City trip

I was awake at 7, S alarm went off at 7:30 for his 8 am dental cleaning appointment. He got up, loaded trash and was off. I got up made a cappuccino and got to writing the wine box tutorial. He had started a sprinkler when he left that I moved to next spot to keep his watering mission going.

He was back around 10:30 with 2 blue bottles for the tree too. I cooked us up a brunch before we loaded up at noon and off to the city. First stop was High Hog to pick up the posts needed to make the running with the bulls panels work. Picking up oil change kit for the ranger was next then we were off to peruse Rona and then Home Depot for wood for a staging wall. I did run in and grab an iced coffee for us at  a Tim's to keep us going.

Home depot gave us many more options and in the end we went with 8" wide pine boards. After carefully going thru the pile and limpy Sheldon finding a wood cart we got thru the till only to be charged the $3+ more per board price. This had me going back to the wood guys, getting a not to price change then getting customer service to correct the bill. It did save me $55!! but it did make us late for The Lion King movie at 3:55 we were aiming for. Poor S has been wanting to see it since he saw the preview. The rush hour traffic did not even help us make it after the credits may have been running so it was off to Costco.

no sudden stops now

Here we managed to find a cartful as usual. Back at the truck we sorted and loaded in the cooler and backseat then off to have a pre birthday supper. Prince choose a steak at cattle Barons... and not just a little steak but the ole 20 oz cowboy steak!! And he finished it without a hitch!

I had a 6 oz steak neptune

We then headed for home with a full belly. Luckily we had all our purchases inside as we hit rain on the way home with some funny clouds and lots of rainbows. We made a detour to drop off rodeo passes a guys and had a brief visit arriving at the ranch at 7:30.

See the pot of gold is right under the house??

Time to unload our days scores and Tyler stopped to pick up passes for his crew helping us at running with the bulls. We sat for awhile on the deck after I gave supplements but the wind was brisk, if only it would have rained here.

I had finished season 2 of The Good Fight the other night and need a new show. I started Covert Affairs but not sure how I feel about it.
