Busy day with my daughter

My daughter Kelsey had the day off so she helped me run some errands and do a few things at the cabin today. Our first stop was Fairbank Iowa where we picked up the log style bed frames that I have had being built by a young Amish man.  It is always fun to drive through Amish communities and observe their lifestyles.

After loading up (4) bed frames on my trailer we hauled them to the cabin.  While there we did some final touch up painting in the bedrooms, bath and family room.  We wanted to get this done before the carpet is installed next week.  Then I spent a little time getting the first row of wood flooring down so that after Christmas when I arrive I will be ready to roll on the floor installation.  Getting the first row set and square to the walls is the most important step.  Getting that row "square" makes everything else go MUCH smoother.

After working at the cabin for a few hours we cleaned up and headed North into Wisconsin to a furniture store.  On the way we passed through a little town that we are looking forward to exploring when we have more time next year.

We found a sofa and love seat it looks like we will purchase.  Then back to Dubuque where we bought (4) sets of mattresses for the new bed frames then a well deserved dinner at Red Robin.
