We will be packing up today and heading home after a very full and busy week. After hitting us Thursday night with almost everything she had, Mother Nature must have been feeling a touch regretful and has delivered two pleasant, cool days. Perhaps a smidgen windy, but I am not complaining, you understand.
In the last two days, I did a book-signing at the Hampton Library; we sampled the local brew pub and ran into old friends of my sisters; had an incredible supper Friday night of meat loaf cooked in cast iron, sweet corn, squash, salad, etc; Ken and Harriet judged BBQ in Mason City yesterday while we did lunch with Uncle Sam and Aunt Carol and family; saw the fabulously restored Park Inn Hotel; Harriet and I hiked around the lake (it was at least 25 miles, plus we had to swim part of it); and enjoyed another great meal.
My plan for breakfast this morning is to finish up every thing in the fridge: should be interesting. I am trying to produce a list of everything we forgot or need to replace. I am also working on a design for some kind of charger caddy, so that we can 1) find them, 2) use them without untangling them, and 3) know at a glance whether we have all of them. It ain't easy being pioneers in this day and age.
