July 18th

Jack and I had a great day of relaxation.  We ventured into town around nine, stopping for breakfast at the Diamond C and then the laundry room at the bunkhouse.  While our clothes spun away, Jack swam laps at the rec center while I ran on the treadmill.

Jack and I spent the afternoon at the library reading and taking advantage of their internet.  We'd been there whike when the librarian came up to me and asked if I'd ve willing to help a fisherman with a math problem.  She brought over a couple who recently had a gas tank fabricated for their boat.  His wife knew the exact dimension but where at a liss as to how to calculte the its volume.   I did the calculations for them and then taught them how I went about it.  Teaching a person to fish after giving them the fish - one upping the famous proverb in the process.
