The woodpeckers have this stump pecked to death
December 29, 2018 - Saturday evening
11 degrees/cloudy skies/calm winds
Pentoga Road

I'm about to turn in for the night, but wanted to get something posted first. We're planning on leaving in the wee hours of tomorrow morning for Indiana and I doubt I'll have the chance to write Sunday evening.

Saturday was a good day. I began with the usual walk. Though it was only six degrees, the sun came out and made it a pleasant hike.

Mom and I went to town later in the morning, searching for an old cabinet or two to mount on the wall in the shop. The thrift store had several, but all were overpriced and not really what I wanted. I've about come to the conclusion that I'll simply make my own. They won't be pretty, but I bet they'll be effective.

I enjoyed a nap after lunch and failing to get up from the couch, fell asleep again later in the afternoon. Tired? No. Lazy? Uh huh!

The downstairs was swept and dusted this afternoon and I did a load of laundry. That was about the extent of my housework. Like I said, I was lazy today, really lazy. 

Mom and I had several good conversations today and Sargie and I will sure miss her. The twelve days she's been here have flown by.

Sargie was off of work early tonight. She, Mom, and I, met Yooper Brother Mark and Sheri in town for supper and had a good time.
I think we're all packed and ready to go. Hopefully, we'll arrive in Terre Haute mid afternoon on Sunday. Sargie and I will turn around and make the ten hour trip back to Pentoga Road on Monday. It's going to be a long two days.

It's time for bed. Since Mom no longer drives and I didn't hear Sargie volunteer to sit behind the wheel, it appears I'll be the captain of the ship tomorrow. 

After all, a man's work is never done.

So are the tales from Pentoga Road...
