After breakfast, John worked on the electric lines. The power was hooked up at the old house, so he and Dave went up the hill for poles and started stringing a line over to camp. I went shopping and did some laundry in Yellville. When I got back, John had the refrigerator plugged in. The pump is plugged in too. James Pearson came over to see Val while we were gone. Got our first "Mountain Echo" today. Tonight, Dave rebuilt his lean-to and made it larger. We all went swimming down at the creek tonight - even the dog. She decided she like the water.
