Breakfast Pizza
Made green eggs (spinach) & hot dogs for the dogs. They loved it. It looked gross.

Then took them for a walk at the park. Had to get a drink at latte stand for hubby. It was a long wait. 3 cars in line. Also had to wait for train at RR crossing. I had a bad tummy on the way to the park, so had to hurry & go potty at the park office.
Walk at the Shooter's Road. Was very quiet. Deadly calm.
Then came home and hubby went to shop to work. I did laundry, dishes, fed fish, filled deer food.
Buddy was sleeping on his back again.

Vacuumed house.
Maggie took a nap on the couch with her pillow.

Dave P came to work on the deck. Hubby came home at 5PM;
I took another pic of the baby birds. One of them was sticking his head out of the nest.

At 8PM there was a big wind storm. No rain, tho. Never seen trees sway like that. In a circle. Broke some trees in the woods, dropped lots of pine needles & branches, thankfully we did not lose power. On the news they said 60 mph winds.
We went to bed at 10:00.
SUNDAY
8-3-2014
Got up REALLY EARLY and warmed up breakfast pizza for hubby. Made cheese eggs for dogs. We sat on the front deck for a while, then went outside with Bud & Maggie to clean up the yard. Flag blew away, fire-pit chairs fell over, lots of branches in driveway. Hubby put up the bird house in the circle driveway again.
Had to wait for train at RR crossing, lots of empty coal cars. Then noticed that the Veteran's Hall sign had blown down from the wind.
We took dogs for walk in park. Picked up a latte for hubby in town. New girl, Danielle was there.
Came home and looked for a new anchor for the boat.
Took Lil Bit with us to the boat. We stopped at Lil Town Market to get drinks, lunch for hubby, and ice. Hubby talked to the owner for a while. I had parked in front of the store, but found the overwhelming stench of cigarette smoke too much so we moved the FMF over to the Frontier site. Hubby came out of the store and we drove down to Bayview. Unloaded all our stuff, then walked Lil Bit so he could potty. We motored out and over to Buttonhook Bay. Lloyd and Paula were there in Kruzer, went over to talk to them but they were out fishing and Rachel, Nick's wife was there. She said they sold their boat.
At Buttonhook Bay, the Fish & Game had re-done the boat docks and bridge to the shore. It is much better now.
Docks at Buttonhook
Talked to a nice couple that we had met the first year out - Andy & Jeannie. They had a Parson's terrier named Turbo. He was cute but she hit him for doing absolutely nothing. I was livid.
Hubby had lunch.
We took a nap on the boat for about 1 hour.
I could not locate my bathing suit, but hubby went swimming for a while after we walked to Beaver Bay swim area and back.
Hubby "waves" to me
Talked to some nice Canadians and exchanged drinks with them; they had
frozen daquiris and I gave them a Johnny Appleseed hard cider.
After hubby was done swimming, we motored back to Bayview.
Lil Bit stood at the side, directing us where to go with the boat.

Unloaded everything into the FMF and drove home.
At home, the dogs were happy to see us. We gave them chicken from the fridge. Dave P came over at 7PM to pick up some tools.
We watched pay-per-view
The Grand Budapest Hotel. It was very good!
Went to bed later.
At 10:30, Dave & Vera R came and dropped off the Red Dually they had borrowed for the weekend. It was so late and I was in bed, so hubby went out. They talked for a while, then left.
Hubby came up to bed afterwards.
