Some Relaxing Time in the Poconos

Saturday evening was spent mostly indoors, due to some cooler temperatures.  None of us were hungry, so we made hot dogs over an open fire, but ate indoors.  Then the games began and the men had a winning night!

Yesterday, Sunday, was a very overcast and cold morning, so the 4 of us had breakfast in Willie followed by more game playing.  I made some chili for all of us for lunch - seemed like a "soup type" day.  Then the sun came out and it got into the upper 60's.  Felt great and the shuffleboard courts were calling our names.  We ended in a 1/1 tie that will be broken next weekend when the Martins return.  They were on their way back home by 4:45.

Ken and I took a walk around the CG and saw 5 deer, including a buck.  Around 6 we got a call from Doloris - they were on their way back to the CG because Fred had forgotten his work cell phone.  They had left their camper here since they are returning for this coming long weekend.  Ken and I called them back and said we would meet them.  We were happy to do it and it probably saved them about an hour of driving time.  Looking forward to their return for more happy camping adventures.  I spent the evening jewelry making and Ken read.

Today, Monday, we woke to some cool weather again and a prediction of rain later this morning or early afternoon.  So we decided to drive to Bushkill Access area and hike the trail along the Delaware River.  We hiked about 4 miles and got back to the truck just as the first raindrops started to fall.  What timing!  Plan to spend the rest of the day reading, playing games, working on our computers, and making jewelry!  Somebody has to do it!!!!!

We think they leaves will be at their peak this weekend!

A beautiful day for shuffleboard and the courts are in good shape!
