We had a big adventure this morning. Yesterday his electric shaver broke and so we
had to get up very early this morning, before sun up if you can believe that,
and went to Walmart to get him a new shaver.
We were supposed to go in and get out quickly, but he stood there for a
long time comparing the shavers. I guess
men do those kinds of things…………it is a BIG decision to make.
So we got the shaver and the mist had lifted off the bridge
and we could see to get home. When we
left for the Archives, the sun was up and shining wonderfully on the trees in
the front yard and I took a couple of really nice pictures of the event.
6 o’clock Charlie came by this morning but he was trapped
between two not too fast moving cars and we could actually see him. I bet he was steamed that he could not tear
up the road the way he usually does.
At the archives today I finished off the January 1808 court
records for the Court of Common Pleas and have started on the April term papers
that seem to be orphaned in the box. The
records of this particular county are in disarray and hard to follow. I have to write up how I do it and get it
done as quickly as I do so that if anyone comes in they can follow along and
help with the flattening out and writing up ready for digitizing. We cannot humidify any more records this week
due to the write up and the cataloging of the April term that Jeff humidified
last week.
Bill went to the YMCA and I went over to K-mart. That surely is a sorry little store. There is insufficient staff and the
merchandise is every which way and poorly displayed. It is amazing that they are still in
business. But then, WalMart is up on the
hill along with all the rest of the stores and so K-Mart has the downtown all
to itself and it does fill a need I suppose.
We went to Line Dance class tonight. This is our last class here in Augusta but we
intend to continue with the line dance group in the Community Center. They announced that it was our last night and
they had cake etc. for both that and the birthdays for this month. Many people came up to us and said that they
will miss us and that they were glad that we came and were a part of them. We are glad that we went to class with them
as well. The new line dance class at the
high School begins tomorrow night and I would love to go but we have to
assemble our stuff so that it is not left to the last minute.
Thursday night is the
last of this blog. I will have another
blog started but it will be accessed only by invitation. It has been a fun thing to do the blog – a way
to jell out what happened or interested me for the day.
