Monday, June 29

Another foggy day. This place really lives up to its’ reputation.

On and off rain and the wind kept outside activities to a minimum. Brenda hand lettered and painted a replacement sign for the lighthouse and I took trash down to the boat house to get rid of later on. Later I installed a new plug in the museum store so Brenda can now plug in the mini refrigerator and we can start selling bottled water and soda.

That is, if anybody ever shows up.

Two weeks ago we asked FOSI if we could purchase material for curtains. Brenda was going to borrow a sewing machine and make them. FOSI replied no. Money is tight and curtains were not high on the priority list. So, undaunted, Brenda found some curtains at the Goodwill store. She bought them, fixed them, ironed them and hung them. Now we have curtains in the living room. Total cost, nine bucks! Good job!

We have not had any visitors for over a week. Weather has not cooperated. This weekend is the fourth of July and the weather is supposed to improve. That should bring visitors and, hopefully, we can see fireworks from all over.

We had lasagna for dinner and will watch some TV.
