Well it was a special day for my youngest sister Dee, as she turned 66 yesterday and we celebrated with fine eatin' and a cheesecake for dessert as well as a nice hike to the top of the mountain. That was my first hike in several days since I was last under the weather after Bobby and family left a couple weeks ago.
I had slept in as well until 6'ish to start the day and the did my routines before anyone came down from upstairs then it was a big mountain breakfast with eggs, bacon and toast. It was still over cast and the threat of rain with some sprinkles and lots of fog and we did by late evening see some sunshine. Sophy their new dog is just such a fine ball players and a bundle of energy as she runs non stop chasing a ball and brings it back. She is just a loving animal and really all most too much energy but so sweet. She is full grown but looks and acts like a puppy.
We settled in to a game of hand, knee and foot and the guys whupped the gals again, but they got revenge later on a long Spades Game and then we played various games through out the day and evening as well. We did do some porch setting after supper which was delicious grilled NY strip steaks, oven taters and salad. They are staying until Friday and want to go off the mountain when we go to Nancy doctors appointment and visit Helen before heading back to Woodstock. We are hoping to visit them for a couple days but not sure with this BP issue, LATER
