Sunday, August 16

Busy, busy day. Well over two hundred visitors today. They started at 0900 and continued until 1800. Many sailors passing by and a lot of day trippers as well. This was the hottest day yet and there was no breeze this morning. The water temperature is approaching seventy and many were swimming. We can see people on the beach at Popham State Park, they look like ants and the beach was crawling.

Brenda gave up on scraping and sanding the bathroom ceiling. It seemed that every time she scraped, more was flaking off. There was no end to it. So she came up with the idea of just putting a new ceiling up. That’s where I came in. I was coerced in to hanging a new drywall ceiling. That’s what I did most of the day. Brenda took care of the majority of the visitors and did a splendid job.

As the sun went down so did the temperature. It is now in the mid seventies with humidity seventy percent. It is comfortable and will be a good sleeping night.

Oh yeah, I was just outside and the stars are magnificent. The lights on shore are shining and I just saw two shooting stars within five minutes. Fantastic!
