Good, Busy Day

Like many people, Val and I took advantage of a day of good weather and the wish to get outside to get lots of things done, and for me to have to wait until now to write.
We started with a stop at Spot Coffee on Delaware for breakfast before going to the Downtown Library to return a few books and take out a few more, as well as take out a Phillip Glass CD I actually don't have.
We then went home, did a bunch of garden and yard work, and then went to West-Herr Chevrolet to get an oil change for Val's Chevy Aveo and to have her car inspected. After we returned, we took Walker Evans to Squaw Island for a more than hour-long romp through the park, part of the time joined by another dog and dog owner. We returned home, fed the pup, cleaned up and went to the Century Grill for a great dinner, and, due to my hankering and sweet tooth, then went to Anderson's on Delaware for ice cream before coming home for the night to watch the Dallas-Vancouver hockey game and for Val to do some blogging.
With even better weather predicted for Sunday and another full slate of activities, we should have more to report tomorrow.
