At that point I had to  take Silas, Pucket and Kayla to get gas for Kayla&#8217;s car which had run out on Cochran rd. It was a day so grilled of working with my hands that my brain was completely at peace&#8230;<br \/>    Diane got back from Marci&#8217;s around 6:30 and we went for a run with Chai in the beautiful late afternoon .. Gabe called as soon as we got back to tell us that Skanky Green was playing in the park. It was the &#8216;Rock the Earth&#8217; concert with about 6 bands.
