This morning Liz had a doctor’s appointment so I watched Luke until Madeline arrived. I left the house and drove to Home Depot in Winchester, then on to Monteagle. I made calls and went to the lumber yard to buy my lumber packages. That was pretty painful, but necessary. I had a lunch meeting with Sam, the HVAC man, and that went well. This afternoon I went to the job site and moved some logs out of the way, then drove the tractor down the street a little ways to help a guy who works at the Goat Market spread some gravel on his driveway. We talked for a while afterwards. I came back to the cottage and chatted with my parents for a bit, then we had dinner on the back deck. I will do some reading shortly, then hopefully go to bed at a reasonable time.
