We ended up having a very productive day that started with fogging, staining all the screen trim and removing the red capsule wood burner that we called a fireplace.


We put the fireplace at the edge of the road with a “FREE” sign on it and within 15 minutes our neighbor’s “JUNK-DAR” was honing in on it. Up he pulls with his 4-wheeler and trailer in tow just as I was setting out the fireplace tools to go with it. It was like Christmas morning and he was beside himself to be the proud owner of a re-purposed piece of crap that we would have had to pay to unload at the dump! Carlo helped him since it took two of us to get it out of the cabin and he didn’t want this old guy to get hurt while he was on our property! Then the neighbor complained that one of the tools was broken – Seriously? Screw it back on, the flipping thing was FREE!


Carlo set up a “gutter joke” for when the guys return…I hope they realize it is a joke!

This set up actually did a great job diverting water from the deck during the rain storm! Tomorrow we have a mess to clean – old base and walls and plan to take it home. Wonder how many minutes it will be in the alley before a “JUNK-DAR” activates!

The living room looks huge with the corner cleared out and now another chore has been bumped up on the never ending TO-DO List! Stoning the wall!




We tried a new restaurant for dinner – Club 23. It was recommended to us several years ago but we never found it because we went the wrong way and then after 45 minutes we gave up. We found it today barely 20 minutes from O’Wich and right down 23 of The Cove. Who knew?! It was good and another place has been added to our keeper list! A couple of naps while watching TV and the night was officially over!
