Forty-Niners

Today is our 49th wedding anniversary.

Dick had an appointment (dental) at 10 a.m.

We were expecting delivery of the new desk since it didn't come yesterday. I finally called to see when the delivery would happen, and it will be coming Saturday morning. I gave the driver good directions, but he kept asking me what he would see around where our access road is. I explained and explained, and then he said "I have to know because I don't see very well." Now I'm wondering who's driving the truck!

So the bad news is that the desk isn't coming today, but the good news is that we don't have to wait around - we can do whatever we want.

Bill reports that Jan, Kim and the boys have made it to California, with stops along the way to see the Painted Desert, Petrified Forest, etc. We plan to go to Houghton Lake on Saturday to help Bill with the house closing, and just to touch base with him.

First we took our old red trailer to Kelley's Custom Trailers. He said he might be able to use some of the parts and some of our lumber to lower the cost of the new trailer. He estimates he might be finished by Tuesday.

We went out on the Peninsula again to finalize the Old Mission Historical Tour. It was a blast - we did find a couple of minor mistakes - but generally speaking, it's a done deal. Dick placed the ammo can at around 4:30. It was a cloudy, windy, cool day but very pleasant, and I think we accomplished a lot, geocaching-wise.


Since it is a special day, we went to LaSenorita for an early dinner - we were both famished.

At home, Dick did the final edit and submitted the Historical Tour to Randy. Because of the nature of the Tour, the directions and explanations are quite lengthy, and folks will have to print out the five pages to take with them on the search. It won't fit in a Palm. If they have a printout and follow the directions carefully, they should have a ball with this.

With the countertops coming in the morning, we're mentally brainstorming what needs to be done in the kitchen before they arrive. I moved some things to the table, and began cleaning out under the sink, but then I hit the wall and went to bed. Tomorrow should be exciting!
