as far as we could go because of the water.  She showed no interest in the bumper on the way over.  On the way back she decided to do about 10 retrieves.  It was cloudy and 70, so heat wasn't a factor.

I then went to the post office and came home.  Dola was gone, and Ellen had walked.  I surfed and played Minions for the rest of the afternoon.

We watched TV in the evening.  The "heat gun" was finished about 10:15.  I was really disappointed to find that there was no longer a reward (gold and Minions coins) when it finished.  It also sucks that coins are only worth 2 now, and come very infrequently.  This is going to make it much harder to promote Minions.  I did get one of the next build items done and the second set up.  It will be done tomorrow morning.
