Weekend Plans

When it is this hot and humid outside, it is hard for me to be motivated to do anything, so here's my current plan.
Saturday Morning:
                               Check out Strawberry Farm's new store in West Knoxville
                                Wash the car (always a fun project)
Saturday Night :
                                Have a cookout and crank some homemade ice cream.  I remember it tasting
                                better then the electric ice cream maker versions.  We'll see.
                                I have the latest Jefferson Bass book and I plan to read it.

Sunday Brunch:  I am thinking that the Lakeside Tavern is a good choice.  I can enjoy the view
                           without actually being outside.  The food is pretty good too.  Lakeside Tavern
