Stuff

Past few days have been more of the similar kinds of projects.  Yesterday we finally finished the decking around the spa bath.  It is awesome to have seen that structure come along, since none of us knew much about building structures from scratch and yet we've come out with some good.  The spa bath fireplace is done as of yesterday, and we're just giving it a couple days for the mortar to set before putting the chimney and vat on top.  All that is left for the spa bath is for us to lay out the hose and get some rain!

Last night Jon and I went flounder fishing.  It was a really cool experience.  We started out in an estuary and walked towards the sea.  Where we parked had no water to begin with, but soon we were ankle deep as the tide was coming in.  By the end, there were areas where the water would have been over our head.  We were far enough away from the sea that it just seemed like the water was filling up from nowhere.  All we had was a light and a spear fro each of us, and not knowing what we were doing, I was happy that we each got one.  They are really well camouflaged and slowly swim with the tide.  We'd slowly walk towards them, and just spear them  (or just one) as they came towards us.  It is neat to catch it and then have it go full circle when we pan fried them up and ate them for breakfast.

hmmm... just took a break for lunch, and now i am no longer motivated to keep writing. bye for now.
