Plumbing fiasco continues

The plumbing fiasco continues. There was a break through this
morning, however. Jerry found the pipe into the septic to which
the new pipe must be attached. He is continuing to work on the
ditch.

We are still sleeping and having breakfast in the RV. This
morning at 3:15 AM a spotlight woke us both up with a start. The
neighbors behind the barn have lots of yard lights and one of
them must have been triggered. In any case it got us both up,
but it went off after a few minutes and, fortunately, did not go
on again.

My new computer arrived yesterday. I have started moving stuff
to it, but have a long way to go. It is on the network and
Robert is already running puzzles on it. Microsoft decided to
re-boot it at 3 AM, even so the puzzle on my machine had gone
three times as far as the one on Robert's machine and his machine
had kept going. It's a speedy computer; has 4 processors. I
don't need that much machine, but I wanted the most memory, the
most disc space and the fastest one I could get and so I did.
Amazingly it only cost $800.00 including the monitor, speakers,
Microsoft Works 9, XP installed and with re-installation disc,
Vista installed and with re-installation disc. I am using XP.

Ariel will be ten on Tuesday so we are planning to meet the
Cowleys for supper at PeiWei, a Thai restaurant in Boulder.
