adventures today! I went to office briefly to manage a few details for next week, when most of my staff is out - one for surgery, one for vacation, one for a personal day....then DH and I went to try a new adventure and had breakfast at the Old Sawmill. It was nice enough but too polished to suit me - think I 'll go back to the Hole in the Wall. I prefer their "style" - not too polished but the food is good and the wait staff and cook well known to us.
We stopped off at Home Depot (I swear it is a daily event) and got the materials to create our closet interior so we could hang our clothes up. DH then dropped me off at a women's group for "new folks" and spent two hours with a group of ladies from various churches worshipping the Lord and working to establish small groups. I am game and will see how it goes. It could be a good leading from the Lord.
Then we headed over to Meeks Park for the Butternut Creek Art Festival. The artisan tents were clustered under the trees next to Butternut Creek. It was shady and had a slight breeze, but it was still hot. It was fun to see all their creations and the way their work was appreciated - from quilts to woodwork and everything in between. A glass of fresh lemonade and lots of photos later, we headed home. I was able to take a nap....a real luxury.
We decided to check out Blue Ridge for dinner and ate at the Blue Jeans Pizza and Pasta Company. Dinner was good and the trip refreshing because we got to see farms and other rural communities on the way. On the way home, the mists were rising around the mountains which certainly belies their "smokey" designation. The moon is nearly full and the light was clear.
Came home and finally moved our bed into our new bedroom. First night to sleep there. Have the bedside tables in, but not the dresser yet. We will have to replace the mirror that goes with the dresser as it broke in transit. Still, we are making progress.
Exploring our new area is fun. These little excursions are exciting. There are many more adventures ahead for us, so stay tuned......
Be Blessed,
Kim
