Friday Morning July 26th

Well Thursday saw us again with some rain over night and a shower or two with over cast skies and moderate temps. Dee and Mike are still here and while we had to go to Elkin for a doctors visit for Nancy they ran to Galax and then we all went to Sparta together for lunch at the Pizzeria . Afterwards the girls visited the coffee shop and then we headed home and sat outside on the deck playing hand, knee and foot. The guys prevailed again after a tough hard fought game.

We did some porch setting for a couple hours and then settled into one last game of Euchre and the guys was once again victorious. It was a tough day on the gals for game playing. We ended the evening listening to a sermon from Cornerstone Chapel in Leesburg on waiting on the Lord given by young Austin Hamrick who is quite a speaker.

Mike, Sophy(dog) and I took a nice hike later in the evening before dark as I had missed the morning hike with Dee, Mike and Sophy. Speaking of Sophy she is quite the ball player and never wants to quit. She wears you out watching her chase the ball and makes you wonder how she can expend so much energy and is ready for more. She is really a very sweet dog and had filled the empty space in their hearts after Bonnie passed away a couple months ago.

Well we will attend a funeral this afternoon after Mike and Dee leave this morning for an old friends daughter who passed at the young age of 61. We are planning on heading up their way next Thursday for a long weekend as we will attend a cousins reunion on Sunday. We will have this week to catch up on some minor chores around the cabin and hopefully diet a little, LATER
