Pete and Kelli’s social distance day 23
6th April 2020
There are a lot of jobs to do around the house, and we have to take advantage of the weather when we can. April is quite variable month with the temperature changing dramatically.
I was looking for stones to build up the berms at the back of the house. The cost for a small bag was about $15, however Kelli found some on Marketplace for $4 for a 5 gallon bucket, this was an offer too good to miss. Unfortunately the address was in Grand Rapids. Between the seller and Kelli they worked out how we could collect without any contact. That all agreed, we loaded a couple of buckets and some boxes in the truck and headed off.
The area of stones was quite clear, so we started loading the buckets. These became surprisingly heavy when I came to move them.
We paid $25 and got over five buckets full which pretty much cleared the area.
The truck certainly knew it had a heavy load as we headed back.
By the time we got back to Holland Kelli was starving, so out of desperation we stopped off at Burger King for an impossible burger. This is a vegan version that had great reviews. It was okay, if that was the only thing available opposed to eating a dog, I guess it wins on that front, but on a culinary delight, it is way down.
Once we were home we off-loaded the cargo. Considering the quantity, once we finished, it made a bit of difference, but maybe not as much as we thought.
