At 9:15 we left to got to Barry and Deb's CG. Deb and I went to Michael's Craft Store and to Hobby Lobby while Ken and Barry enjoyed some time chatting over tea and coffee. Then they went for a long walk in a park near their CG. They saw many different species of birds and watched 2 gentlemen spraying the water lilies that had become too invasive in the ponds.
Beautiful baby blue Heron! |
I think I have a kink in my neck |
Okay, I got the fish...... |
.....now how do I get him in the right position..... |
,,,,this doesn't seem to be working!!!! |
Okay, let's try a different strategy!!!!! |
Stately Heron! |
Maybe I should come up for some air?????? |
A group of Ibis! |
The "beautiful" woodstork! |
Ready, set, lets go!!! |
I guess they are buddies!!!!! |
Here are the gentlemen spraying the lake to kill the invasive water lilies! |
It made the area so green!!!! |
At 1:00 Deb and I met the "boys" at Grouper and Chips in Naples for lunch. It is a small "Mom and Pop" restaurant that offers excellent food at reasonable prices. We have eaten here the last 2 years with Barry and Deb and thoroughly enjoy it every time. Ken loved his blackened grouper and I had a phenomenal linguine pasta dish with lost of sauteed veggies, blackened chicken, and a lemon sauce. I brought half of my entree home and will be able to enjoy it another night!
This little restaurant in a strip mall is always extremely busy! |
Ken's blackened grouper and veggies |
Everyone had grilled or blackened grouper, except me. All of it was delicious! |
Cute signs around the restaurant. This one was painted by Leoma, the artist at Matlacha near Pine Island. |
Amen!!!!!! |
Barry and Deb followed us to our CG so we could play some games before ending our time together for 2016. We were able to play outside and we enjoyed 2 games of Skip-Bo (each won 1) and then the men won Pass
the Pigs, a positively crazy game. We had a fun time. Around 5:00 we said our goodbyes until next year.
Trying to understand the point system for the different positions of\ the pigs when you toss them. |
I think this is a snouter! |
Skip-Bo seemed to be the game of choice and you can tell by their happy faces! |
Ken started getting packed up outside for our departure tomorrow morning and I did the same inside. Around 6:15 we went to Wal-Mart to get some water, soda, and iced tea and then had leftovers for dinner when we returned. I spent the evening downloading photos Ken took today and working on this blog. Ken did some reading and meditating.
I talked to Noela today and the 4 of us are looking forward to being together for the next week at Harbor Lakes CG in Port Charlotte. It will be a fun time!
