Road trip before work

July 18 – Since we didn’t have to be at work until 4 today we decided to make a quick trip to Sturbridge, MA to get a park stamp at Old Sturbridge Village.  We stopped at Yankee Spirit for some of my Roscato wine while we were there.  We got an iced coffee at McDonald’s for the ride home and took the small country roads.  It was a nice ride back.  It’s only about 30 minutes away.

I did a load of laundry and hung a clothes line out back.  After lunch I put Molly out in her hut and I sat out and read.  I had moved my hummingbird feeder so I was sitting about 6 feet from it and waited patiently for the hummers to settle in.  I did get a couple of photos but as soon as they hear the click of the camera they are off.

While I was out with Molly and talking on the phone with Karen our neighbor arrived and was extremely angry that we were parking in his space.  We were told by our boss to park there since he would be gone all week.  He was just plain irrational and rude when all he had to do was give Bill 5 minutes to move the car.  He stormed up to the office once he turned his AC on, put his awning out and paced back and forth smoking his cigarette.  Later at work we were told he said he should not have over reacted to his neighbors, but oh well, he did and I don’t forgive actions like that very easily.  He was over the top for no reason.

Work was busy at times and slow later in the evening.  We had quite a few check ins and new reservations and a cancellation and lots of shoppers!  Bill got to leave about 8:15 for lack of things to do outside and I closed out and left after 9.

We watched TV a bit and I did some crocheting and read.
