I slept through the night. No 2:00 AM pain. The medication must be working. Or, maybe I had food poisoning from something I ate and it has worked it’s way out of my system! But if that were the case, why did it just happen at 2:00 AM?

I have been able to lay more block on the bathroom walls. Being 6″ block, I will need to cut a special piece in the corners to make up the difference. Also, in the corner where the plumbing vent comes up, I need to get a coupling and some glue before I cement these block in place, so the block in that corner are just stacked there. This gives me a better visual on quantities!

At one side of the kitchen gazebo, I had built up some rock walls and backfilled behind them to create a flat area for a second lanai. Today, I set up some forms around this area so that I can pour concrete here. I won’t have time this trip to pour the concrete, but this is one step closer!

In anticipation of leaving the island, I didn’t want to leave a large pile of gravel out in the roadway for others to help themselves to, so I began moving it onto the property.

And, of course, I had to visit the ocean shore for a quick dip in the swimming pool.

This is the view out towards the ocean from inside the swimming pool.
