Sunday, April 12

12:39 p.m.  This entry is another afternoon entry.  I got up this morning from the campground and worked to get the trailer here, but unfortunately, the ground is too wet and soft to back it next to the house.  There is a stiff wind from the south, so I'm ho;ping the rains will hold off long enough to dry the ground enough to let me back it in today.  I didn't get a hike in this morning like I wanted, but I did get in a breakfast.  Once again I ate too much, but it did taste good.  

Yesterday was a peaceful day and finally a good hike day.  In the evening we went to mom's horse club trivia night, and we had a fun time.

Today after trying once unsuccessfully to back in the camper, I went to mom and dad's and helped her accomplish a few things.  Then I came back home and tried to work on the pool.  I think I know where the big leak is coming from, but not I have to figure out how to deal with it.  And I'm hoping the pool motor didn't burn up in the process.  So I'm currently experimenting with filling the pool again to see if it will hold water, and then I will try to pool motor again.  Keep the fingers crossed.
