Since I didn't work or have class in which I needed to write the date on anything it wasn't until this morning that I realized that yesterday was December 7th AKA Pearl Harbor Day AKA the day that Grandpa passed away. Despite my forgetting until today I think I would have done gramps proud.
Sunday Dec 7, 2009
- Woke up (slightly hungover) and watched the sun rise on Sugar Lake
- Watched as 3 ice houses were put up in the following 3 hrs and snow began to steadily fall
- Helped make a hearty breakfast for 10 with my cousin
- Made 3 beds and cleaned all the surfaces in the garage/bar area
- Gave 8 hugs goodbye
- Drove home through the woods in the beautiful snow listening to the Vikings game on the radio
- Commented on numerous ice homes, fish statues and smoke houses
- Went home and changed into my snow stuff
- Drove out to a tree farm, helped pick out a decent 9-footer fir and watched Ryan chop it down and tie it to the roof of the car with his dad
- Had some meat and twice baked potatoes for dinner
- Watched the Albert Lea episode of Extreme Home Makeover
- Took a shower and went to bed early
A decent day to remember if you ask me!
