Sunday, February 8/2015 - Saturday, February 14/2015

The start of another busy week is upon us. I tried a new recipe for blueberry muffins on Sunday and man, did they ever turn out good.
It was a day of rest today so no renovations done. It  was good just to sit and relax.
This week found us back in the bathroom finishing up all the necessary projects. The door was installed and most of the trim put up. Man, that is one tedious job but it is slowly getting there!!
We got another load of wood this week as well. With a campfire almost every night, it isn't taking too long to burn through our wood pile!! Marybeth comes over most nights so we get to catch up on the latest gossip around town!!
John's thumb is slowly getting better but, it has certainly been getting in the way a lot. He has "banged" it more times than he wants to remember!! Hopefully, it continues to improve and the sutures can come out on Friday as scheduled.
We discovered a leak under the trailer where the new pipes were installed so I phoned the plumber dude and it took him a few days to get someone over here to fix it. It was an elbow joint leaking and was an easy fix.
Gold Rush Days started in town on Friday and the town's population exploded with many visitors coming for the festivities. It was VERY busy in town and the cops were out in great numbers trying to keep things under control.
We celebrated John's 60th Birthday on Friday by spending the night on the town. It was a lot of fun and we were fed and watered and back home safely by midnight. Man, what a gong show in town though!! There were people everywhere and the bars were pretty packed. We had Mitch drive us into town then took a cab home. It would be a real bad idea to drive drunk around here, especially during Gold Rush.
All in all, it was a pretty good week. The weather has been awesome and I have now started on my suntan so that I can make Kimmy jealous when I get home!!
