88° – Felt more pep than for a couple of weeks.
Gazebo delivered! – Mary came out about 10:00 while I was setting out a flat of apple blossom impatiens in patio bed – but no delivery when she left at 12:00. I paid bills & watched for it until 3:40 when I called & reported no delivery – walked out & there he was – a nice young man who looked about 16! But he managed it! Using winches, jacks & rollers! Donnie came over in time to help put screens on, place cupola on top – $3,162 & our first house only cost $2,000!
Called Bill Schertzer & he will contact Tim Fryman at Tri-Rivers about laying bricks. Jane called about making decision on computer – Eblin beat other 2 – by about $2,000 on 3 units. Donnie finished sealing the driveway & watered pawpaw trees across road – they have leafed out nicely. I intended to go to River Board but too exhausted.
TV good – channel 34 – Ireland – last episode (7) of Murphy Brown – & 50 yrs of Ed Sullivan – so many memories of those programs – Beatles – Elvis Presley – Supremes – first programs in color in 1965.
David called – needs a certified birth certificate for his passport application.
