We got up this morning just amazed at how fast these last 2 weeks went here at Harbor Lakes and we would be moving tomorrow. It's most likely because we like it here so much! John did part of his morning routine and I did my exercises in bed while watching all the old shows from my childhood. It sure makes the drudgery of exercising go a lot faster!! When he got back he cooked us some eggs. I called Bonnie to see what was on their schedule today and to let her know that John left his Air Force hat in their rig last night. I wanted to know what a good time would be to stop over and pick it up. She said they would be there all day because they were preparing for their move tomorrow. About a half hour later she called to ask if they could come over to us instead and play some shuffleboard. They had to go to Walmart, anyway, which is fairly close to us. That worked out great for us! I took a shower and did a few preparatory things for our move tomorrow. Just as John was finishing his walking he spotted a mobile dog grooming van at the office. The groomer had time to do Kylie (she has been really stinky) so John came right back and delivered the dog. She only charged $20 for a bath and nail cutting... what a deal!! They got back about 45 minutes later and John got his shower. By that time Bonnie and Ken were on their way. They brought their lunches along and we all sat out at the picnic table while they ate. Then we headed to the shuffleboard courts or should I say... the SLAUGHTER HOUSE!! That's exactly what they did... slaughter us! Bonnie and I just couldn't stay out of the minus 10 space. Both games were a blood bath with the score of the 2nd game something like 75 to minus 30. It was awful! And it was hot and humid... the sweat was just pouring off of me. That HAD to have something to do with it!!

| Bonnie's form looks good, so why are we losing? |
 |
Bonnie: "what the heck is going on?"
Ken: "Oh, yeah, another minus 10 for the women!"
He looks pretty pleased with himself, doesn't he?!? |
 |
| I'm pretty sure John just tapped me into the minus 10 space! |
 |
| I look like I know what I'm doing, don't I? |
 |
Look at that...2 minus 10's for the women and 7 puts for the men!
At least the women have 7 puts, too, so we only end up with minus 13!! |
 |
| Dog gone you, John!! |
 |
| At least we were still smiling!! |
 |
Notice that Bonnie took her sunglasses off...
that must be the problem...NOT!! |
The forecast for the day was cloudy with possible scattered showers, but it never did rain till later. Bonnie and Ken had to leave about 3:30 and on the way back to Harvey, Ernie and Noela drove up. It was nice to be able to talk with them a bit before we leave tomorrow. We said our good-byes to Bonnie and Ken because we might not get a chance to see them again until they get back from their trip out West in July. We decided to go right out to Sonny's for an early supper because we hadn't had any lunch. We had our usual. It was so yummy!

John's favorite... chopped brisket, baked beans,
potato and cornbread |
 |
| Cindy's favorite... sliced pork sandwich and fries |
When we got back we played Nerts and I got slaughtered again. Then we played Racko and you guessed it... the 3rd slaughter in one day. Nothing left to do but go to bed. John fell asleep and I did some reading.

These are 2 cormorant ducks getting their daily sprinkling
under the fountain at the entrance to Harbor Lakes.
They look like statues that are part of the fountain! |
