Tuesday has been a Beautiful Day

The morning started out with a chill in the air but quickly warmed to a pleasant day. After my quiet time and a banana I biked to the Rec. and got in 2 great hours of pickle ball. Initially there were just 3 players but finally a 4th showed and we had 5 games of fast intense mixed doubles play. Talk about good play Mitsco and Jersey Jim put it on Mary Ann and myself in the fitth game by a single point.Great play and we are hoping for at least 4 tomorrow as we will not play on Christmas Day(the Rec. is closed).

After the Rec. I worked in the garden for an hour, then squeezed fresh orange juice and picked greens for dinner tonight. Nancy made oven potato's, grilled pork chops, greens(collards, kale and mustard greens )and corn bread. Carole brought apple strudel with vanilla ice cream. Yumm!! We then played 3 games of Oh Hell and Nancy won the middle game with me taking the first and last games. We had a fun time as we always do with our neighbors and good friends, Dan and Carol. They left by 9:30 as the girls were yawning, having hot flashes and giggling out of control. Yeow!!! Menopause!!!
I will be out late tomorrow night as we go to Tampa for the first Christmas Eve service at Element Church so there may be no blog until after Christmas Day. Anyhow Merry Christmas to all and don't forget the reason for this joyeous season; the birth of Jesus. God Bless. Later.
