When we got to his house we help him picked the old cabinets he could use in the garage someone was coming to get the ones he didn't. I took a book case and large cabinet to use in my garage. Now we have to clean our garage. More work.


Saturday Jillian and me my 10 year old granddaughter left for the Art Show in Edina .It was raining .I thought we could go to the General Store and hope the rain stops.The store has a little of every thing.





We left still raining when we left. Stop at the art store I needed some chalk. I was in a candy store. Did the shopping off to the art show still raining.
