2016: Slow day. Raining in the morning so Ashley took uber home. I had stir fry ready and waiting when she arrived.
2017: Grabbed our gear and loaded it into the car, then headed west to the Grand C anyon. Hiked along Rim Trail and caught the sunset. No luck at the lodge (ap parently half of Asia is here for the holiday season) and on to Williams. No hotel but pizza for supper was delicious, along Route 66. In to Flagstaff, n o luck at any hotels so curled up in sleeping bags in the car in Walmart par king lot.
2018: Slept in late, made coffee and relaxed at home, enjoying the snowy yard outthe windows. Headed to the Tuning Fork Cafe for more coffee and breakfast -delicious! Chatted for a bit (think we're both ready to try having kids)and then headed to the library and then the hardware store. They don't havethe same kind of paint at True Value as Ace so we went into Durango forpaint, then cruised up toward Purgatory to see the views. Not as much snowup there but we did get to see some sleighs going across the field. To thesauna in town - my first visit in months! Grabbed some food at Animas thenheaded home for the evening. Watched a couple of traveldocumentaries/movies before heading toward bed.
2019: Woke feeling pretty good. Tasty breakfast and then I did a bit of shovelingand moved the cars out of the way for the snow guys to work on thedriveway. They did a great job! Philip and Stephanie came to visit for abit and meet Lily. They brought some flowers, muffins, and diapers. Greatvisit! I made meatloaf for supper, with potatoes and asparagus as sides -really tasty! Generally a nice day at home.
2020: Work day. Took care of a few things about the store. Ordered all thematerials from Home Depot for the sauna, hidden door in the basement,flooring for the master bedroom, gallery wall and electrical outlets in thestore - to be delivered to save me a bunch of trips. Picked up the trailerfrom Kristen's new house and then the deep freeze from WalMart on the wayhome. Got that inside the basement and unpacked but nothing further. Readfor a bit before bed.
2021: Work day, wrapping up the end of the year (and sign day). Ashley and Lilyare in Santa Fe and enjoying their visit. Good thing they went yesterday,the roads are a lot worse today from the snow. Late day, getting a bigchunk of inventory done - stayed late to work on that.
2022: Loaded up the hitch trailer with snow tires for the car. Ashley drove toNapa to get the tires switched out and had coffee while waiting. Lily and Ihad breakfast and hung out for the morning. Ashley shoveled a bit when shegot home - clearing the front porch. I headed to the store for the day andgot some errands done. Home in the evening and Ashley made pizza withLily's help. Read for a bit before bed.
