Journal: |
Got up at 8am and called Clio to see if she
wanted to come out to the AT. No conclusion was reached so I left
it that I would call again on Saturday. After breakfast, I spent
the morning doing washing and cleaning, updating my diary,
trip-planning and playing with the good-natured Aidan. Gordon came
home for lunch and a friend, Celia, and her two children came as
well. A few hours passed chatting and the afternoon went quickly
too, as I drafted my reply to Syntec, watched TV and played with
Aidan. After an early dinner, Bo Cocks rang from Australia to say
they would be in Maine from August 19 and would like to see me (Bo,
the American wife of an Australian work colleague, was the person
who had first sparked my interest in the AT). We worked out some
means of contact. It would be good to see them, but I might almost
be finished by August 19th. Pam then took me to the supermarket and
I did my shopping. On return we all watched TV and talked. I went
to bed at midnight. It was a very restful day and I feel it has
done my feet some good. |
