Day 906

We got up at 7 today.  We really didn't need to get up until 7:30, but we couldn't get back to sleep.  We did the pet stuff and had breakfast.  Isaac came over about 7:45.  We got into the car and went to Meridian.

There were a quite a few people with sales.  Some had interesting items and others weren't worth stopping at.  Isaac did score some video games and Legos for good prices.  We bought a couple of gifts for Martha and the kids.  We spent about two hours there.  Then we went home so Isaac could get a package ready for mailing.

I didn't want to go to the Austin post office because it was in the wrong direction.  So we went to the Dripping Springs one instead.  It is closed on Saturday.  So we went to the UPS store in  Dripping Springs.  It wanted $18 to ship a small package containing an ink cartridge.  Screw them.

From there we went to the founder's day.  We spent the next two hours or so walking around.  We ate BBQ for lunch and donated to a couple of charities.  It was a lot of fun for us, but Isaac was bored stiff.

We had parked at the park behind HEB.  We started walking back.  As we got to the store Lee texted to say he'd finally got there.  So Isaac and I walked back, Ellen continued to the park with the dog.

I found Lee when we got back.  He introduced me to a couple of his friends and I introduced him to Isaac.  We talked for awhile and he offered us beer and some really good BBQ.  We accepted and talked for  quite awhile.  He also gave Isaac a lead to a part time job delivering for a feed store.  Unfortunately a band started up nearby.  That put an end to conversation.

We said our goodbyes and walked back to the park.  I really didn't want to go home, so we stopped at Austin Java and sat outside with the dog.  We had some chips and beer.

When we got home Isaac went to the apartment to list items.  I took a nap.  Later on Isaac came back and we watched a couple of MMA matches together.  Then Isaac went back to listing items.

I watched TV and read for the rest of the evening.
