We laid a tarpaulin out on the drive so that the small mountain of crushed rocks due for delivery today, could be dumped without staining the concrete.
The next thing on our agenda was to drive back up to the stone yard to collect the rest of the paving slabs.
The idea was to leave straight after breakfast and get back to work on other things.
However Kelli wanted to wash her hair, and not wanting to be seen in public until it was done.
This is never a quick process, there is a strict protocol that cannot be rushed. Needless to say she was finally ready two hours later.
I was able to do a lot of things to the patio shuttering in anticipation of the hardcore arriving.
We loaded up the remaining slabs, putting the truck under more stress.
Heading back, we did our customary stop-off at Goodwill, I mooched around the furniture area whilst Kelli zeroed in to the clothing racks. Almost immediately she found a good quality rug and snapped that up.
Arriving back there was still no hardcore deliveries.
Kelli wanted to post the storage box we had just finished, and took the opportunity to use the rug as a prop.

The pictures turned out good, and very soon interest was starting to show.
As it started to get dark it was obvious that the delivery was not going to happen, I filled my time adding a fine steel mesh to the back of the door of the drawerless dresser.
