Jan 28th - House Washing

It was another sunny day in CA with a high of 63.

I spent about 2 hours in the morning, and another hour in the afternoon, washing part of the front of the house, including the porch ceiling. Drew worked in the house doing odds and ends.

Kathy is still fighting a cold. She and Drew went to a restaurant supply store to pick up a few things he wanted. On the way back they stopped at a hot dog vendor and bought hot dogs for lunch. Mine sure tasted good.

Kathy is cooking a roast in the electric skillet, with potatoes and carrots, for supper. I can hardly wait. It is one of my favorite meals.

Nothing to exciting today, no Federal Marshalls doing surveillance on Drew's deck like we had a few days ago. He was watching the back of a house on the next street while other Marshall's broke down the doors on a house in the next block. I was oiling woodwork while he was out there and it was kind of funny when he came to the door and told me not to get concerned if I heard loud noises because it would be them breaking down the door. Then he said that if we heard gunshots we should hit the floor. (I think he was kidding.)

In case you are wondering. The guy was a nice young man and he asked if he could stand on the deck to look at the back of the other house.

Actually there may have been some excitement in downtown Oakland. I think the Occupy people are running amok again. During lunch we noticed two helicopters (news choppers?) hovering over the downtown area. We haven't watched the news so we don't know what actually was happening.

Good night to all and may God bless you and yours.
