Good afternoon y’all. It’s been a couple of fun days around here! I painted awhile yesterday ... then golf cart rides with the kids ... then we met the L’s at Crazy Gator for dinner. They came over to see the kids and a PARTAY happened. 🥳

Clean up time about 11:30ish. 

The B’s walked over about 9 o’clock and shared some fun stories. 

So a  few days ago Markymark walked into his side yard and heard a thud by his feet! It scared the crap out of him. 😂  A squirrel had fallen out of a palm tree! Before he could really react the squirrel had recovered and scooted up the palm tree again. He went in the house and told Lani it had scared him to death. The very next day MM was out in the yard when he got hit on the head, Yep you guessed it, by the same darn squirrel. He said it nearly knocked him out. The squirrel ran up the tree again. He wobbled into the house to tell Lani that he had been hit on the head and was a bit dizzy from the squirrel attack. Lani had a good laugh! WTF? An attack squirrel? The two walked went down to the boat at their other house where MM was bitten on the ankle ... but by what???  His ankle swelled and he had to hobble to the other house for an ice pack! We all had great laughs over his misery. He actually went home a little bit early because he had a buyer coming for Lani‘s dad‘s bass boat today. Yes, that’s the one that was old smoky in the pictures a few days ago. There will be stories!!! 😬

The boat buyer took the ol’ Ranger for a test ride on the lake and Mark he thought they were going to be swamped!!!  Anyway, the fella bought it so over to the boat ramp MM went, alone. The buyer drove the trailer to the boat ramp. That’s the end of the story on the Ranger boat until our next happy hour. 

Tonight we met Karen & Pete at Oakwood Smokehouse for ribs. We hadn’t seen them for about a month and had a lot of stories to catch up on. They are planning a trip to Canada next year with an RV group and then the following year a big trip out west. They are certainly enjoying their camping.

The son who married last November is going to make them grandparents! Nice. 

Sue and Wayne are on quarantine at the cottage but not alone. This morning they had a fox in their yard and then about breakfast time they had baby bear at one window and mama bear at the kitchen window. I asked Sue if she had taken any pictures, but she said she was too shocked to even think about it. Ha ha. I guess!!! It’s very HOT 🥵 up north right now ... at Emerson it was 104. WTH?
