We got it in our heads to visit Whole Foods in Hyannis, for no particular reason, more or less to get out of the house for a while.
We also wanted to find a scoop shovel, which had become a mild obsession after being demonstrated by one of the contractors who installed our radon remission system.
We stopped at Home Depot, but the only scoop shovel they had is owned (and loved) by the store. We did a shop at Whole Foods, nothing big, just a few items.
It being mid-day by that time, we’d hoped to eat at an organic food cafe in Hyannis, but they were closed for winter break.
Instead, we ended up at Keltic Kitchen, which had been highly recommended by one of our friends. We had a large, delicious and filling lunch and bought some nice items at their gift shop.
I suggested Agway in Dennis for the shovel. We were bloody lucky: they had one remaining from a shipment that had arrived only yesterday. Unbelievable.
We had a few hours of daylight left, so stopped at the RMV in Yarmouth to get the glasses restriction taken off our licenses. After a 45 or so minute wait, we got called. I didn’t see their test well enough to be comfortable, but Ron passed and shelled over $25 for a new license.
We headed home after that and got to the house around 4:30, just as the snow started up again in earnest.
