After working all day Friday and yesterday, the gas tank installer had to come back today to finally get the stump out and complete the installation. Last night, Barbara put together the four rocking chairs for the front porch while I programmed the water softener. This afternoon, Uncle Earl and Aunt Madeline (from Baltimore) came over and sat on the porch for a good while. Barbara's cousin Judy Lewis also came over and brought us a beautiful lamp she had filled with shells she and her parent's collected in the Philippines and other areas of the Pacific. She also gave us a set of glasses that Barbara immediately displayed in the glass cabinet to the left of the refrigerator. The upstairs floors will probably have to be re-done as they are way too shiny.
