As I mention
before, August is filling up faster than I can
keep straight.
This past
weekend was no exception. There were trips
to Couer d’
Alene, lawn mower races, friends visiting.
Neighbor
outside flowers and trees to water, and runs
to the store…
More friends stopping by. Working in the
garage and
house.
Then there
was the fairgrounds run to drop off a rice
dish for two
friends, and a picture to enter in the fair.
This is my
first time ever…to have something entered.
Heard all
kinds of horror stories of long waits and fussy
fair managers…
all which was not true.. No 2 hours
of waiting
lines.. I got right in.. filled out tag, went to
the photograph
area, was # 3 in line… walked thru the
processed,
check and all was good, thank you very much.
So instead of
a 2 hour wait, I was in and out in 15 minutes.
Which I have
to admit, I got there 10 minutes before the opening,so maybe that
has a lot to do with it.. as the parking lot was filling up as I left.
Being early
has it merits.. we were 15 minutes early to Costco on Saturday
morning. Had our pick of parking space, instead of the musical
chairs parking. Was second one in, and
half an hour later
we were out of there. A record.
Next weekend
is going to be just as bad or worse. But we will be home
during it all. We have to blow dust out the of the garage. Wash down the
garage, and then hang plastic curtains on all sides of
the garage. We will be trying to have it spotless.
This will be
a painting chamber. The worse will be
trying
to make sure
we have all the stuff out of the way. We did
clean out a
whole stall 2 weeks ago. Anyway, we figure it
is going to
be an all weekend job. Hanging the
plastic curtains is not going
to be fun either.
The count
down has started. We are 10 days away on our count down. PAINT DAY
