Sharp's Travels

We picked up Grandma to take her for her 10:30 am doctor’s appointment. The doctor was running over an hour late so we didn’t get back to Grandma’s until after noon. Then we went to Wal-Mart to drop off prescriptions for Grandma and to pick up some groceries for her and ourselves. By the time we got home it was near 1:30 pm. After lunch Cheri finished cleaning the cupboards and I cleaned out the basement. It was too hot to be outside, but I wanted to get that job done. I was out of salt for the water softener so I made a trip to get salt and made a stop at Lowe’s to pick up a new flag pole mount. I think this is the forth one I have bought over the last five years. We sometimes get a strong wind which is enough to break the mount. I keep looking but not able to find a stronger one. I also made a stop at the Napa store to get a new fuel filter for the truck. I always like to have an extra one on hand because you never know when you are going to need it. After I got home we went over to Grandma’s to take care of her needs and played a game of dominos. We were getting ready to leave when Carol stopped in. She wanted to play Five Crown and said she couldn’t remember how to play. So Cheri and I stayed to play a game with her and Grandma. It started to rain before we got done playing. It was a very hard rain so I took the umbrella and went home to get the car and then back to pick up Cheri. So it was after 7:00 pm before we got done with supper. It did quit raining just before we went to bed. I bet we got over three inches of rain.
