Thursday or so ;>)

Well the day started out cooler, but turned out nice. Was supposed to rain, but never. We had to get up early and went for coffee & donuts this AM. Sat with the Coons and their entourage. They are pretty funny. Its an information sharing session for the upcoming week. The whole process is humorous, but you have to grow into it. A lot of time spent this AM describing the enhanced security system - they lock 2 of the 3 gates now, LOL! We have ordered our name badges, as they fine you 45 cents if you don't have one. We signed up for the next bus trip to Payton, its a casino run and they were excited because we are 'Newbies'; like I said you have to be here. I think Marg signed up to help with the big patio sale on Saturday, its like a park-wide garage sale, only the stuff is not as good, LOL! Marg was very busy, she has quite a social circle here. She went to spend time with Sheri and the neighbours and while I don't mean to dwell on it.... well one of the ladies here said people in this park are so great, you couldn't ask for a better group. I played pool and we had a road trip to Silverado. Those geezers are tough! I drew Luther for a partner, which was great as we play well together. The tables were totally different, they are 4 1/2 x 9 instead of 4x8, the pockets are smaller and they are faster. Anyway we were challenged, but my team won 2 of 3 games. Overall I think we won 10-8, close but a victory. This evening I broke with tradition and Marg & I went with Sue & Ron to bingo at the next park. He loves bingo, she doesn't, Marg likes it, I don't. Nice people. Oh, she is the one who talked Marg in to the Payton trip. We have plans to play cards with them. Oh yeh, nobody won, but I think someone said we were close again. Ron plays horseshoes, may join him as close counts for a lot more there, LOL! We just got confirmation that the Proulx's are booked, hooray for our side, it will be good. They are staying Sun City, so we will work out the details when they get here. The good news is that Cabellas is in the middle. Most of the park is dark by 10:00pm, but our neighbours Kenny & Dora from Kansas and us are always up till after midnight. May have to start staying up later so I can keep up with Richard. Happy birthday Anna!
