I will definitely see you there! The past couple of festivals I have missed out on the casserole sale.... I plan on getting there early this time, lol.

Have fun - send me your pics, I'm happy to share them!

It's been a slow week next door - not much to report.

The plumbers arrived and put their piping in place. (sewer / water and vent piping)

Yohe Plumbing is doing the job. (Stan - JD and Jason)

Jason (or was it JD?) tells me that they won't be back now until the framing is complete -- then they will come back and extend the piping all the way up!

Paul and his crew are still working, too. Right now they are compacting the dirt around the piping - then they will add about 4 inches of stone -- and then...... on to the Next step!! Pouring the slab- Finally!!!

Don't forget - here is what they are building:

Give me a call for the details on these great downtown residential units! Perfectly located :)

Talk to you soon !

In my opinion anyway! I just love it - and it is the perfect size, too :) And the price is right!

Right here in downtown Aiken (on Laurens Street, near the corner of Richland) is the Sweet Cow Creamery --- better known for their ice cream --- but believe me, they make a fantastic bag lunch!

Just take a look at the bag :

YES - THAT SAYS $2.89! (add .50 for your drink!)

I have tried them all - they are all great!! Although, the pimento cheese sandwiches are my favorite, mmmm mmm mmm. Soooo good :)

The weather is perfect for eating al fresco -- grab a table out front!

And when you are done with your bag lunch - you can have some ice cream for dessert!!!

This is my favorite place for lunch! It's quick - it's filling - and it's priced right! :)

Stop in and be sure to tell Lucy and Don that you read about them in my blog!

You may just see me there.

In honor of the Masters Golf Tourny being held just 'cross the river in Augusta - Downtown Aiken is having it's own golf tourny!!
