Friday on Saturday




Friday started out as a wet day with heavy rain during most of the night and into the morning hours. I drove the truck to the REC instead of pedaling my bike. After my quiet time and a lite breakfast I got in a couple hours of hard play on the pickle ball and badminton courts. Friday is the only day we split the gym so we can have 2 different games at the same time. Either game is a good work out.


Nancy was at her weekly Bible study. Amy and Ava came for lunch and it cleared off enough so we could play outside for a couple hours. Amy took off for home so that Ava could get her daily nap in before coming back for dinner. Tyler had to work late(his boss was in town from Reston,Va) and eventually got home around 2 AM and then left again around 9 AM on Saturday to go back to Tampa.


Dan and Carol brought down a sack of stone crab claws and Nancy fixed oven baked chicken, basil pasta and a fresh salad for dinner. Amy and Ava came back for dinner and stayed until after 8 PM. After eating we ventured outside so Ava could play with Phoenix until it was time for their baths.

This morning(Sat.) Nancy, Dan,Carol and myself had to be at Calvary Chapel in Pinellas Park at 8 AM to help with the Angel Food distribution where we served over 600 people. This church is huge with over 2000 members but I must say their volunteers did not equal or match up to the number of volunteers at little Cornerstone in Sparta, N.C.. Their program did not run nearly as efficient or smoothly. Nancy and I gave them some pointers as to how Cornerstone distributed their orders. Bigger is not always better. Any how this ministry is so worthwhile and a blessing to all.


Well we are waiting for Arriane(Nancy's niece) who drove up from Miami for the weekend along with G/Grandma and Grandpa Everett as well as Amy, Ava and Tyler for dinner. I think the GAB(Great Aunt Besty) and Braden are also coming for dinner as well.
Hopefully the rain will let up in Philly so the 3rd game of the World Series can be played tonight. Well will close for now missing Bob and his family as they had a prior engagement. The turkey is our next door neighbor. Ava just loves him and Nancy talks to him daily.

How about that? You have a turkey for a neighbor down there, and you have a turkey for a neighbor up here!

Supposed to be COLD on the mountain this week, with the possibility of snow. This early!
