My phone alarm buzzed at 3:15 am. Time to get up. Frank and I were heading to the Philly airport for a flight to Las Vegas then a second flight on to Portland to visit our daughter Kate and her friend Dan. Travel went without a hitch.
We ate our EST lunch at 10:30 in the Las Vegas airport but passed on playing the slots.Waiting at our gate at the Vegas airport, we could see our Southwest plane at the skybidge.
Since both Kate and Dan were at work, I used my Uber app and selected driver Ben to take us to Kate’s house.
Yep, that’s Kate’s house.
Once we arrived we let ourselves in and made ourselves at home.
We marveled at Kate’s on-going kitchen renovations. We loved the new quartz countertop.Ah, yes! Bud Light Lime and my favorite Greek yogurt! Thank you, Kate!
Then it was on to the menagerie.
Checked on the chickens. My they have grown since our visit in February when Onyx, Mrs. Featherbottom and Bakewell were wee little chicks. And by golly there were five eggs in the nesting boxes!We were greeted by Scarfy who joined us on the patio to bask in the sun! Freddy was still hiding at this point.When Kate got them she let the chickens into the backyard for some free ranging.Here the girls are enjoying some cool water.How does Kate get the chicken back in their yard? No problem. She simply gets out the treat bag and the girls come running!. Yum! Yum! Tasty dried meal worms!
After supper Kate and Dan wanted to take us to their closest neighborhood brewery. On Thursday nights, you can get a growler of one of their beers for just $10.00. Little did we know what we were about to see!
Funhouse Brewery! Every Thursday night from 6-9pm.The brewery was in a neighbor’s garage, of course.Dan holding the growler of tonight’s special brew – Triple Berry Snowcone.
Spending the rest of the evening at the house, we enjoyed a pie of Kate’s homemade rubbarb custard pie. We were entertained by the cute antics of our grand cats, Freddie and Scarfy.
