When I arrived at the main, I heard Lonnie chatting with Colt. I couldnât help but smile when I heard the deep baritone of Coltâs chuckle at something Lonnie had said.
âHey, guys, whatâs so funny?â I asked when I joined them.
âJust guy talk,â Lonnie said. âI thought you were going shopping with Lacy today.â
âI am. In fact, I am on my way to meet her right now. I just wanted to check in with you before I left.â
âIâm tearing out walls today, which is always one of my favorite parts of a remodel. The electrician and plumber will be here on Monday, and once they are done, we can start putting everything together. We are sailing right along. I anticipate being completely done by the first of June, barring unforeseen complications.â
âThatâs good. Weâve had a lot of people wanting to book events in July and August. At this point we have just been taking names.â
Lonnie nodded. âThatâs a good idea. While I donât anticipate any huge problems, Iâve been doing this long enough to know that they can pop up where you least expect them.â
âThatâs what I figured.â I glanced at Colt. âHow is your investigation coming along?â
âIt isnât. Iâve pretty much hit a dead end.â
âIâm happy to meet with you to brainstorm. I should be back from shopping with Lacy by midafternoon. I need to go over the landscaperâs plans with Georgia at some point, but maybe we can grab dinner?â
Colt lifted a shoulder in a nonchalant manner that seemed to me to be intentional. âIf you have time, I wouldnât mind a second opinion. I can pick you up around six thirty.â
âSix thirty should work.â I glanced back to Lonnie. âIâll have my phone with me if you need to contact me.â
Lonnie waved. âOkay; enjoy yourselves.â
Lacy was ready and waiting for me when I arrived. She slid into the passenger seat, then gave me directions to the first of three antique stores in the area she had decided to visit today. I knew what I was looking for and Lacy seemed to have a good grip on where I was likely to find those items, so I hoped by the end of the day Iâd have a truckload of deliveries coming my way. Lonnie, Georgia, and I had discussed it and decided that it would be all right to start placing furniture on the first two stories of the house. If we found furniture for the third floor or the attic suite, weâd store it in the basement for now.
âThe first place I want to stop is best known for furniture. While they carry some dishware and smaller items, they specialize in large pieces like tables, desks, beds, sofas; that sort of thing. My experience is that they usually weed through the items they offer for sale, so almost everything is good quality. They do tend to price their things on the high end, so because you donât enjoy bartering, I think it would be best if you let me negotiate any items you decide to purchase.
