Had a nice Sunday today, hanging out in the morning with J, doing the crossword, having a fruit bowl, and a leisurely shower. It was a beautiful afternoon and I went back over to my client's house to chase the other leak which wasn't solved last week as I didn't want to worry about it anymore. No climbing this time--just took up the deck flats on the inset entry portion between the benches and hosed the rubber roof underneath until it leaked downstairs. It could have been a nightmare repair but I'm pretty sure it will just be a matter of powerwashing, wiping down with solvent, and generous cove caulking where the rubber's come away a bit from the LCC flashing in places. I'll need a couple good dry days but I'm optimistic it won't be the disaster I'd envisioned.
I took one of the Millies along today and shot these when I got home to find my eldest had shown up, installed the replacement dryer belt I'd ordered, and had the machine up and running. Good man--back to softer U-trow and sox.

"doing the crossword, having a fruit bowl, and a leisurely shower." All at the same time? That takes some serious skill!
Beautiful shot of this Military.
