It had been very warm for the past week or so, well above the norms and into the high 70s or low 80s. However, it got cooler this past weekend and will stay there for most of the week. Didn't do anything with new plants and such becuase it was supposed to get down as low as freezing in the next several nights.

Also wore long sleeves inside because we were scaping loose paint to get that room ready to paint. A very confined space and we were generating lots of dust and such - look at Kat's jeans and you will understand. And, she wasn't in there as long as Susan, Larry and I so she may have been the cleanest of the group......

I am wondering if we have pretty much gotten those walls down to the original whitewash that would have been used when that area was originally constructed. Where we are working is the basement under the 1904 addition when they expanded the keeper's quarters after the light was moved to the pier in 1903.
