Lake Dunmore

So I noticed Craig was getting bored in the house and I had asked him if he would like to or wants to go anywhere today?  His answer was that he wanted to go to Lake Dunmore.  I knew he was bored and now that I have my license back we could go places again.  We asked our neighbor Ann if she wanted to go there but she was waiting for her daughter and couldn't leave.  I guess they only had one set of keys.

We weren't sure what it was going to be like at Lake Dunmore so we just got in the car and drove off.  It was a nice 30 minute drive to the lake, which had a small beach.  We had to pay $4.00 each to get into the beach.  I suppose its not so bad if we were to stay all day but since it was 3pm it didn't give us much time there but we paid to get into the beach anyway.  We ended up staying there for about an hour and a half by that time it was 4.30pm and we needed to get back before everybody leaves at one time which means it would be rush hour.

We got back at home and Ann was outside.  We told her how it was and she told her that the best time to go was during the week.  Now come to think of it, yes the beach was pretty packed since it was Father's Day and the kids are spending time with their dads.    So next time we go there Ann will be coming with us.

A day out

Today, we had to go to Royalton Recycling to drop off our old Theater Centre that we didn't need.  The garbage guy wouldn't take it.  I learned that they do alot of recycling here since we moved here in this apartment in December.

That reminds me, I did pass my road test, which I had taken on the 16th and it was great to get my license back. 

Afterwards we had gone into Barre which Craig wanted to check out.  I wasn't in the mood to drive an hour and a half from home.  I was a little tired and he did surprise me when he got me to drive on the highway.  I didn't know we were going to Barre until we got onto the highway.  I was a little upset as I thought we were going home after Royalton Recycling.  When we got to the house we just sat there for about 10 minutes on the outside.  We never did go in.  Me personally I thought it was a waste of time to go all the way to just sit in the car and looked at outside of the house.  After we left and he surprised me again that we were going to Walmart.  Out of all the places I despise we were going to Walmart.  I cannot stand shopping in there.  We ended up buying a planting pot, some soil (since we bought a tomato plant at the farmer's market), and an Air Conditioner.  Our own air conditioner didn't fit into the window so we had to get a smaller one.

When we got home, I had to install the air conditioner into the window making sure there aren't any holes that leads outside so that the wasps or any insects come into the apartment.    After I installed that, I transferred our tomato plant into the bigger pot.

It was a good busy day.
