It is almost 600 miles each way. Lydia was a real trooper.
We stopped at Demo's, in Lebanon, TN, for supper. Lydia had to check out the flowering bushes.
She went swimming in Tom & Mary Lou's lake several times. She and Wendy are having a great time splashing while on the "raft".
My major project (it wasn't that major) while here was adding the plumbing and an electrical outlet for our new washer. Kathy and Kelsey found it while "junking" at the Habitat Re-Store in Jefferson City. If I had any idea how much a front load washer weighs I might not have went in and picked it up. There is no way I could come close to lifting half of it to get it out of my pickup. Fortunately Doug & Anthony were at our house when I brought it home and with there help, and Andy's we were able to get it out of the back of my truck and into the shed. I used the loader on my tractor to get it back in the truck. Here in TN one of the neighbors came over with his tractor and loader to get it out of my truck.
Tom (my property manager <GRIN>) keeps the lawn mowed for us. I did do some weed eating while here and also burned the pile of brush left over from my last trip.
Today we ordered the countertop our TN kitchen. Monday or Tuesday we will order the base cabinets. Like an idiot I went to Lowe's first, thinking I could get what I wanted with one stop. I should have known better. As we have with other things for the cabin we are buying the countertop and cabinets from Potter's, a local hardware store. They had cabinet units like we wanted and the price was better than Lowes. Not only that, Potter's will deliver the stuff for free.
My plan is to come back to TN in a week or so and get serious about working on the kitchen.
Good night and may God bless you and yours.
