Cooperstown & why are there so many troopers???

 A couple sundays ago we decided to take a drive & headed out towards Cooperstown.  We had done it last summer & had found the neatest antique store so I wanted to go back.
See that tractor .........we got stuck behind him on a narrow country road for about a mile!  No problem we weren't in a hurry!
 Also found out there's no going back!  We ended up in Cooperstown & did not find the antique store......boohoo!
 The lake here is the most beautiful shade of blue/green
 We couldn't figure why there was a state trooper on every corner, tour buses, school buses & people every where!
 Duh!  It was Baseball Hall of Fame induction day!
 By the time we found a place to park 5 blocks away it was pretty much over with so it wasn't too crowded to take a walk around.




 We wandered down to the lake



 Then we got back in the car to head towards Oneonta to get Brooks barbecue.
 There was no cell phone service or gps so of course we headed in the wrong direction.....story of our lives!  We even pick the opposite of what we think & that doesn't work either.  When we finally got service the gps sent us down this country road to what seemed like nowhere😕😕
 Where are we???
 Yes this looks better.....maybe?
 Aha finally.......home of the best barbecue around!  We got our food & ate at a picnic table outside because we had Molly.......it was perfect


Love Val

C of O ....Sun Room...Day Twenty Three-Twenty Five

This came in the mail today which made me realize I never posted the last couple days updates.  They really all rolled into one as Jim ended up leaving at noon on Weds...it started to snow & didn't work at all on Thurs.  Friday he finished things up by lunch time but had to spend the afternoon emptying my garage of all his tools.  We had our inspection on Monday which wasn't a problem.  It has been so sunny this week so far so it is so nice to sit in there & enjoy the view!  Yes Molly hangs out in her a lot.....I have nose prints to prove she looks out of all the windows!

Sewing, weaving & emptying the waterbed

 Monday morning began bright & early as we needed to finish emptying our bedroom.  Mark was dropping LiLi off before 8:00am as she does not have school this week.  We needed to drain the waterbed before we could take it apart.  As usual we were having no luck getting the water to siphon out & even resorted to having LiLi (all 35lbs of her) sitting on it with us!!  It probably took over an hour & who knows how many tries before it worked.  Got the mattress out & discovered the decking was falling apart.....good thing we decided to do this project,,,,I was able to find a local place so we can just replace it & to be safe I also got a new safety liner & heater.  I don't want to be doing this again for a while!  While Popster worked on replacing the baseboard & window trim in those two rooms LiLi & I started working on this doll kit she had gotten for her birthday.  All the pieces needed to be sewn togeth...
