Land Work Day 4

Today was dedicated to sweeping and scraping and scrubbing that dirt-encrusted concrete floor. It finally got to the point where no further progress could be made so Southern Man went into town and bought a mop and returned and first mopped the trailer (he keeps the trailer extremely clean as to not tempt the mice) and then made several passes with the mop in The Barn. 

Southern Man also dropped by the big gym near the current casa (he has budgeted a gym membership, not only to work out but as a place to shower) only to find that due to some new federal regulation they are closing their lap pool. It's just ten bucks a month but Southern Man was kind of hoping to swim laps in the mornings so he checked a much more upscale (and pricier) health club that does have a lap pool but is $50 per month. That's not much more than the local YMCA and much nicer, so he'll check out Gold's Gym (there are several between The Land and The Job) and make a final decision sometime this week.

Southern Man has had long-standing issues with insomnia but sleeps quite soundly in The Trailer!
