Well - Today was our first day out on Dale Hollow Lake. It ws a little chilly, only 75 and a little breezy, but we enjoyed it anyway. We spent a little time cruisin', a little time snoozin' and a little time fishin' and had a great time. Gonna have to dedicate some time to cleaning up the boat after the winter over. Lots of pollen and tree debris and some mold from being covered.
Chuck made a case for some of his flint arrowheads and blades. Last summer he helped our neighbor rebuild his barn doors. So - in return, Joe gave him the weathered barn wood from the old doors. The wood is really aged, perhaps 30-40 years worth, and on the outside it's black and the side that was inside of the barn is grey. Chuck as also made some picture frames from the same wood.
I just found out that I'm going to have to have knee replacement surgery in May. Seems that the arthritis has really deteriorated my left knee joint and it has to be repaired. Not looking forward to it but am hoping it will get rid of the pain I've been having for awhile. I'm sure, in time, I'll wind up having the same thing done to the right knee also. Anyway, in preparation for this, we're getting rid of the bath/shower combination in our master bathroom and replacing it will a full, tiled shower. We intend to redo the entire bathroom but this will be the start. We purchased all the material and Ken, Chucks friend, is going to help get it started by laying in the shower pan. Hopefully it will only take a few days and my bathroom will be back in operation.
