We had a new book published on the history of Waipa, that is our local district. I went to buy the book yesterday, in the hope of finding something interesting. It turned out that there is a lot of information about William Jackson, who built our house, most of it we already know. There was even a photo of the house, taken on April 1, when the Battle of Orakau was commemorated, 150 years ago. The author came around while we were working on the deck. His caption reads: "William Jackson's house in Grey Street, Kihikihi has recently undergone extensive renovations." We are very pleased.

I visited my doctor, and after that we went to visit the goat farming friends. A delightful day.

Some time ago I bought a booster pump to improve the pressure of out hot water system off a frind, but never put it to use. When I tried it, it was frozen solid. I took it apart and got it working again, but has not had the opportunity to test it on a low pressure system. Saturday was spent mowing grass and trimming edges, which I don't like.  

The rest of the week was restful, with us not being able to do any major work because of a full house.
