Rain Rain Go Away |
20 degrees/cloudy/calm winds
Pentoga Road
What a gray and damp day today was. We awakened to freezing rain and slick conditions. Sargie went ahead and got ready for work, but with the rain freezing on everything it touched and area schools closing, we decided it would be best if she stayed home.
The rain finally quit so I spent a good part of the morning cleaning the drive by hand. There was barely an inch of snow covered with a layer of ice.
UPS finally arrived later in the afternoon bringing the brushes for the lathe.
It didn't take long to replace the old ones with the new.
With Sargie home, I spent the rest of the day inside, fiddling around, watching television, and making another flower. I even managed to sneak in a couple of short naps along the way.
The Lord and the weather willing, Sargie will be back to work Wednesday. It will be her last before a four day hiatus while we spend a long weekend in Gladstone, Michigan, with the Milligan sisters and husbands. This will be the third year that we gather at a resort on Lake Michigan for a weekend of sitting around the indoor pool, soaking in the hot tub, eating, and of course, gabbing and laughing.
I'll be back in the shop tomorrow after my daily walk. There are several projects to work on and I'm eager to try out my newly fixed lathe.
Meanwhile, it's about time to call it a night and head upstairs to bed.
After all, a man's work is never done.
So are the tales from Pentoga Road...

Wonder which one is the old brush? |
