The Ridge
On Tuesday, Oct. 26th Bill was up at 6 and Gibbs and I got up at 6:30. I didn’t think Bill would be working because of the information I got last night but even though it was very wet, spitting and misty out there, Bill was told they were meeting at the red shed. I thought this was odd because it was an outdoor job. Anyway, he left at 7:30 and Gibbs and I stayed put.
we've gone from one lovebug to another
This was Oct. 26th, 2018
Clemson sleeping in the back seat on our trip south
My plan
was to leave the Suite at 9:15 to meet Donna in Durham. By 8:30, Bill texted
that he was on his way home. Too wet to work. 😊 That gave me some relief because it meant that Gibbs wouldn’t
be alone for the 3+ hours I would be away. Donna and I were at Value Village by
10:10 and went our separate ways. Neither of us ‘needed’ anything nor were we
looking for anything specific. We still spent 1 ½ hours in the store and had
fun. I found a duvet cover to change up the look at home, a couple of tops and a gift for a friend.
We stopped at a Sam's Club, Lincoln, Nebraska
Oct. 26, 2018
After we
were at the car, we saw my brother-in-law’s truck parked behind us so we went
back in the store just to track them down. We made a point not to take our
purses back in, and laughed about it because it meant we couldn’t be tempted to
buy anything else. We saw John and then Gayle for a few minutes and headed out
to the Heritage Mall. I’d never been in before. We had more laughs at the two
of us getting ‘lost’, we must be sisters!
Before heading home, we drove to our other sister, Wendy’s, and I left her with a small gift for her and Morgan. I also got a goodbye hug which is always special. ♥ The rain never let up all day, even if it wasn’t heavy. The winds made the day bitter cold, feeling like -1C/30F. Tomorrow sounds better, for a few days we’ll be around 12C/52F so that will be easier to take.
Bill and
Gibbs had a good day at home. More reservations made on top of last night’s confirmed
stops for the drive down so things are looking great. So far. 😊 I had to pick M up at his mechanic’s shop since he finished
the Chev pick up and was taking it back this afternoon. It took half hour but
he wouldn’t let me leave without giving me $ for my time and fuel. That was
nice but not necessary.
Wind socks along the open plains were something
we hadn't yet seen
Back
home, we watched Sully, a good Tom Hanks movie about Captain Chesley ‘landing’
his plane on the Hudson River to save his passengers and crew. True story and
worth a watch if you haven’t seen it. For supper, I reheated the last of the
ham, cooked a potato for Bill with some corn and some cauliflower rice and
spinach for me. It was quite good and easy. The freezer is pretty bare so I
have to be a bit creative.
A good supper tonight, here at home
The
evening slipped by in the warmth of our home with the cold windy night whipping
around outside. Brrr. I hope you have a great evening too. Needless to say, I didn't take any pictures other than my supper plate. LOL
This was taken in Oct. 2018 and I was obviously
playing with my settings
Good night!
Thank you
for stopping in. We had a great day.
