THE GATHERING STORM
AFTER THE 2003 SURVEY I FIGURED IT WAS TIME TO SEAL THE NEW ASPHALT AND ENDED UP COATING IT TWICE, USING 15 5 GALLON BUCKETS. THE NEIGHBORS OLDEST BOY SPENT A WHOLE DAY WATCHING AND TALKING AS I DID THIS. ....I SPENT THE REST OF MY SUMMER BUILDING A REDWOOD GAZEBO. THE SUMMER OF 2004 ARLENE AND I BUILT SOME FLOWER BEDS, GETTING RID OF HILLSIDES IN THE YARD.
AT SOME POINT DURING THIS 2 YEAR PERIOD, 2003-2004, LITTLE THINGS STARTED HAPPENING THAT SHOULD HAVE TOLD ME THAT THE NEIGHBORS WERE NOT HAPPY. BUT, SINCE I DIDN'T NOTE THEM ON MY CALENDER , AND I NOTE EVERYTHING ON MY CALENDER, I MUST NOT HAVE CONSIDERED THEM THAT IMPORTANT.
