Warm and sunny this morning but the winds picked up this afternoon and blew some clouds in. Yesterday afternoon we drove over to Galax to go to Wal-Mart for Frances to pick up some things at dinner at The Twisted Fork. Yummy Italian food.

Today we celebrated my actual birthday with chips and birthday cake.  Al put my new generator together as in putting on the wheels and getting everything hooked up. After adding the oil and enough gas to start it fired right up with the electric starter. They headed back to Winston awhile ago. Windy, cloudy, and warm today.

46 degrees, foggy, and dripping when we went out this morning. I tidied up the kitchen and changed the bed linens while waiting on Frances and Al to arrive.

Over the years they have made friends with a couple who produce very nice handmade furniture. They have several small tables in their living room. I was ready to replace the three end tables in the den that belonged to Bob’s mom with something new. I ordered three tables as a birthday present to myself. Al and Frances picked them up last weekend in Greensboro where they always attend the holiday craft show to bring up this weekend. I am really happy with them.

We ate a quick lunch then went into town to run a couple of errands and check out the craft show at the local fair grounds. The rain and fog continue to hang around this afternoon.
