Sargie was ready to go by the time I arrived home. It was just a matter of closing up the back room and making sure everything was turned off.
Our five hour drive to Madison was, for the most part, pleasant. We ran in and out of snow and freezing rain along with slippery, but mostly dry road conditions.
Sargie and I crooned along the way, sometimes to music playing through the radio, other times acapella. The five hour drive went by fast.
We even sang and recorded Happy Birthday to nephew Garth.
We navigated in and around the backside of Madison to avoid any city traffic. Driving on two lane county roads and down the main streets of tiny farming communities is our cup of tea.
The hotel is in a perfect location with the medical center right across the street.
Not bad, one stop shopping. I can get my eyes examined, have a face lift, and get my taxes done all in a single visit.
As can only happen with Divine Intervention, Costco is directly behind the hotel and a large outdoor mall is two blocks down the street.
Never one to let a good opportunity pass her by, we found ourselves at the mall last night where Sargie found a few items she couldn't live without. There'll be a new cement frog and turtle decorating the pond/garden this coming summer.
Last night was a lazy, but fun one. A huge, family sized pizza was ordered and delivered and we ate the entire thing.
It felt so good not to care if a storm was dumping inches and inches of snow outside our window. Sargie and I were tucked in safe and sound.
Let's see, in other family news, Mississippi Brother Garry sent a picture of his latest bowl. About the time I think I'm getting this turning thing down, I see his work and realize how much I have to learn.
