TranscriptHugs called back. Cost of equipment comes to $2019 plus tax. I agreed; gave Gwyn a check for $2000 so he can put the bill on her Visa. Heavy lick, though: especially with upcoming expenses of repairing my teeth & the house, along with taxes & insurances. $20,000 minimum. Unbelievable.
Sarah’s son Chris was here, continuing the clean-up work he began last week. Gwyn works alongside him. Last week they moved along the driveway & Avery sidewalk; today they tackled the courtyard. Heavy going. Sent Hugs a clipping from a magazine with a reproduction from a 1929 issue of the Clarion-Register with a headline announcing the “Hughie Lee Foote, Jr” of Hattiesburg had won something called “the Edison prize” – whatever that was, & whoever he was; a distant cousin, no doubt. Got Lancia inspected as required for plate & sticker. Break-light nightmare. <-- |
