View of the day-Marilyn comes out of Walmart with half a cart of treasures...mostly for Al...all from our big win of the day.
No rain last night and the sun was shining this morning, plus we had a strong west wind...good drying weather. Of course, there is a lot to dry.
We knew we would not be combining, so it was Estevan day as we all went to the bright lights to watch Gordie and his Steelers play football against Notre Dame. We left just before noon and when we got into Estevan, we went to the Case dealer to check on their toy collection...pretty slim. The girl behind the counter asked Al if he collected toys and when he confirmed it, she said there was a gentleman who had come in earlier in the day and he had a collection of 1/16 Case and International toys. He was moving into a condo and wouldn't have room for them and wanted to sell the whole collection...BINGO! Al called him and left a message.
We got down to the football field and found a spot on the bleachers. The sun was shining and it was a great day for football...the Steelers posted their first win 38-0. Not only that, Marilyn talked Al into buying $5 worth of 50/50 tickets and we won $162! A good day all around. Marilyn was using Gordies video camera to record him in action so Uncle Al could analyze the action on the field when we got home...that should be interesting.
After the game, we went to Walmart to pick up a few things then stopped for supper before heading back to Carlyle...still no sign of moisture. If it doesn't go tomorrow there could be a road trip after the Riders game.
Say, perhaps...somewhere there might be a toy collection...
