Monday, September 17th, 2018…… Back to work today. Well, ok, not real work, but some chores. We
have no rain in the forecast for the next few days so I wanted to run to Home
Depot and pick up some more rock salt for my water softener. I walked Rylee,
ate in, and then took off for Albany. I also wanted to revisit Habitat for
Humanity. They had a step ladder and a workshop fan I was interested in. I made the first stop at Habitat. The fan was
gone, sold I’m guessing. The ladder turned out to have a broken part so I
passed on that as well. I did see a trailer that attaches to the back of a lawn
tractor and I have been looking for one. I asked but they said it wasn’t for
sale. Odd, since it was sitting out in the lot with a bunch of other stuff. I
will check back another day. I ended up with just the rock salt and headed home.
Lydia did some laundry today and I stayed out of her way! Later, we both did
some checking account work and paid some bills and then it was dinner and then
tv until bedtime.

2018…...
After the normal morning routine, Lydia headed off to play pickleball. I had
nothing on my plate today so I decided to head off to Eugene this morning. I am
looking for a pellet gun for the coyotes and wanted to see what Cabela’s had. I wanted to take an alternate road to Eugene. I had just seen a quarterly booklet that gets put out in stores and restaurants.
This publication lists all of the small towns in the area and posts events in
and around there. They have decent maps as well and I noticed a road going south
that comes out on Hwy 126 (just east of Eugene) that I wanted to take. It was
an interesting road and went through the woods and also some farming areas and a
few smaller towns and then came out in the heart of Springfield. While in town, I did drive by
Graveyard Carz to see if they were filming for the new season (not) and then
worked my way to Eugene and to Cabela’s. Then I wanted to hit Jerry’s building supply to
check on a mailbox and a threshold. Didn’t see much more than Home Depot or
Lowe’s so I headed back home. Lydia was working on more laundry so I just
rested for a bit and then went out to the shop to clean up a bit. She and I
both missed Kirk who worked on clearing out some blackberry bushes way out back
that I had asked him to do. Later, we fixed chili dogs and watched a few
episodes of Guys Grocery Games and then the first night of the AGT finals. I
like the magician Shin Lim and Glennis Grace. Don’t care for the Aussie teen
Janice Joplin wannabee. We’ll see tomorrow.
