She is on the Road Again



Actually went to bed rather early last night. Yes it was 10:00 pm when we both decided to call it a night. Sherri had to get up early to prepare to leave for Louisiana. She will be working there this week.


We made our coffee and set down to visit and plan the driveway and barn location on the new land. I know you will be glad when we have that all done and I can talk about something else. But for now we have to decide where it is all going. I have to meet the electric company out there this week and set the pole and all that is contingent on the driveway placement and the barn. This is the last month before I retire and I have so much to get done. I would not mind if I could do it on the phone but I have to be out there to do each thing and that requires an hour and one half drive out and back!


I am almost tempted to stay a couple of weeks at the State Park and get this all done when I am not working. What it cost to drive out there and back would be what it cost me to stay there. I will have to give that some thought.


OK Sherri got off and I sat down and started thinking about what I could post today besides the lot prep...which everyone is tired of hearing about. I thought I would display my new grill I bought the other day while shopping with Sherri. I need not shop with her too much because I end up finding things I think I need and don't....with the exception of this grill I found.


I want to do some river exploration while on the road and I thought this would be just the thing to have. You can put your charcoal in it and your cold drinks and your hot dogs and viola you have all you need for a cookout on the river bank when your ready. It is light weight and will fit in the boat with out taking up too much room.


So here are some pictures of my find. I guess that will about do it for today. Not much going on here...so I will check out and pop back in....


Somewhere in Time














Cold storage for drinks and hot dogs burgers or whatever you might want to grill out.



Light weight and has a carrying strap for hiking ...not bad

We never tire of hearing about your activities Joe. Nice to know someone is working while all I am doing is playing here on the farm.

Ok, where did you buy this nifty little cooler/grill combo and how much did it cost. Inquiring minds want to know......

Say Joe that thing looks neat. Small compact and cover two needs. I guess when you and Sheri going rafting that gadget will fit nicely in your rubber boat. Enjoy your posts
