Great Weekend

Sat. we did not do a whole lot. But Sunday we went up to Big Island Pond to a friend of Bobs. His house is brand new and absolutely gorgeous. You sit out on the back deck and look down at the lake. After a small lunch we went out on the boats. Bob's friend Dave and his cousin Kevin both took out their boats. We went to a place where you could get out in the water and only be up to you knees or so. It was very refreshing since the weather was warm and sunny. Yes, it truly was a sunny day. We are supposed to have some rain tonight and then from Wed on it will be very nice and dry. But back to the lake. Bob and Liz have a great group of friends and they treated us like one of them. We had a lot of fun. And both Liz and I forgot to take our cameras. Liz noticed a dead tree that she would have loved to take a picture of for LaVon. Acutally she would have gotten 2 dead trees in one shot. Sorry LaVon. We were wondering how you got so interested in the dead tree pictures to begin with. Let us know. After we were out on the lake for a couple of hours, we went back to Dave's house to have a cookout. There was so much food and all of it was really good. We sat and talked for awhile and then it was time to go home. We were both tired. Today we sat out in the screen house for awhile until it got to hot. Bob was out cruisin on his bike and stopped by for a few minutes. Tomorrow is his birthday and we will go over there for a bit and then go out for Chinese takeout and go back to their place to eat. Then on Wed, we are going to Kenneybunkport Maine to visit Rick's cousin Kim. We will spend the day at the beach. That sounds so relaxing and I promise to take my camera. Rick talked to Josh tonight and of course our 3 year old grandson would not talk on the phone again. He is so ornery. I think he gets it from his dad, his granddad, and his great granddad. Poor Kid. LOL!!! We are having a good time up here. Rick jumps every time the phone rings, thinking it is bad news from home. Everything is going slowly back there. So keep us in your prayers please. We appreciate that. Oh, Shelley called us today to boast on her golf score. She golfed a 46. Way to go girl!!!! It was good to hear her voice. We might have a spot up at their park for the summer next year. Shelley said we should be getting a call within the next couple of months. That would be neat. With the price of fuel, we had to re-figure our strategy for our traveling. Then we think we may go back out west for the following winter. We really liked it out there with no bugs and humidity. But all that can change at a moments notice. We are retired and nothing is written in stone.
