Dumping

Today was the day of the sneak peak and that went well. There were quite a few things to do still this morning in preparation for said peak. One of those things was a trip to the dumps. Dave and I made the drive out and parted ways with some fine items like the arching black and gold shelving unit. Oooohhhh that was a nice one. We also dumped old table booths that don't fit and that we cannot store. It was a good load of trash actually. Whilst dumping Dave and i were talking about the guy that was working there, driving the big tractor. I do believe that we both thought it would be fun to work at the dump driving tractor and just pushing peoples trash around.

What is it about the dump that makes it such a great place to visit? Maybe it is just being able to let go and unload? Perhaps the sweet smell that exists there? Though there are none present at our local landfill I do remember seagulls at the dump. That always reminded me of the story of the seagulls coming and devouring the crickets that were taking out the crops of early Mormon settlements. What a bird. Seriously though, the dump is a fun place. I know my kids love going there even though they can't get out of the car. I was noting all the plastic bags that the wind carried into the fences. That totally reminds me of Ezibeleni Township outside of Queenstown where I served for four months. Crazy. Anywho, a dump run is a wonderful thing, highly recommended.

I need to get one of those nifty keyboards that is designed for the normal positioning of your wrists. The standard keyboard has become most uncomfortable in recent weeks with this carpal tunnel thing. This is really just a side note because I am hurting at the moment and it popped into my mind. I do quite like the wrist guards that I picked up a couple weeks ago. I have been able to sleep again and that is, well, welcome.

So anyway the sneak peak went pretty well. I am quite happy about that and hopeful that we will begin to see more and more traffic. I am really looking forward to getting the restaurant side up and moving. I think that we may need to start practicing on the grill as soon as the electrician gets it wired. I know I want to cook up some stuff and get that rolling. Time for an ultimate bacon 3 cheese philly. Mmmmm, deliciouso. I think and hope that it will go well. Certainly exciting to see it well received by those that visited.
