All about the travels of Don Wood and Lou Manners.

Archive for August, 2008

Friday: (08/29) Or at least that’s the intent. My first effort today was an early doctors appointment. With that done, it was time to think about work.
When we were over in Reno, the high temperatures there were in the mid 90’s. As it turns out, that was cooler than at home. We had a hot […]

25.08.08 | A Visit To Reno

Monday: (08/25) Another breaking day. I finished breaking out the concrete on the patio for one of the drain pipes about 20 feet long by 8 inches wide. It actually went much more quickly today, I’m not really sure why? I also finished sawing some of the concrete by where the bricks were. I’ll be […]

19.08.08 | Pesky Pebble

Tuesday: (08/19) I had a doctors appointment in Santa Clara this morning. It’s been two weeks since the last check on the pesky pebble’s (my kidney stone’s) travels. It hasn’t moved in these past two weeks. It gets four more weeks to move out or the surgeons will evict it. That doesn’t sound like fun […]

18.08.08 | Shopping Again

Monday: (08/18) Back to the weekly schedule, though I’m not sure how it really differs from the weekend schedule?
Dawn was off to school early. ParaTransit was late and she ended up getting to class late.
Lou and I did a shopping run, both hardware and food. First stop was the Post Office to get some 2 […]

Friday: (08/15) An interesting day. I picked up Dawn and took her to a class. Dawn is taking a class on how to get a job. I think that should actually be part of the curriculum in school, like balancing your check book should be, BUT ISN’T.
I needed to fix her Internet access at her […]

11.08.08 | Wrapping It Up

Monday: (08/11) That’s what the house siding installers are doing.

While watching the work in back by the fountain a humming bird paid a visit, and this time, I had my camera. The shot on the right was spoiled by the triceratops that lives there.
Today, they completed the North side of the house, most of […]

Monday: (08/04) Lou and Dawn went down to San Jose for appointments and classes. They’ll be back Wednesday.
I was busy cleaning up my study to provide access to the windows for replacement. The room was piled floor to ceiling with stuff but the closet was empty. I went to Home Depot and got a shelf […]

Saturday: (08/02) Dawn has several garden pots on a fence in the back yard growing herbs and such. She has cages over some of them to keep the squirrels out. This morning, Lou found this bird in one of the cages. It was happy to be released!

Sunday: (08/03) We visited Rancho San Antonio Park. […]
