October 11th & 12th

Our "first" boat!!!  Today we went to several yard sales just because I needed a diversion
from B-B-Q!!  Lo and behold we found this awesome paddle boat.  Great price plus the sellers offered to deliver it to our house since we really had no way to transport it.  It seats 4!

After a "hard day" of yard sales, we decided to have lunch at the Belmont Soda Fountain.  The ice cream special of the day was an orange/pineapple milkshake--awesome!!!

On Sunday, we met our dear, long time friend Pam Williams at Sammy's in downtown Belmont for lunch.  It's one of the very few restaurants open here on Sunday.  We then brought Pam out to see our home.  She lives in Anderson, SC, about 2 hours south from us which is great for get togethers.

This is our 2nd, 1,000 piece puzzle finally finished.  Sounds crazy, but these have been a great way to pass the time in the evening in our 1 bdrm apt.  Puzzles done and time to move!!!

As a matter of fact, we have a move-in date!!!  We'll be spending our first night in our new home on Monday, October 20th.  Lilly will be staying at Cats Cradle again until October 28th.  The movers arrive on Tuesday, October 21st.  We then leave for a wedding in Maryland on October 23rd.  Talk about busy!!!  We will get settled when we return as the girls and their families arrive for Thanksgiving!!!
