Schell's "BeachWeb" for September 2012
YES - Today is Sunday, the 23rd of September, 2012
I went for a tricycle ride, this morning (it was VERY WET when I left
home, but by the time I returned it was pretty dry!)... there's not much
'new' to report on the tricycling route, these days,
EXCEPT that I took this one picture, of the house on it's 'new-stilts'
(concrete pilings).
IF you don't remember I took a picture "EARLIER" this summer (about July
2012); this is the same house, with a bunch of 'cribbing' underneath it,
to support the house while they build the concrete pilings, (and the
footings and the 'sand-screws' that hold everything in the soft, Florida
sand... - Needless to say this was both a lengthy (and I'm guessing
expensive) project. BUT - it's the sort of thing that happens, I
guess when you own a 'beach-house'?
This was today's tricycling route (the purple line) of 'approximately' 33
miles. - more on this later
SINCE today is ONLY the first of September, there's NOT MUCH TO REPORT,
YET!
This may be an older picture but it is still pretty good!
Kiln-Things:
I'm having trouble identifying about 900 bricks - and it appears as though
SOME (about 398) are properly labelled,
some others may have to be individually measured in order to determine what
type they are, and even that is not 'definitive'?
SO - that along with my toothache (recently diagnosed (and 'fixed' (with a
"Root Canal"))) are my current 'problems' -
EVENTUALLY there will be more here. - if you're really hurting you can do
either of these:
OH: On the next-to-last Friday in August I received a BUNCH of the
bricks I'm having trouble with...
YOU can view the images, (some of which are not 'oriented' quite right) - by
clicking on this link... - the files are NOT in chronological order... -

OR - you can view some 'Kiln Assembly' picture(s) (which SHOULD be in
'chronological' order) here:

and/or you can see this blog-site which may be of more 'value added' if you
are looking for Kiln Pictures (and a tiny bit of text?): http://vikingasia.blogspot.com
