Octobe 26-27


October 26 I don't know if I have talked about Enterprise Rent a Car. They really do pick you up and they want your business and they act like it. They have an office in Hixson Tn which is not far from our Marina. On Friday we were back in civilization so after picking up our car (they pick you up and take you to their office to get the car) we had some errands to do chief of which was a haircut for me. After our errands we headed down I75 for Atlanta to the True Value Market. We got there just in time to meet our son Brian and Chris our Store manager for our scheduled tour of the new prototype 13,000 square ft True Value Store which was set up on the Market floor. On Friday evening we had dinner with many of our fellow retired Board of Directors of True Value.
October 27--Judy and I spent the day walking the market floor. It was a relaxing day for us--no buying decisions. All that was undertaken by Chris and Brian. This is the Spring Market where they buy lawnmowers, grills, etc. This evening our friends Sharon & Don Barger flew into Atlanta and caught the train to the Hyatt where we met them. After eating a very good meal at Ray's Fish House across the street we all headed for Chattanooga and arrived back at the boat about 10pm
