THANKS, BILL!!Bill Rennolds, my former college roommate and longtime best friend, flew in from Atlanta last week, spending time away from his family and burning well-deserved vacation time to help with the heavy demolition phase of gutting the basement. In about four days he and I managed to do what would have taken me a month to accomplish on my own. Bulldozer Bill and I ripped out walls, ceilings and just about everything else imaginable revealing all manner of plumbing peculiarities and electrical oddities. I'm grateful fo
r Bill's capable help, his tireless enthusiasm, his creative problem solving and his invaluable sense of humor!But his visit wasn't all work and no play. We visited the Gavin's Point Dam near Yankton one day. While at the visitor's center on the Nebraska side of the Missouri River we spotted no fewer than nine American Bald Eagles. They were perched in a nearby stand of tall trees on the riverbank, occasionally swooping down to harass the waterfowl paddling around below the dam.
