Garden Ridge

The day started out like any other. We had some coffee. Ate some pancakes. Played outside with the dogs. Then we all went to Lexington. After lunch at a Chinese Buffet on Richmond Road we went to Hamburg Pavilion to check out some stores. I needed to get a cable at Best Buy and the ladies wanted to see Garden Ridge and Petsmart. Shopping actually can be fun.


Entering Petsmart. The guy in the tie was looking at me funny. I don't think that is his wife.

They had free cats for $90. In the parking lot of Best Buy.


Cathryn trying to sell folding canopy chairs.

More shopping fun.

Cathryn trying on the clothes. Laura was doing the same thing. Who's Laura? We don't know, but she was really nice and was having as much fun as we were.

Lisa looking for something. Cathryn, its too small.

Cathryn attempting to shoplift a sweater. Her big sister made her put it back. Barbara waited for us in the rocking chairs.

Look closely and you'll see the display for the Foam Swords that got me and Cathryn in trouble.

This is a real store in Lexington. Catchy!

Fun with the dogs.

Cathryn is here

Cathryn got in around 1:30 this afternoon. Her and Lisa and Barbara went over to the Kentucky Horse Park for some sort of horse festivities. I didn't go.

Rainy Day

It rained this morning and early afternoon.Kind of hard at times. We found a leak in the roof. It's around the skylight in the kitchen. The roof people were supposed to have fixed the caulking around the skylights before we moved in. We'll call on Monday and have them come fix it. Hopefully it won't rain a lot over the weekend.




We had BBQ for dinner. There is always enough for guests.

Fence Guy

The estimator from Interstate Fence Supply came to measure for the girl's yard. It's going to be from the back door over to the garage with a 16' drive gate. Then from the back of the garage down to just past the pool then down the side to the mow line in the front. It will then go across the front to 108" from the driveway. Can you guess where I got 108" from?

Fence guy's truck and Paris demonstrating why we need a chain link fence. Those big brown things are cows.
Paris in the cow pasture. She runs under that fence like it isn' t there. This from the dog that is terrified when you put on a jacket.

Coming back under the fence. We had a bird at the feeder. First one we've seen. I think it's a female robin.

Satin was late coming with me to install the motion sensor for the driveway alarm.


Walking down the driveway is always fun. Such interesting smells.

The driveway alarm sensor. We can never hear when someone comes up the driveway. Even the big UPS truck and the POD truck crept up on us. The receiver is inside the window of the living room.

Playing on the walk back up.
