Day 10

 Oh my, what a sweltering day we have had.  Knowing this would be the case and knowing that it is indeed Monday, we set the tone for the day by finally singing (and learning some new verses) the Mountain Dew song.  This was followed by the Llama song and preceded by the Coffee song.  A note to anyone who is actually paying attention:  Make sure your homesteaders remember to bring their water bottles to Village!  Dehydration is uncomfortable and dangerous.

Early beZerk had all kinds of werk happening all over the place (very surprising?!?).  The most amazing thing happened this morning, Jared moved his peep, Dizzy Izzy into his home down on the land!  We have our first completed house!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dizzy's house!

After snack we went for an extended swim because the weather today was SO hot!!!  The cob oven was fired up and Owen made giant bread for everyone to enjoy.  Because of the heat and the bread enjoyment, we spent some extra time on lunch today as well.  During beZerk number two the select peeps had their first meeting.  I tried to spy to find out what went on by placing a walkie talkie in their circle.  This provided me with little insight.  What think I know is that the select peeps are planning to raise a tax, possibly on the bank accounts.  Will this lead to a run on the bank?  I also overheard some other peeps gossipping about meeting no longer being open to the public.  Laws about trespassing, theft and vandalism were discussed and passed with fines and punishments involving a judge.  It is not clear who the judge is or if there will be trial by jury.  Also discussed was the importance of having meeting- are meetings really necessary?

a great fence!

 I am hoping to hear more about all of this on the radio tomorrow or read about it in the Red Fez.
