Friday, August 10/2012

I am up early this morning and can hear that Larry is up as well.  The sun is shining and it looks like it is going to be another nice day today.
John and I made the trip into Spiritwood today to get more wood for the man cave and stopped by the appliance store where we quickly picked out a  new fridge and freezer.  We were there about 10 minutes and spent a thousand dollars!!  Not bad eh?!!
I then stopped at the grocery store and the drug store.  With our purchases loaded onto the truck, we headed back to Leoville.  The appliances will be delivered next week and that is a good thing as John has to re-arrange the shop as the appliances have to go at the back of the shop and right now, there is a jeep in the way.
When we got home, we decided to go and have a beer beside Vimy Lake.  We have so many little lakes so close to us that we could probably have a beer beside a different lake for a month.
We decided to take the Vimy Tower road to the lake and that was fun.  Larry did take on a bit of water at one point in the trail where once again, Mr. Beaver had been busy trying to raise the water level in the area.  Damn them anyway!!
We met Dave on the trail just before we got to Vimy.  I had mentioned to him when I went to get a bag of ice that we were headed that way for a beer and invited him to join us.
We sat a vimy for about and hour and a half then headed back to Leoville where once again, it was time for supper.
Tonight, burgers and macaroni salad was on the menu.  Both were good.  I started a campfire and that seemed to take the chill out of the evening.  It is getting closer to fall now (as all the golden rod and wild asters along the trail can attest to) and the chill is in the air in the evenings.  I did notice that a wood run is in our near future!!
The Saskatchewan Roughriders were playing football tonight and unfortunately lost once again.  Man, I think that is three in a row and that is not good!!
Our trail for the day

Heading home
The bed was soon calling to me and I headed in that direction.  I want to start the painting in the man cave tomorrow so need to rest up for that little ordeal!!   Good Night.
