Well Friday started out with an overnight early morning storm that left the appliances flashing from the power being interrupted and heavy down pours of rain and along with it the humidity we dread so much is back as well. I started the day much the usual with a 6'ish roll out to my cup of hot green tea laced with turmeric and ginger while I posted this ramble then some quiet time with my Creator while lifting up several by name and giving thanks for my many blessings. All seem well at this point in time. I got ready a little before 8 and headed out on my bike to the rec. for two good hours of pickle ball play. Needless to say with all of the rain I didn't have to hand water until late in the evening.
We decided to have the Botbyl's for a supper of salmon fillets, Brussel sprouts and a fresh garden salad. Carol brought a bowl of yellow rice which fit perfectly with the meal. We all shared a glass of the fruit of the vine before chowing down. The meal was to perfection in taste and color and then later we all had a delicious cup cake she also brought which was decadent to say the least and if kept me up through out the night as it was nearly 9 before we decided to have dessert. Dessert at that hour is a no no for me, oh well but it was so good.
Dan and I watched the last inning of the Ray's vs Giants in San Francisco and the Ray's won again 5-2. while girls cleaned up from supper. They are now 6 out of 8 games as winners, what a great start for this ball club. We decided to show them our two new games we play called "31" and "dice" that we learned from Toni and Mark. It was a raucous time with Carol and I each winning 31 of the two games we played and then I won the dice game in a close match with Carol, oh well its seldom I ever win over her. It was a fun time and something we hadn't done in awhile as they have been so busy with his dad's health and babysitting their new grand daughter who is just a cutie at 6 months. It was also their anniversary weekend so we will meet in downtown St.Pete with Tracy's this afternoon for supper and then come back for games as well.
That was about it for Friday, LATER
