I keep a log of neighborhood activity. This is not surveillance. It is community awareness. The log is 340 pages. That is also normal.

Block party logistics: music ends at 21:00 per noise ordinance. Last year it ended at 21:04. I documented this. It will not happen again.

Noticed the recycling at 22 Larksomer changed from bi-weekly to weekly. That is fine. I support increased recycling. I did notice, though.

New family moving into 19 Ressler. Brought a welcome basket with a neighborhood schedule, recycling guide, and brief history of the hydrant dispute. They seemed overwhelmed. That is normal.

The Odalmans' new fence is 4 inches over the property line. I have mentioned this twice. The fence remains. I will mention it again.

Cliff keeps such detailed records. I respect this about Cliff.

Mrs. Keetch at number 8 has switched to a low-sodium diet. I can tell from the grocery delivery. I hope she is feeling well. I have not asked yet. I will.

Block party update: the Odalmans confirmed they will bring folding chairs. They will set up east of the hydrant, as required. I have measured.

Recycling reminder: bins out by 7:00 on Days 3, 10, 17, and 24. I can hear when your bin goes out. Most of you are late.

11th Annual Quelmire Block Party confirmed for Day 24!! I have the permits, the schedule, and your dietary restrictions on file. Yes, all of you.
