Sharp's Travels

Today we got back into our usual routine, starting with our morning walk. It was a very nice day with a high of 71 degrees. I had planned to go for a motorcycle ride with Bud today. When I checked to see about a ride he said he was in the middle of a project changing water pipes and hot water heater. So this am we went to check on Ken & Eileen. We did a few things to help them out. After lunch Cheri and I took a short motorcycle ride as it was a beautiful day. We made a stop at Radio Shack to get a new battery for Ken & Eileen’s cordless phone. I had looked on line and they were only $8.00 which was a little high but thought I would pick one up. Well when we got there they wanted $17.00 for one. That is over a 100% mark up. We then went to Home Depot and Big Lots as I am still looking for a flag mount like the old one so I wouldn’t have to drill new holes, no luck so I guess I will use the one I bought at Lowe’s and drill new holes. While we were in Big Lots I found a new cordless phone for $17.00, so I bought it for Ken & Eileen. Sure beats buying a battery for the old one when you can a new phone for the same price. Early evening we went down to Ken & Eileen’s to drop off the phone and help Ken get ready for bed. Then it was up to Paul & Bev’s for dominos, the girls won both games.
