While Eva was on the Cape with my parents for an extra week she and my dad built a tiny free library. On our last visit to the Cape a few weeks ago Eva finished painting the library. While we were home Dad put the finishing touches on the library and got a 4X4 stake to be able to put it into the ground. Today the library was installed.
We’re on the Cape for the Labor Day Weekend. I think this is the first Labor Day Weekend in a very long time that we have been down. I completely forgot how busy it would be traffic-wise. We were in a few miles and about 40 minutes of traffic before the Bourne Bridge. But, we got down and were able to chill out and relax a bit. We did not bother with the beach today because it was so late in the day but the library is filled and installed and looks fantastic. People have already come to check it out.
We had an unexpected day off today. Fr. Rodney gave the school Easter Monday off which was a total surprise to everyone this morning. So, with a day off the kids got to doing all sorts of things.
Eva has been busily writing an adventure for us in Tiny Dungeon. She’s written 6 pages of a story and today we played that story. Her creativity extended into making a map for the game as well. Eva kept us entertained for a better part of a couple of hours as we created characters and played through this adventure of hers. She even created a special race of beings for Andy. They are Narwhalians. Andy made this character out of clay to represent his playable character in the game.
Later in the afternoon Andy had his karate class and then I had my Krav Maga class. Two front kicks into class the heavy bag when flying off its ring and crashed onto the floor. The hook that had been holding it in place bent so bad that it could no longer hold the bag up. I guess that hook wasn’t made to take the punishment of COVID isolation Krav Maga. I set about finding a suitable replacement because I do not like punching the air.
llison found some great fabric for the masks that she has been making. She found some Marvel Super Heroes fabric and has made masks for everyone in the house. She continues to learn how to make them better and better. We also found a stash of fabric in the basement that had been tablecloths for when she sold Barefoot Books. We recycled those into the inside fabric of the masks so that you always knew what side was facing out.
