Happy Turkey Day from the Sage's Place!

     Hello Dear Readers!

     Last Thursday I departed from the Wayward Inn at 0h Dark 30 and headed for the boat in Hub City. I landed on the other side at 0800 and headed for the Interior. When I stopped in Faith to top off the Ram I had only used a quarter of a tank and then I headed through the Coke to the Sage's. The driving distance on The Rock and on the mainland is about 610 km. Whe I arrived at the Sage's I checked the Ram's on board trip 'puter and I was surprised to learn my fuel consumption was 11.2 Lt/100km. That's 25 mpg. Outstanding!

     Since my arrival I have completed a plethora of chores around the Homestead. Sharpen knives, clear water lines, fix doors and latches, retrieve and install stuff.  

     Yesterday guests, the local Aunt and Uncle along with my L'il Sis (from another mother) and her husband Two-Bob, came for the holiday feast. Turkey with all the trimmings, cabbage rolls, smashed potatoes, salad, veggies and a butternut squash casserole. An amazing meal.

     One chore left for tomorrow and then I pack for the trip back to The Rock. More to come.

08:15 hrs

     I have a game plan as to loading the Ram for the trip back to The Rock. Later this afternoon my books and odds will be stowed on the back seat. A lunch for the road will be made. The Road Tar and the regular coffee for the thermos will be prepped as well. I'll shower, change into fresh clothes this evening and then those bags can be packed as well. All of this work falls under the axiom - Fail to plan. Plan to fail! 

     Yesterday, my Lobster shared a picture of some new bottle our Sr. Couch Monkey purchased. Sheep Dog Peanut Butter Whiskey. Sounds like something that has been squirted out of the north end of a south bound basset hound. And you just know that when I get back to the Wayward Inn he will be insisting that I try it. If he asks I will take one just for you Dear Readers. May God have pity on me.
