Pretty much another stay at home last few days except yesterday. I've been working on curtains for the motorhome and just a few other things. Got the refrigerator chalkboard painted and we both like it! Now to find some chalk so I can prime it.
Joe came over yesterday morning to borrow Ken's utility quad for a side job in Tonopah, NV. Once they loaded it up he came in and I fixed breakfast for all of us. He had his Mason pancakes once again. I told him we should have started this a year ago and maybe they wouldn't be moving! LOL. Ken and I had the more traditional breakfast of eggs etc.
Once we were done we headed for Carson City as Ken found a nail in a tire on the Tundra. Dropped it off at Discount Tire and then headed for Gardnerville for prescription pick up and Walmart.
We were headed down the curtain/rod isle and saw a couple there looking at curtains. They had masks on, but down below their mouths talking to each other. Took one look at us and off went their masks. We had a nice conversation and found that they just closed on their house in Yerington! Turns out they are only a mile or two from us, right by the gun range. Small world! Moving from Joshua Tree, CA. They said the little town is just overrun with tourists and AirBNB. They won't have that out here on their 63 acres!!
Headed back over to Discount Tire and then drove to Yerington and Dini's for a 4:00 pm dinner. We totally enjoyed and then because we had no wind at all we decided on a fire pit fire.
As soon as we got groceries put away I gave Karen a call and she came over. We had a nice evening enjoying the warmth by the fire. Eventually we called it a night!
This morning (Thursday) we didn't wake until 0630! Darn, half the day is gone haha. I needed to do some baking as Ken was out of treats and me too. Spent part of the day on that and then finished one set of curtains.
Ken put the tire back on so we took a short drive over to see where Larry and Lynn's place is. We could see it from the main road and it's nice! They got a steal on it too. I'm nosey, looked it up on realtor.com hahah. Welcome to the neighborhood!
It's been a lazy afternoon, it cool and cloudy outside. Got on the computer and did a little shopping for some pots and pans (Thanks Grandma Birthday $$).
Happy Hour with the hubby! Have a great night!
Cassidy looks all grown up. So cute. Your neighbors should be comfy on 63 acres.
ReplyDeleteShe looks just like her mommy! I know I'm jealous!
DeleteOh Cassidy ... you are a fashionista!!! I'm with your neighbors. If I liked crowds, I'd live in town. Nice they got so many acres!! Your cookies look delicious!! Ken's a lucky guy!
ReplyDeleteYes she is just such a cutie! Exactly, we're 7 miles out of our little town. Thanks Nancy..Ken loved these cookies and so easy. Trying to keep him healthy with the low carb.
DeleteGlad to see you're back to more reasonable weather.
ReplyDeletePS Send some our way.
Be Safe and Enjoy!
It's about time.
Funny bumping into your neighbours in Walmart. :)
ReplyDeleteYour baking always looks so good, you never let the treat barrel run empty. You're a keeper!! haha
Cassidy is adorable!
Yes it's a small world for sure. Thank you, but your baking (those cupcakes) look awesome! She is thank you!
DeleteCassidy is a little cutie. The glasses are great.
ReplyDeleteSounds like you have been keeping busy as always. The chalkboard paint on the refrigerator is a neat idea. Great fire, a great sunset, a great neighbor to share it with sounds like the perfect way to spend the end of the day. Miss you guys. Take care and stay safe.
Cassidy is just as cute as her mommy :) Yes we have the best neighbors. We miss you too, not sure when or if we'll head that way this year....
