Sunday Father's Day
Up again about 5:30 after a good nights sleep and the rooster crowing as he does every morning. A nice sunrise through the trees, chatted with Bill and Chris on the deck with morning coffee for a bit, Puttered around for a while then got a nice walk down the road and back for my first mile in. Chat a bit more, worked on my pictures from yesterday and began this posting. Got a nice text and pictures from daughter number 2 wishing me Happy Father's Day and wanted to know if we are around for supper. Thanks for the offer but we away and will be back in the area in a couple of weeks, They will take us out for supper then, works for us and them. Also a text and picture from my son and an email from daughter number one. Nice to hear from them all today !

I started with some bacon, scrambled eggs then spotted the pig tails! Oh yeah it has been a long time and I love pigtails. Ok That did it, talk about too much food again!, Think we need to go hibernate, Rock Glen for a couple of weeks, lots of fish, salads and walking.

Love these pigtails, shrimp and had to try some fresh baked Rosemary bread no desert today though they had an excellent selection of fresh baked items |

here we are back to Chris and Bills outside in the shade beside our coach enjoying our e-readers 92F outside but a nice breeze |
Missing my Dad, what a happy fellow he was
Happy Father's Day Dad
We chatted with Bill and Chris for a while outside in the shade with a nice breeze in a very warm 93F day. Actually turn on our AC for a while to cool our coach down to a comfortable temperature before calling it a night and heading inside.
