Well Tuesday was another cold morning to start the day but it did get up to 51 by late afternoon and then back down in to the 40's after dark.I started the day much the usual to my routines that begin with some quiet time to honor my LORD, give thanks for another day and to lift up several by name. Joe has been moved to a rehab facility so he is on the mend and everyone else is holding as I speak. This time next week we will be away from the cabin and on our way back to hot sunny Florida which after these cold days will be a welcome. I spent the biggest part of the day wintering the gardens and flower beds with once again raking pine needles and loading the beds with them to help with the grass and weed problems next summer. What a difference they have made with getting the gardens and flower beds ready for sowing seeds and seedlings.
Nancy is starting to pack up and inventorying what we will take back with us and I'm storing away items in the sheds and what we will leave in the basement. We took a mid morning hike down by the Nymark's and visited for a few as they too get ready to leave with their camper on Thursday morning for Florida. They are excited about the prospect of buying the tax property on top of the mountain and renovating it, so Steve will be back on the 31st to put in a bid. We had a good hike and the views were so clear on this chilly morning.
We headed out around 5'ish to visit with the Frankis Family and have supper and then play cards with them until 9:30. The guys won both games but on the last of the four sessions which the gals were winning going into it. What awesome and fun couple they are and Katelyn is like a daughter since we have known her since she was a teenager. She is a great mom with two adorable kiddo's and Jake can just about built or fix anything. He is a great dad as well. We so enjoy them and their family.
Well we entertain the Nymark's this evening(wed) for supper and cards and then sister Dee and Mike are expecting to arrive on Thursday evening for a long weekend. It will be pushing us to get things accomplished for the departure on Wednesday but it will be fun none the less as we will eat high on the hog and play cards until the wee hours of the morning. Such is the life of a retiree, LATER
