most of this morning I have been watching tv. robert just came over and we are going to play ping pong.

5:05
when robert was here we played with the fish pond. there was three inch ice and we drilled a whole lot of holes with the drill. I stuck the siphon tube down one and blew some air under the ice and it came up under the drilled holes like volcanic springs. we finally chopped about a seven inch square out of the ice. we wanted to get a fish on top of the ice, so we waited until a small fish was below the hole and we stepped on the ice and the suction pulled up the fish but robbie stepped a little too hard and was standing on the bottom of the pool. the fish got back under through a crack in the ice.
