A very busy and productive day

6 am rise and shine
6:30 begin research for day
8:00 drive motorhome to Antioch for new front spring installation and alignment
8:45 leave Antioch for home to switch cars and drop Marilyn off, much too hot to have her sit in the car.
10: back in Antioch to inspect a home, temperature already hot
11: arrive early for next Antioch appointment, huge house very warm now
12:45 drive to subdivision, discover they are not there until 1
12:50 have lunch at In and Out, cheese sandwich
1:15 Kiper new homes, measure home in very hot weather
2:30 Drive home to do quick work, stop and shoot bathroom photo I missed the other day along the way
3:30 Drive back to Antioch to collect motorhome, Marilyn drives me in Civic, have chance meeting at Starbucks with Steve and girls, great fun to see them
4:00 pick up motorhome, enjoy driving a totally different coach, tracks straight, steering wheen is now straight, ride is smooth and stable, bumps no longer radiate through the steering wheel.
5:30 Leave for Tracy to see ranchette on Durham Ferry Road
6:14 Arrive and discover weather is still hot, property very nice
       Owners tell me about home built by two indian brothers just down the street, I've included a photo.  Amazing.

This little home has 8 car garages on both sides, a pool in the center of the home and 17 bedrooms.

Pretty amazing home worth several million dollars.  I'm pretty glad I don't have to appraise it ever!

So its been a pretty busy day with lots accomplished, yes it is hot and its hard to get ones self in gear to face the heat and measure two story homes which are surrounded by dust, junk, overgrowth but its all in a days work, plus the checks that appear in the mailbox sure help.

This morning I heard from Jason.  He was in the law library at his school in the downtown district of SF preparing for his first class.  Of course he has conflicting thoughts, one does when he ventures out into something so foreign and new.  I think we need to all pray for our kids, no matter how old they are, they face challenges we may have never even had to consider but God loves them so much.

So saying I'm sending love to all,

Tim
