17MAY2011 @ Helena, MT (Me) and Ft. Yates, ND (Canoe) - Another bright good weather day began with breakfast at Shelly's on Prospect. It is my first ever visit to Shelly's ... I will return.

At Power Townsend I got a light bulb and two screw-in electric plugs and went over to the A-Frame. In short order all the lights and all the switches worked. In the garage two fluorescent fixtures have been residing on a shelf for several years. They are now suspended and one is plugged in to a ceiling socket ... and it all works. Ahh, improvement.

Matt arrived at about 1530 with a full UHaul and a friend to help. He handed over the May rent, I handed over the keys and I left the two of them to move in and arrange. It looks like leaving for North Dakopta tomorrow is reasonable. Weather.com tells me that paddl;ing on Friday is possible, so the timing sounds good also.
