Ken did some work outside and I made us a cooked breakfast. We ate inside, cleaned up, and then I spent time talking with Melissa about our adventure after we leave Vermont and head south. Ken visited with Chuck, Doloris, and Fred.
The boys decided that they had given us enough of a lead on the wins for the week and today we were going to experience quite a change in strategy and outcome. Boy, we were scared!!!! So, we started by playing ladder golf - 5 games to be exact! After the women won the 1st 2, they realized it was noon, which was the time they thought things would change!!!!! Oh, boy!!! They did win the next one, but that ended their "winning streak"! Of course their saying, "It starts here and now" was just that, a lot of talk!!!
After some resting and chatting, it was time for a round of miniature golf. After getting clubs and balls at the office (that took some "doing", since they are short staffed and thought we could wait till 3 when another person would be in the office - that didn't work for us! We had to talk to the CG host who was willing to go to the office and get them for us! What is that about????) Again, the women were the winners, but only by one less stroke for the 9 holes. The boys got 2 holes in 1 on the last hole, but we still won! Of course, on the way back they were talking while walking behind us saying that they are winners when they let us win. They win when they lose! Happy wife, Happy Life!!!! Whatever!!!!!
We met at Martins to eat lunch together outside and then drove to the Cape May Zoo about 4 miles from the CG. It is a wonderful FREE Zoo with so many interesting and exotic animals. We spent about 2 hours there and really enjoyed it. The quality of the zoo is amazing and it is so well maintained. Who says there is nothing left that is free. We found 2 things this trip - the Little League World Series and the Cape May Zoo - wow!

We were back to the CG by 5 and decided because of the wind and coolness, we would eat in our RV's and meet around 7:15 to play games. We all went to Martins RV and we played Skip-Bo (women) and then 5 Crowns which the men won. It was a fun evening complete with Doloris' fresh made brownies and then vanilla ice cream. What a delicious treat!
