Wednesday, Oct. 6, 2010 – Shopping Day

For a national forest area, town was pretty close, less than 10 miles away, and I managed to get everything I needed, stopping at Safeway for groceries, Olson Grain for horse treats, and True Value for glue and a kind of shelf liner that was somewhat padded, and (would you believe!) brandy snifters to replace one Hubby had broken a few days before. I’ve never seen a True Value with so much cool household stuff, lots of stemware and kitchen items. I was also able to buy a fan, which we needed last week but all the big chain stores like Wal-mart and Home Depot had “de-stocked” because the seasons changed. Nevermind that there was a heat wave going on, with temps in Phoenix over 100 degrees! Why they don’t let managers have a little discretion is beyond me. Anyway, I picked one up anyway, figuring as we head south again we might need it, and I’d rather have it than try to find one even later on in the year. Got back late in the afternoon, spent some time getting ready for our departure tomorrow, then settled down for the night.
