A Good Day and It Was Warm!

I was up at 6:30 and Ken got up around 7.  We left at 7:30 to met Rick and Joyce from our Small Group at Church for breakfast.  It was nice to connect with them again.

We left there at 8:50 and headed to the Samaritan Womens Center here in Ephrata, a place for women and their children to go when they are homeless. They have organized a remodeling project where all the hallways, main meeting room, and the individual rooms are being painted.  We all volunteered 4 hours of painting time and we were so happy to be a part of this project.  Ken and Rick painted the large meeting area with the cathedral ceiling and Joyce and I primed the doors, doorways, and trim in 4 of the resident rooms.  They provided us with lunch and were so grateful for the help.  It was a good experience.

From there we went to pick up our finished tax return (Yeah!) and then drove to New Holland, a neighboring town to drop of our new CRV so they can put a hitch on the back tomorrow for our bike rack.  We were home by 3 and both of us were tired.  We aren't used to painting!  Ken took a short nap and I worked on my computer.  Then Ken decided to go for a walk.  It was almost 60 degrees, the mildest day by far that we have had since returning to PA. I should have gone with him, but I guess I was too lazy!  I feel ashamed!!!!! 

After dinner, we spent the evening relaxing and I did more pages in Katelyn's album.  Ken did some work in his office.  Our list of things to do while we are at home is starting to dwindle!  It's about time!

Shortly after dinner, the sky got very threatening and it appeared that a front was coming through.  So ends the warmer weather and sunshine!

This is the view we have from our balcony!  Rather amazing
and beautiful!  It did cool off quickly when the front came through!
