Mellow

Maryanne and I spent a rather slow-paced and relaxing weekend in Door County. I helped Mom with a project or two, but other than that, there weren't many tasks to complete. This means that the next time I'm up there will be more, including moving some trees. By that time, though, the weather should be cooler and more hospitable to physical labor.

We were able to do some shopping, and we found some nice tin signs for our kitchen at an antique shop. We were also able to spend some time with Adam and Sammie, and we rented Napoleon Dynamite, which turned out to be a bizarre but amusing movie.

Labor Day weekend also usually marks Sevastopol class tournaments, so I saw some old schoolmates. We ate out a lot, but Maryanne and I paid less than $20 ourselves the whole weekend.

Yesterday I tried helping Adam set up some new computers at Cherry Hills. The computers themselves weren't too much of an issue. However, we did meet a roadblock when trying to install a second receipt printer on one of the computers. I suspect it's a configuration issue with the printer itself. Adam planned on contacting Epson support himself to get it resolved.

We got on the road much later than we wanted to yesterday, but we were still home by seven. Daisy was very happy to see us, and we were glad to be home.
