Lee finished laying front walk at 3:00 & Dave picked up surplus brick & stacked them. By using treated 2×6 boards for sides (15 yrs?) will be easier mowing too. Paid Lee $55.

Dave & I worked on walk.
Lee over about noon & wanted Dave to ride to Dogwood Valley – on route 61 north of Mt. Gilead on bikes to go swimming. So hot I said I would take them over & they could ride back – it was 12 mi.! – Straight shoot to 61 on Williamsport Rd. Didn’t come home until 10:30 – Lee had a flat & they had to find someone to bring them. I refused to worry.
