Well Saturday turned out to be another beautiful day after a foggy start with temps in the upper 50's and it reached the low 70's by days end. Gorgeous weather and the garden sure loves these temps as well. I started the day much the usual with a 6'ish roll out to my cup of tea while I post this ramble then some quiet moments giving thanks to my Creator and Lord and lifting several up by name. All seem as well as can be expected. The bum knee is doing better and I'm walking without pain but I'm going to take a few more morning off from pickle ball until I get my brace and then slowly work back to daily play. I just over did it and now I'm aware of how too much activity can get me down and thats no fun. I suppose I must accept the fact I'm not as young as I use to be any longer, oh well.
I headed out after a lite breakfast to hand water the gardens before we headed out around 9 to St.Pete Catholic where grand daughter Ava was playing in a "shoot out" basket tournament. They played at 9:30 and won by two points as she played great once again and was the high scorer of the game as well as the most re-bounds. It was a tough team and at one time were behind by 7 points. The second game was much different after the 15 minute intermission. They won that game by 10 points and were never behind. Ava once again was high scorer and with the most re-bounds. She is very aggressive on the court and has become quite the ball handler as well. We love attending her games and she has two more next week. We have got to know some of the parents of her team member and they are fun as well.
We came back after a stop at the library for new reads I had ordered on line and then had a late lunch around 2'ish which held us the rest of the evening except for a bowl of pop corn done the old fashion way. In between college football which were all great games I hand watered the gardens as the sun was shining brightly. We watched games until it was shower time around 9'ish and then I watched the Lightning win in over time against a tough Boston team without a couple of their best players. if they continue to win without them then when they do return we should have a shot at another cup win.
Today is co[orate worship at BridgePoint/ Seminole Campus at 9 AM. I'll usher the first service then we will leave as we have a lunch date with the Tracy's and the Botbyl's as Dan turned 67 this week. He is just a kid as I tell them every chance I get. We have incorporated the Nymarks into our close circle but they are gone so much plus they have family here as well who keep them busy, LATER
