        Then shortly after 9 am we hopped in the car to check out Forest Lakeside flyers, Model Aircraft Jet Fest, for the link click HERE .  Have never seen these model jet planes fly before and wow are they amazing.

     I asked one fellow how fast they fly and his reply not supposed to go over 200 kph (124 MPH), thats pretty fast, in seconds they are almost out of sight.

      It's real hard to get a photo in the air they are so fast.

      That was a fun outing this morning but now home shortly after 10 am , a bite for lunch secured to coach and moved on down the road 95 miles . We left our car at Rock Glen just wanted our house. we have a birthday party to attend, Suzie's girlfriend and neighbor for a lot more than 40 years.

nice back country paved roads

       We arrived at Chris and Bill's by 2:30 and backed in the lane beside their driving shed. Wished her Happy Birthday met some new people and chatted with other family members we have known for years as well as her children and grands.

        They have their new huge home mostly finished and is wonderful. Nice large patio out the back on their 25 acre lot.

Bill and Chris

       I wandered down to see the dogs for a bit, they have their own. Air conditioned home, that huge steel building and were out for a bit of fresh air, it was about 95 today and a bit warm for them especially the pugs. They have Pugs and Schnauzers that are all purebred, she used to breed them but I don't think anymore. This is their retirement home. Pretty nice huge dog house I would say.

        Then the dessert came out, cherry cheesecake,  a fudge cake and then of course.....

the BIRTHDAY CAKE

        We all gathered round sang happy birthday and her grands help blow out the candles.

Can I help Gramma?

         Now that was a fun birthday party , get together with friends, share stories, meet new people,, and  enjoy some good food. Thanks for having us here today Bill and Chris so glad that we were around to celebrate another birthday with her.

95 miles today

       Now time to call in a night, on the road tomorrow for a family reunion on Suzie's side, another country drive and more fun times.
       And thank our readers for stopping by and joining us as well. We have a nice breeze here and inside our below 80 f now so no need for airconditioning, hope you day was wonderful as well.
