Terry
and Dennis went to visit Mike so I took the opportunity to catch up the blog
and do the vacuuming with some time left over for reading. It was time for lunch when he got back.
The
weather has warmed up again so we went to the pool and listened to music from
the courtyard. There is a nice couch
arrangement near the courtyard so you can sit there and take a dip when you get
too warm.
We
joined Vic & Jackie, Moe & Trish, Dave & Phyllis, Joe & Stella
and Bill & Margie for a trip to Organ Stop Pizza for dinner. We were stuffed pizza & beer when we got
back so we crashed.
Oct 24th – Thurs
We
& Gloria went to a rummage sale that is held twice a year at Nelda Rose
Methodist church. A group decided to
wear bright Hawaiian shirts for the Halloween dance so that was our
mission. Gloria got a couple of shirts
for them and a perfect blouse for Julie and I got a shirt for me and a tin for
a buddy burner as it seems that people are always looking for one. We stopped by Julie’s on the way home and she
was delighted with her blouse but it needed a slight alteration which I did as
soon as I got back. When I took it to
her, I had to take a treat for Bandit as I didn’t have one in the truck and he
did everything he could think of to coax a treat out of me.
I
went to exercise class and Terry helped Moe find a leak in a compartment in his
motor home. Shortly after noon we went
to pick up Phyllis at the airport. Our
timing was great and I walked in to help Phyllis with her bags just as she was
walking to the luggage carrousel.
I
made a late lunch when we got back. I
finally checked emails and saw that Brian & Bev were due to arrive so we
walked over and found that there were here.
Bev was shopping but she returned shortly and we helped unload all the groceries,
cleaning products and dishes. Then it
was time to go to the courtyard.
We
went to Gloria & Dennis’ for dinner along with Moe & Trish, Brian &
Bev and Phyllis. We had asked Phyllis to
dinner here but Gloria said to bring her along to their place. After dinner, Allen & Diane dropped by as
they heard our noisy conversation & laughter.
Oct 25th – Fri
We
had a quiet morning which included setting up chairs & tables for later and
making a “welcome home” sign for Ron & Terri who arrived early this afternoon. By the time they got backed in and started
setting up, it was time for us to head to the courtyard. We figured we had to get there early as North
Star was playing and they are popular.
Turns out not a lot of people arrived early but quite a few ended up
sitting in the back under shade as only sunny tables were left. We danced quite a bit and really enjoyed the
band.
When
the music finished, we headed right home and were soon joined by 28 others for
Ron & Terri’s first happy hour(s) here this season. We had everyone bring “heavy appies” which is
our term for appetizers that will be dinner.
A great time was had by all!!
