We were pretty sure that we had taken care of everything that Elmer had asked for last week (including the six inch high numbers on the house!), so I had hidden a basket of flowers and a bottle of sparkling cider in the pickup. (I'm still not sure what I would have done with them, if he hadn't passed it...)
The volunteers enticed Elsie and Steve around to the front of the house for presents and pictures. (They had been working on leveling in the yard and were waiting to fill in the trench they had jack-hammered yesterday for the electrical conduit.) It was a very merry, happy group of people!
Happy, Happy Day!
