Disrupted Plans

Well, the weekend started out as planned. Picked up Robbie bright and early Saturday morning. Had him, 20# of ice, adult beverages, sandwiches and Pringles in the front end loader and heading to the cabin. Once there, we had numerous projects planned to complete during the day. We planned on cutting and installing the last of the ceramic tile in the bathroom and utility room; staining baseboards; sanding and staining ceiling panels; hanging the living room blinds and cutting out the over hang on the roof for the kitchen flue. Unfortunately, no sooner than we got things set up and started working on the floor tile, I started receiving phone calls and pages from work. We had to close down our activities quick with no chance of resuming Saturday or Sunday. After getting in from work this evening, I gathered Nic and Kuma d.o.g. with me and we went to the cabin for some relaxation. Nic seems to really enjoy the cabin. He sat at the bar in the kitchen and played with the survival radio; cranking it up, pulling in classic blues stations. Kuma and I sat on the porch in the dark just listening to the tree frogs, pond frogs and crickets while I enjoyed one of the beverages still on ice in the cooler. After shutting down, we hiked back to the truck under a 3/4 moon and flushed out 2 deer on our way. Maybe I'll get a break this week to complete the bathroom tile and get cabin construction back on track.
