Gorgeous day today weather wise! everything from rain to sunshine! Woke to the lake like glass...no wind and the reflection of the shore line beautiful. Right now at 9:35pm it is like glass again. It hit a whole whopping 60 today....poor guys back east are sweltering in heat from what snooky tells me when I call. I drive down the road every day at 4pm my time to talk with hubby. It's sure not the same as being together here but at least I get to talk with him! Aug is looking really really a long time away before I go back to Ashfield to be with snooky. So phone calls are better than nothing.
I have been searching for a cheap car and yesterday I found one. Went to look at it today and yup snooky, I bought it.
The trade off of what the rental car is costing vs buying a beater car...well the beater car won. As long as the drive train, engine, tire etc are good I really don't care what it looks like sooooo... my new "blue" car. She's a bit rough but runs great, 5 speed 1999 Ford Escort. One questionable ty-rod end and a slight oil leak from the front seal....Hey whadda want for $1000 bucks! Gotta set of brand new spiked snowy's for it to. Seems to run real good, clutch is good in it! Yup that's our motor home in the back ground.
Sorry it's blurry but in a hurry to get inside and do this
Now for some nicer pictures...went riding around yesterday.
Alaskan Primroses
The Nikiski indoor swimming pool
The lake this morning...beautiful reflection...I wasn't up for the misty fog on it at 4 a.m. though as I stayed up past 1 a.m. reading!! Told sister-in-law next time wake me up!!
The news on the land...I did stop at the builders today...wow..thought I was confused before on a floor plan, they had more than what they posted on the internet sooo...re-thinking my custom design an looking a modifications of one of their standard designs as it would be less expensive.
Then the surveyor phoned to say he would be out this week to find the water front property pins...well wouldn't ya know...just what I suspected...he informs me that in just a quick look at the road pins that the neighbors green house, white tent car port and possibly part of these and their garage is over the property line on our property...he's just not sure by how much until he shoots the lines. Crapweasel....guess we'll just see what transpires as to how much is over the line and what not.
It's going on 10:30 p.m. and the sleepy heads have gone off to bed. Seeing I'm sleeping upstairs over their room I don't want to be heading up too late. So until another day when I get out touring around again for more pictures that's it for tonight folks.
Tomorrow I head back to that evil DMV to register the car, return the rental car and might just have ta take a short trip some where to see how the car goes on gas mileage!! Catch you all later.
