More Popcorn
I woke Linda and Stacey up early and fixed breakfast before we left for the Elementary School. We walked in a few minutes after 8 AM and began popping popcorn. Henry Holly was there and was helping also. We kept the popper running constantly until we had popped enough to fill about 450 bags. It was about 10:45, so we swept up and turned everything off and left the building. I drove the HHR to Albany and we stopped at McWhorter's Store so Linda could buy some items for embroidering. After that stop we went to a place we hadn't been before. It was a plant nursery that sold hardware and all sorts of odd items. Pedal cars, electric lights and appliances, furniture, and shoes to name a few. We looked through their shop and then went to lunch while we were in Albany. I drove us back to the farm and Linda and Stacey went inside. I went to the wood shed and messed with the log splitter. After a short time, I went back to the house and Linda went to work at the after school day care. Stacey and I went to the hay shed and I jump started the Ford tractor and let it run a little to charge the battery. We picked up Daisy and let her run through the hay fields down at the other place, then brought her back and put her in her stall and gave her food. We went inside and after a little while Linda came back home. She is getting ready to go to the Homemaker's Party tomorrow evening by making a dessert.
