Whew!
Usually I pen this blog thing in the morning -- first thing, right along with a cup of coffee. But today I jumped in after stopping by a stone/rock/gravel/concrete plant and loaded my little trailer up with "3/4 of a yard" of gravel and sand, so I could gravel up the walkway towards the front of the office. I hopped on the computer and looked for urgent emails, sped through the 30-something emails, then went outside to hoe up weeds, dig a trench for the border, and then started scooping sand over the path and then gravel on top. Took me 'til a little past noon to finish.
Kelly returned just before noon from her trip to Quincy, IL to interview the band Skillet for our next flip-cover story (along with Pillar). She got to spend some good time with the band and all went well until just about 30 minutes prior to the band's set time. A storm raged and cancelled the band's set. So Kelly was able to jet out of there and actually get some sleep before boarding a 6:30am flight back from St Louis to Austin (via Houston). I wonder what the boarding procedures are like after the scare in England recently.
My parents safely arrived back in Florida after visiting us and dropping our oldest daughter back home after a 2.5 week stay with her grandparents. I know she had a blast there.
Lord willing, I'll get my blog typed up early in the morning tomorrow.
:?)
Went all the way to my home town to interview Skillet. Sweet.
