A run, a climb, and grocery shopping

A friend was in town Saturday afternoon an decided to stay the night so we could go on a long run this morning. We have a 10K coming up in October and a half marathon in December. We drove out to two rivers park to run. I love going out there. It is so peaceful and you always see lots of deer. As we were starting mile four, we noticed the sign saying Pinnacle Mountain was about six miles away. That led to the bright idea of climbing Pinnacle Mountain. So after running four plus miles we drove over and climbed the mountain. It was freaking hard!!! But we did and it felt good. The view is gorgeous from the top. 

I was in Kroger Saturday morning and noticed the new beer taps they put in. You can now purchase growlers of various local beer while grocery shopping.

You can type in anything dealing with houses and get thousands and thousands of pictures to browse through. I look at EVERYTHING and pin the things I like on Pinterest. This makes it so easy to go back and review favorites. I have several boards dedicated to various rooms and the outside of the house. My focus these days is on the exterior. Hopefully in the next two weeks I will have a house pad and be ready to frame the house. I  know that I want a metal roof (not sure what color), cedar columns, stone, and cedar siding/shingles. not sure about color combination, how much siding or how much stone, and the front porch and walkway (the front yard will be pretty steep). I'm on Spring Break this week so I plan on visiting some lumber yards so I get a closer look at certain materia...
