White Dog, Steve and I loaded the ladder on the roof of the car, grabbed the Landlord bucket of tools and headed over to see if we could resuscitate Jesse's swamp cooler. The pump was dead and darkness was fast falling so we all agreed to finish the job in the cool of early morning. Then we all went to Applebee's to eat on the patio (so White Dog could join us) and to have much needed beverages. (It has been unusually humid as well as typically hot). Steve and Brenna shared bites of lime chicken and cheese sticks with the furry Princess...and our waiter brought out a bowl of ice cubes and water. White Dog enjoyed ending with my key lime pie but loved it when Brenna decided it was "a bite for me; a bite for you" sharing time as she ate her ice cream.
