Friday

It was half-day today, but no one let ME go home early! So I worked on the inventory all afternoon.

On the way home I stopped in at Pykles Plumbing. It is pronounced "pie-cles", by the way. I bought a little copper fitting to use on my walking staff to bind the end. It will look fabulous, I'm sure. Unbelievably, it is EXACTLY the right size! The fellow who helped me was very helpful. I've only spent about five bucks total in the several times I have been here, but the folks who work here have always been EXTREMELY helpful.

I saw this wierd (weird) thing with dollar bills hanging on it. He said he found it in the trash, and decided to put it on the counter there, made the sign, and folks have been adding to it, and some taking away. I am very impressed with people's generosity. I feel guilty I didn't put anything on it.



They have a real nice showroom of plumbing and remodeling stuff, too. If you are in the area, and need hardware, check it out!

I rode the bike there, of course. I re-mounted the flag so it sticks out the left-side, the more to annoy the cars.

Just over 41 miles on the odometer for the week. Yippee!!
