Long day yesterday. Jerry worked all day with the grader and backhoe getting the old driveway out and hauled to the dump. Today he will try to get the road base in. I have to go to the dentist this morning and I am not looking forward to that at all. I am sunburned, sore, and both of my legs cramped all night. I had to do something that I am just not used to yesterday. Physical work. Jerry and his wife Gail and I grew up together through our teens and Gail works as hard as any of them. She is in great shape for a 60 year old person of any gender. I had to take breaks and she just kept shoveling and loading stuff. Wow, to be young and just 60 again.
I think our wet weather is over now. It is in the 80s now and may last in that range for a week before we jump to the 90s and then the 110+ Summer heat. I am miserable, hurt over, and my legs really hurt but I never felt better in a long time. Won't be able to get the Cobras out for about a week as they had to dig so deep to find good ground to put the road base on and I sure can't get them out of that 13" drop off at the edge of the street. But progress is being made and that is encouraging.
