After no walking for the past two mornings, we were able to get our exercise in today. The day started out sunny and cool with the wind coming up as the sun rose. After a few hours of sun, the clouds moved in with off and on showers and cool temps for the rest of the day.

John was happy this morning--he finally caught the elusive gopher. He thinks there are more of them as there are several holes, and doesn't think one gopher would be doing all that work by himself. He reset the traps and hopefully will be successful once again.

I was having trouble downloading a computer program, so since the weather wasn't so nice today, we decided to head back to Grand Forks and get the Geek Squad at Best Buy to install the software. We dropped the computer off and were told they would call when it was ready to be picked up. By then it was lunch time and we went to Culver's for a change of pace--no Burger King today. Just as we were leaving the restaurant, Best Buy called and said the computer was ready. It worked out great as Best Buy was right next to Culver's.

Our next stop was Wal Mart where we bought a wireless mouse and external hard drive to use with the laptop. From there we did some window shopping in the mall and then headed back across the river to MN. Our final stop was Cabela's where John wanted to check out some ammunition. There were no sales, so we left empty-handed.

John and I had just arrived home when Matt and our pastor, Adam, pulled in the driveway. They wanted to check out the food plots and see where the ground blinds were located. They will be bow hunting here this fall. John went out to the deer stand this evening to watch for deer and saw one small buck. He likes to see if the deer are coming to feed in the plots and whether they are bucks or does. The remainder of our evening was spent watching the Vikings and Saints NFL game.
