While Alex took his morning nap, I started my day off with a surprise for Carlo. I laid some really heavy 18" pavers along the deck in what was attempt to create some additional curb appeal. Still a work in progress, I am happy with the way step one turned out.
After lunch, Jackie, Alex and I went to the Oschner Park and Zoo in Baraboo. Alex visited with a swan, two white tail deer, two llamas, a timber wolf, a pot bellied pig and a couple of goats. After feeding the goat some goat food, Alex decided to share his own snacks with the goats. He was so proud of himself for sharing!
We drove around for a couple of hours, taking in the sights, while Alex napped before dinner. We ate at the Log Cabin, near the zoo. We thought this was the end of our day until we went to the lot to find the car had a flat tire!
Alex's reaction could be a good indicator of our surprise that all the places we called for repair were closed! So after several phone calls to several places, the owner offered that the cook change the tire. Luckily, he can do more than make a good slab of ribs or grilled cheese sandwich. Once we were on the road, we hit Wal-Mart, just before the tire center was closing and bought a new tire.
We made it safely back to O'Wich - my ever so nice neighbors were both upset I didn't call on them for help. It's nice to know they're there - for next time!!!
