Getting Ready for Dale Hollow
One of the nice features of retirement is being able to work one day and
then not work the next if you so choose. After being on the tractor
almost all day yesterday, today was one of the days where I didn't work
much. I did load Trevon and Stacey into the HHR with me and we went to
the grocery store for 'stuff' to take boating tomorrow. We bought 4
cases of pop, half a ham, 6 packs of buns, 5 bags of chips, dip and
salsa, 2 packs of cookies, grapes and I don't know what else. We came
back and had sandwiches and then went down to the hay shed and worked on
cleaning up the boat and finding all the other stuff we take with us.
That didn't take long and Trevon and Stacey played basketball after we
were done working. Later, I found Linda setting on the creek bank with
Trevon waist deep in the water. He picked out lots of rocks to take back
to Nana while throwing the rest across the water. He has learned to skip
rocks a little better.
These pictures remind me of when I was a kid about Trevon's age
living here. I told Linda, Trevon needed a cane pole with a little boat
on a string tied to the end like I used to play with in the creek.
