After breakfast we attended the homeowners and the board meeting which started at 9:45. After the meeting it was time to go furniture shopping. We drove up to Trader joes then visited Rooms to Go. It's a very nice store but we struck out. Next stop was Kanes. They didn't even help us, we sort of found a table and chairs made by Broyhill. We reserved the table and stopped by Havertys to take another look. We ended up buying the Havertys furniture. They gave us the Veterans day sale price plus a $50 veteran day bonus. This was a great deal. The list price was 999, sale price of 899 and veterans day bonus of $50 for a total of $849. Tax and delivery brought it back to just under $1,000. A stop by the clubhouse for lunch capped the day. I had lobster and shrimp croissant with a glass of Yuengling.
I messed up the Online groups on AVSA.org by accidentally deleting the online groups. I will have to restore them from a backup unless Mel has a copy. We had some crackers and cheese before leaving for the Opera at 6:50 am We found parking in front of the Church 2 blocks away. The Operetta was a total delight. When the curtain opened and the staircase was revealed with the entire cast and chorus it was stunning. The music was light and very enjoyable. We had nice seats in the center of the Opera house. There was light rain on the way back but nothing serious.
