Tuesday, This and That

Yes, that is us, together watching the worker guy TV. It is finally coming to an end, and mum says HURRAY!
Monday they put down one layer of black stuff, which left a bit of a lip to drive through, but mum still parked off on the side street so she didn't have to get out early when they started working. That way she got a bit of a walk in every morning.
Today on Tuesday the put down another layer and finished off the end of our driveway. So mum could bring the metal monster into its own room again for the first time in over a week. Plus she says she can finally get the metal monster all washed and cleaned up again.
They still have to finished up the dirt on the edge of the road, smooth it out some and put grass seed in it. But all of the big, noisy and smelly work should be all gone.

Mum came home after day hunting and then left again. She went out to eat on a day hunting night no less. We smelled crab on her breath and she didn't bring us any! Said it was a farewell dinner for one of the library board members who is retiring and leaving the area. She said she got to try the restaurant at the new hotel in town. Mum said it was OK, but not outstanding. Figured they need to support the local businesses though.
