Day 128

We went to Wimberley to go estate saleing today.  There were 3 place in Wimberley and one in Driftwood, so it was worth the trip.

The Driftwood place was well off the beaten path.  It was a little house with not much of interest.  However they did have a nice, big, microwave for $20.  So I got it for the apartment.  We also got some hand painted wall plates.

Two of the places in Wimberley were actually businesses.  I'm not sure how I got the idea that they were estate sales.  Some people are a little tricky in how they write their ads.  One of the places was nothing but junk.  The other had some neat stuff, but nothing that we needed.  The last place was actually an estate sale.  I picked up a golf ball display and Ellen got a Road Runner print.  Apparently we missed some nice road runner stuff because they started the sale yesterday.

We went home via San Marcos.  We stopped at a restaurant down RR12 that we always wanted to stop at when we were looking at houses.  It was a nice mexican place.  We ate outside with Lucy.  She sat on a platform next to the table that essentially put her at the same position as if she was setting in a chair.  She never tried to eat our food.  Few dogs are that well behaved.

On the way back we stopped at Cabela's . They have restocked their guns.  It's at maybe 80% of normal.  They still don't have any ammo or reloading stuff.

When we got home I decided to get some small chores done.  Ellen and I spread the sand.  I shoveled and she raked.  It was amazing.  I would throw a shovel full of sand onto the gravel and it would literally disappear into the gravel.  We're going to need a whole lot more sand.

I then taped up the flamingo and Ellen painted it.  She used both shades of pink and it came out nice.  Finally I installed the track in the golf ball display I bought.

Apparently buying the microwave insured that Hooch isn't coming.  He's putting Mom on a plane at the end of the month and then they are going to Sun River.  Oh well.
