Day 281

I got up with the alarm today, but started playing Minions.  That, along with pets and breakfast meant that I didn't start hauling gravel until a little after 8:30.  I moved 25 cart loads and was done about 10:15.  I was really tired when I quit.  Things go a little quicker because I don't have to haul it very far any more.  I've got about 10 more cart loads and I'll have spread gravel all the way to the fill I put in years ago on the curve.  At that point I'll just start filling in bare spots.

After a shower the rest of the morning was surfing.  Ellen was watching some really stupid movie.  The main character was some broad revolutionary.  She kept getting caught and her brother kept breaking her out.  That was the whole movie, interspersed with liberal bullshit about the big bad establishment.  When it was over we left to go to the post office and let Lucy run.

When I got to the post office there was a package.  The area was still open, but it was just after closing time so they wouldn't get it for me.  Oh well.  It was about 100 degrees and sunny.  Lucy still did 12 long retrieves, which I thought was great.

After that we stopped for snow cones.  There was a breeze blowing (it's Texas), so sitting under the trees was nice.  After that I didn't want to go home, so we went over to the northwest place so I could get a beer and we could ave an appetizer.  Unfortunately their appetizers suck.  It was only 3:00, so we ended up ordering dinners, eating a little, and taking the rest home for later.

Th rest of the day was hiding out from the heat.  I did a little surfing.  Ellen watched movies.
