10-27 Who Needs Cable or Satellite TV?

Deer in our backyard
We did away with our cable years ago and don't miss it either. We get the local channels by using an antenna and when we're not using the antenna we use our ROKU. What got me thinking about cable was this morning when we watched six deer (two does, two bucks and two fawns) running, eating and walking through our backyard. I thought who needs Animal Planet or Nature we have it living in our backyard.

Winterizing the boat
Flo's new friend
Larry removing the hoses to drain the water out
After watching the deer Larry decided to winterize the boat. Every year when the boating season is over and it starts to get cold Larry will winterize the boat. When Larry winterizes the boat he drains the water out of engine area and the manifolds. Then he oils the areas he needed to. I helped Larry by chasing down the tools he needed. While working on the boat Flo was outside with us. A young cat decided to come to see us but Flo barked at it. She probably wouldn't hurt the cat once she checked it out. The cat didn't know this so it stayed on the lot next to us. Larry went over to the lot and petted it. It was very friendly and would talk to us but everytime Flo would bark it would hesitate. After we finished working on the boat I put Flo inside and the cat came closer to us. During the day I read, Larry surfed the internet and Flo pestered the cat and sunned.

new boat shoes for me
new walking shoes for Larry
 In the evening Larry and I went to our club's square dancing lessons. When we showed up the club had enough angels so they didn't need us so we said our good-byes and left. My boat shoes are worn out and Larry has been needing to buy bigger shoes. So off to Academy we went to look for shoes. Larry really wanted to get a pair of white shoes like he already has except in a larger size. But they didn't have the New Balance shoe he liked in his size in white but they had it in black. He hesitated a  bit because New Balance had changed the shoe but at the end we bought the black pair. While there we found a pair of white boat shoes for me. We got home earlier than Flo expected so she was sound asleep on her bed. When she realized we were home she was excited to see us. We had a nice day.
