The full moon last night was beautiful, and I had a great view of it rising through my bedroom window as I read. It sounds like the trek up to the bat cave with Janet went well, and I hope to see pictures. The guys had worked up a sling and pole contraption to carry her in her wheelchair. Between the full moon, the out-pouring of bats from the old mine, and her heart-felt appreciation, it was a roaring success. 

This morning I met some more Renaissance folks (one is a jeweler, another a potter) in the Apple Pool, and then spent the rest of the morning up at the Party Pool.  There was a baby up there, 9-month-old Aiden, but he was wearing a swim diaper - unlike a little girl who was in the swimming pool. That pool had to be drained/cleaned yesterday, and the day before, because of a 'serial pooper'.  Amazingly my rock towers from yesterday were still standing, and today's masterpiece finished with the top rock balanced on a teeny tiny point. 

Lunch turned out to be one of the decadent chocolate pastries Terry brought me back from Denver (because I can't eat chocolate at night) and then I "helped" her install a couple of wall sconce lights this afternoon.  Of course there were the usual Murphy's Law issues, but 2 of the 3 are now done.  She's (wisely) decided to leave the rest of the fun for another day.

Tomorrow will mark 3 weeks that we've been here, and we were planning on leaving Tuesday (after book club on Monday evening) since we really don't want to wear out our welcome. But Terry has twisted our arms <lol> to stay longer, so it looks like we'll be "forced" <g> to enjoy the hot springs and her gourmet cooking a while longer.  Elinor should be coming home in a week, and may need Terry's help, so we can continue to help out here with Neil.
