Another Great Week

The weather was great - sunny and warm. The only problem with that is the lack of rain. We desperately need a good soaking. The lake level is dropping and the flowers are drooping. I finished several craft projects recently. A knitted afghan that I started over 3 years ago, a gift and some beading. I finished a black and silver bracelet but need to purchase more beads to make a matching necklace. There is a bead store just outside of Huntsville. I sense an impending field trip. Tuesday, we headed to North Bay for a luncheon date with two of Wayne's cousins - Jackie and Bruce. We had a great time catching up and picking Jackie's brain for info on the Rio Grande Valley in Texas. We are heading south this winter.

On Thursday we helped Anthony and Nancy (park owners) to move the playground.  Then Wayne and Anthony checked all the structures and reconfigured  the components to make a safe and improved play area.  Wayne and Anthony seemed to have fun swinging and sliding.  Hopefully the kids will too.

Hard at work

This was a busy weekend.  On Saturday afternoon there was a briefing on the use of a defibrillator and a review of CPR.  A couple of years ago the park did some fundraising and bought a defibrillator.  Good thing to have just in case.  After that the kids tie died tshirts.  The process was very interesting.  Next year I'm going to make one.  The finished shirts were beautiful

Learning all about defibrillator operation

This morning there was a community coffee hour complete with Tim bits.  It was a nice way to get to know more park residents.  I hope we have more.

Well that just about sums up our week.  We had fun - did you?
