Busy and peaceful day at home. Get lots of winterizing chores done… Also got some prep done for a busy week ahead. And included a stop at generator and visits with a couple of collaborators.
What are the most fun things today was the longest run with Diane to see some of the damage from last weeks flooding. Dugway Road is completely closed because of a washout near Huntington Gorge.
We noticed how high up the brush showed water flow. The water must’ve been 20 feet higher than usual in the gorge !
Every time we go to the gorge we remember what a dangerous and scary place it can be. More than 30 people died here since we’ve lived in the area
This place can be so beautiful and yet so unpredictable
Had quite an adventure today as Dian, our friend Hunter and I prepped The basement for an insulation project we’re doing. We spent about three hours crawling every corner of the dirt basement under this house. Some of that time choosing whether you’re on your back or your belly because it was too tight to turn over. We carded away 10 bags of old insulation and other random junk that had been under there for who knows how long…
There are still jealous of more than 100-year-old circus posters for use between the floor and the floor joists… Only a few fragments remain but it’s cool to see
I found a perfect place for a Sam stone in a modest compartment in a beam in the front part of the house. It was so tight in there that I had to pull myself along the floor and squeeze under several huge beams.
Our clothes were so filthy that we had to take them outside and dust them off… And then put them through the washer twice
Around 9 o’clock tonight we talked ourselves into going to the Sandbar and for a Halloween party. We quickly made up costumes.. And we picked up our friend Loren to take her. Our friends John, Duane and Jana B were there. It was great EDM music. I wore my lab coat that spread with glow-in-the-dark paint. People could draw on me with Uv lasers
Nov 1 is either All Souls’ Day or the Day of the Dead.. I’m going to gout and pour one out for Sam as soon as I’m done writing. He’d like that
Today turned out to be nice and quiet . We were flooded in. Nearly all the roads out of our town were under water .. all schools were closed in this part of the state
It was actually pretty devastating. Part of sugway toad nearby washed out as did tower road near ibm . Check it out
