Pedro's character is dead where I left off last night and they killed Derek Jacobi's character too. Though he had less to do this time. But still.

Sorry for the spoilers. So if you haven't seen it or don't ignore this post.



Hehe... No worries about spoilers for me. I can't imagine any scenario where I watch Gladiator II and pay any attention to it. I honestly can't believe they didn't show off Pedro's legs in the movie.

I gave you a happy early birthday, but now I'll give you a happy late birthday.


Finally going back outside to work today. We still had some rain early in the morning yesterday, so I didn't go out in the slop. It's going to be 87 degrees today, with 3 more in the 80's and that's it for the toasty weather this year around here. Gotta make the most of the time I have left.

That damn mole didn't take a break after I quit on last Saturday. For a full week he's been ripping up that sandpit that I had leveled out last week. He still doesn't appear to have gotten into stuff that I've finished, although I'm a little worried about behind the garage. It's hard to really tell though because I've got about 5,000lbs of rock stacked up on top of it so I won't know until I start filling in the main sand pit later next week after I get all the other stuff done.

Going to trench out the foundation on the back and side of the house first so I can scrub and rinse it before putting on the tar. After that, I'm going to work on the fencing to try to keep the mole out of the 2nd half of the main sand pit. At least so far, it doesn't look like he's been able to get in and damage anything other than possibly the back of the garage slab.

My old man asked me what do I do if I trap him in the sand pit. I laughed and said that he can go above ground and just dig a hole outside of it. But I do wish I had been able to build those underground fences for the sand pit before the week long rain made its way in here. It would be nice to be able to verify he couldn't do any damage in there over the last 6 days before putting down stone.

There's really only two fences I need to put down to keep him out of that pit though. I'm going to try to get those done along with 1 coat of tar today. There are still a few more fences I want to make inside of that sand pit too as double protection around the porch and the side of the house foundation, and I do want to allow enough dry time for the tar to apply a 2nd coat like I did everywhere else, so I should have a few days time to see if I'm successfully keeping him out or not.

Gotta start getting up earlier. Sun is going down way too quick these days.

--------------------------------------------------

For all that I've blessed, and all that I've wronged. In dreams until my death, I will wander on.

Nope, no real leg on Pedro but lots of face shots which like I said I could more than live with. The movie was good and different from Russell's Gladiator. Going to get a copy but not sure if my birthday or Christmas.

Oooh, you get dry and we get rain all weekend, even on my birthday. Waaah. S'no fun.

Sorry about the mole. But I doubt they can get through rock. Dirt and sand would be nothing to the critters.

Yeah it is too bad that you couldn't have put that fence down deeper with the wire. Is the chicken wire holes really small because if they are too big a mole could get through easily. Just my thought.

Well, I hope you can keep the mole from doing too much or any more damage to all your work.

Tell me about the sun setting too early. After 6pm and I have to turn on a light or it starts to get too dingy in here.

Out soon and I have to go to another grocery store to see if I can get any lamb chops for my birthday supper. Then I have to pick up a few other things I need. Don't know what I am getting myself for my birthday. I will think of something as I have a couple of ideas in mind.
