Went out shopping today for Christmas stuff. Got a few things, still much to be found. Assisted Mo with her decorations outside and took Riley out for her constitutional. Solidified a few more details for the trip south, and began to look for a “netbook” computer, to allow me to communicate while I am there.
Met a guy today at Chapters who was riding a BMW 800 M/C. Asked him all kinds of questions, and he advised that he was “more than happy” with the bike as a “get around” cycle. Beee-utiful machine!
Great weather the last few days, nice if it would last into the New Year, but not likely.
Got the roof done (cedar)…..and the outside work finished prior to snowfall. Looking forward to the 2009 “Chili Cookoff” at the Byron Legion this month. Entering a crock of chili (actually Mo is) for the first time. See what happens. Should be fun.
Went over to Michigan shopping last weekend….
Port Huron, then Shelbyville, and finally Birch Run. had a nice night over, and came back with a bunch of stuff for Christmas. Had to pay sales tax at the Canadian border for the first time in a long while….
Hard to fathom the differences between Canada and the U.S. just a couple hours away….language differences, food, lifestyles….
Stopped at “Tonys” restaurant in Birch Run. All I can say is….”ridiculous!”
Check out the “you tube” vids on the place. 😉
