A Visit From Good Friends

Linda had a couple of days off in a row from work so she and Don and the boys headed down to Peace River to visit with us for the day. They arrived early so that Don could get in a little pickelball with the group. Despite the heavy rains the night before and the morning fog and mist, one court was dry enough for us to play before 9:00 am. Rich and I and Don headed for the courts while Linda decided to stay behind, enjoy the morning with a good book.

Rich and Dee were at the courts, so it was like 'old home week' with the five of us there from MeadowPointe. About 11:30 we headed back. I'm not sure how much reading Linda actually did ...........she looked VERY releaxed upon our return.

By this time the fog had burned off and the air was getting a bit heavy. So we headed inside for a little lunch.

A little later in the day - and after much conversation and catching up on what's been going on, it was time to stretch the legs. So we headed for a short walk with the 'boys' along the Peace River. Linda spotted the butterfly along the side of the trail. Even the dogs did not scare it away. Perfect photo opportunity.
Yes - look at the smiles now!!! A little pickleball, a refreshing nature walk and now we share a pitcher of Pina Coladas and toast to good friends.
It was back to the pickleball courts about 5:00 for Rich and Don, while Linda and I stay inside where it was a bit cooler. Burgers on the Grill with salad and beans finished off a perfect day and then we said "farewell" ...........for a little while anyway, to our friends.
