It Be Saturday And We Have Nothing Going On! Until Dinner!

Estimated reading time: 2 minutes

We slept in late this morning, not getting vertical until AFTER 8:00 am!  Oh my!   I fixed coffee, and when Mary came into the breakfast room, I heard the coffee mumble to itself!

We piddled around the house most of the day.  I did some additional cleaning in the garage, and I can see the workbench, an amazing feat!   Mary whipped up a delicious lunch from boxes and bags in the fridge.  She is amazing that way!  While she made breakfast, I wandered outside and put the St. Patrick’s Day banner back up after the winds blew it down.

The banner will stay up this time!

After brunch, Mary and I marched out to the garage for a little more “straightening up” (read: moving stuff from one pile to another).  The grinder and drill press have officially been banished to the He Shed, which means we can now get in and out of the cars without auditioning for an obstacle course.

Lookin’ good!!

It was almost 3:00 pm when I suggested we take our glorious naked bodies outside and into the hot tub and soak before heading out to dinner.  The sun was blazing, and my poor little scalp is still sore from our hot-tubbing adventure a few days ago.

Thankfully, Mary came up with a solution (credit to Vicky): a hat for the hot tub.

WARNING: Ladies, do not stare for more than 15-20 minutes!

After soaking in the hot tub, we scrubbed up, put on some clothes since it was going to be in the 40s this evening, and headed to Huntington Beach.  We will meet Bill and Sandee Capps for dinner at 6:30 pm at Vittorio’s Italian Restaurant in Huntington Beach—proof that we can be civilized… right after being completely uncivilized.

We had a wonderful booth, and our favorite piano player entertained us this evening!
