9:22 pm

Not very tired but should be. I took my daughter to a 2 hour basketball practice in Portsmouth, NH and managed to sneak in some photography. I got several nice shots of the sun setting over the Mill Pond looking westerly.

I visited my dad at 1:30 today. We went for a 1.5 mile +/- walk. My father saw an old hey wagon on Woodbridge Road and immediately nocked on a neighboring door and he asked if it were for sale. A twenty something gentleman asked us to come inside where father found out he knew the owners mother and that the wagon was not for sale. The weather was great, 40's, not quite cold! Bright and sunny...spring is closer.

We walked back to Sentry Hill via Varrell lane from Woodbridge and passed Rita's house, Rita is my father's second wife. Divorced. Upon return to Sentry Hill we ran into Jack Lewis an artist at Sentry Hill who is 90 years old. He is very interested to paint my father's potrait. After negotiating by himself, with himself he decided he would charge $100 for a protrait or $20 an hour. He added we would not have to pay if it wasn't suitable. We agreed to the terms. Jack and I played a couple of songs on our resptective harmonicas and I managed to get back to work for an hour. Not enough.
