Fun morning at the zoo.

Posted on by David Maxwell

This morning after breakfast we drove up to the Nashville Zoo to meet my parents. We walked all over and saw lots of animals, plus a train and zipline. Luke particularly enjoyed watching people on the zipline. After leaving we drove home for lunch, then went to the farmers market, which was moved to the afternoon due to a 5k race happening in the morning. Unfortunately less than half the vendors were there and those present had pretty limited stock. We still managed to get a few things though. Liz and Luke weeded around the yard this afternoon, then Luke and I built a Lego tower. Dinner was nice and now Luke is in bed.

Finally insulated.

This morning I got to the job site about 7:40 and got to work. I was feeling pretty motivated and made good progress. A pretty scene at Laurel Lake on the drive in also had me feeling nice. It took until mid-afternoon, but I got all of the wall and vaulted ceiling insulation finished. That was a good feeling. After showering back at the cottage I went to the Goat Market to chat with Eric for a bit. Then I packed up, chatted with Debbie next door, and drove home. I arrived just as Luke was finishing dinner. It was good to see him for a bit.

More insulation.

This morning I got up early and played with Luke. When he went to school I drove up to the Mountain. After messing around the cottage for a little bit I went to the job site and installed insulation in the walls. I made great progress and should finish up tomorrow. Tonight I will find a fun book to read.

More insulation.

This morning I got to the job site, worked a couple of hours, then went to get gas for the lawn mower before eating breakfast at the cottage. I installed insulation until nearly two. The plumbers were there as well. Back at the cottage I showered, then drove home via Bell Buckle. Luke and I played until dinner time and bow he is getting a bath. I will read some until Liz comes to bed.

Insulation begins.

I got to the job site around eight this morning and started installing the vents for insulation on the rafters. Mid-morning the insulation itself was delivered. I worked until a bit after five, then returned to the cottage. My dad was there and we ate dinner and chatted for a while. I have been reading a book on my phone since then.
