Down to 50 f overnight sure was great for sleeping. Got up around 5:30 consumed coffees and got some computing done. Then headed out down the lane up and around the corner and back here by 8 am. got my first mile done.

heading down the lane heard some noises in the swamp |
|
these guys were pretty noisy |
|
down the road and around the corner following my shadow |
A bit later into Durham for a drive and pick up a couple of things in town. Back to the Ridge and chatted with our good friends and neighbours for a while then a tasty light lunch. Back outside to enjoy our page turners.

nice mural at the main intersection in town |
Stopped by the day use area on the river a pretty nice beach, even a few young guys splashing around early in the morning, it was that warm out.
Decided to try out a pitcher of Strawberry Beer Margaritas that Suzie suggested, and this in what I whipped together. For that recipe you can click

but I liked the beer Margaritas better.

very refreshing and different to toast Rob's birthday |

Today is a celebration for Rob's 69th birthday, old guy that he is almost as old as me. I made the Margaritas for a toast when everyone was here. We had Rob's daughter, son in Law, Patsy's sister Donna and Gerry, then Bills cousin Peter , his wife and dog stopped by as well. We had wonderful Happy hours chatting sharing stories and a few laughs.
|
lots of fun conversation |
Patsy had made a couple of tasty trays of lasagna , and Pat made a caesar salad and garlic bread, we all had a very tasty feast.
