Happy Halloween

Burt's Pumpkin Farm and Amicalola Falls

On Saturday, October 18th, we joined the 3rd annual Pumpkin Run and Picnic.  We all meet at 9 am then caravaned up to the mountains to Burt's Pumpkin Farm.  We enjoyed the farm for a couple hours then went down the street to Amicalola Falls.  

John was able to capture some great photos.

Gas in the ATL

I went to Kroger on Saturday and couldn't get into the parking lot due to the lines at the gas pumps.  I parked away from the store and could not believe the lines.  The lines for gas went up and down the parking lot aisle and would say at least 100 cars waiting.  The cars waiting included the lines out on Hwy 9 turning left and right.

I went back to Kroger on Sunday to do my regular shopping and the gas pumps were empty and very few cars in the parking lot.  I did my shopping which took about 30 minutes and when I got up front, the parking lot was full of cars waiting for gas.  Once again the parking lot was closed and cars up and down the aisles.  I saw the tanker truck by the pumps.

I was worried that I would not be able to get out of the parking lot.  The checker told me that they were told that they would not be getting gas.  They were surprised when the tanker showed up and with in minutes, another 100 cars.  I asked how all these people knew if the store didn't know.  The bag boy said that people are following tanker trucks and when the pull into a station they fill up.  

CRAZY!!  Now people are calling 911 if someone else cuts in line or if they are filling up multiple gas cans.  These people are now called GASHOLES.

Addition to the backyard

We have added a new addition to the backyard.  A MOVIE SCREEN!!  Yes, we can now watch movies while in the pool or just lounge around the yard.  

The movies screen is located on the new arbor by the pond.

Thanks Alison for giving John the idea!!
