Well Saturday was another busy fun filled day with plenty of friends along with family here at the cabin. Lots of good eatin', target shooting. golf cart rides and game playing until the late evening hours, plus a trip to Sparta for the monthly Music on the Main. More on that later.
I started the day with my usual well before 6 rollout to some quiet times to honor my lord, Jesus, give thanks for another day and to lift up several by name for comfort and healing. All seem to be as well as can be expected due to ages and concerns. The gang started waking up around7'ish and then it was non stop with family action until around lunch time when friends DJ and Jenny arrived for lunch along with the Anderson's. The Botbyl's were off to Mt.Airy for the day and arrived back at the cabin in time for a delicious supper of rib eye steaks, roasted tatters and salad. After lunch us men and Gabe headed out to the backwoods yard under the shade of the trees and set up several targets. We use the big guns(AR15, 12 and 20 gauge shotguns) and several different pistols on targets for nearly an hour or more before we then headed down to the badmitton area and played several games in the heat. The small kiddos played with water balloons and other toys while running around the yards.
After an early supper we headed off to Sparta where the town was closed down and folks set up lawn chairs in the street and listened to a 6 member county or mountain music band play for an hour and a half. We were too late for most of the other individual bands that played as well. There was a good crowd on hand and the weather was perfect. We saw a few familiar faces but most were new faces in the crowd. It was going on 9 before we got home and some of us hit the shower and then started to teach the family a new game which everyone seemed to like. It was nearly 11:30 before we called it quits on the game that was only about half done.
Today is corporate worship day at Cornerstone and then lunch out at the Pizzeria before heading back on the mountain to a hike hopefully and then some time for Bobby' and family to pack as they leave early Monday morning for Florida, LATER
