Saturday, Another Wonder Day

Hi y'all, what a beautiful day here in sunny NC.  Looking around you see lots of spring green and many flowers and azalea bushes sporting their bright, cheery colors.  When we arrived here about 4 weeks ago, gazing over the lake, the many trees were still barren.  Not any more.  They are now full and bushy and in many shades of green.  Awesome is the best word I can use.

Will have to say the highlight of my day was a visit from Jacki and Geoff.  They came to show us her new car...an ice blue mini cooper.  It is so cute.  Seeing Jacki stand next to it, a perfect match.  Two cutie pies.  The car fits her perfectly.  Jacki's babies outgrew her Miata.  With two bigger dogs, Rocky who is a mix... English bulldog and boxer, and Maggi, a rottweiler, Jacki can lay the back seat down and there is still room for the 3 other little ones. Having your babies happy, make you happy also.

                             It has white leather seats and the dash reminds me of a plane's cockpit


The rest of the day was also a fun day.  Quick trip to Denver Walmart for meds.  Another quicky stop at Food Lion for some burgers and buns.  Ran into Wanda, a Rock Springs cafeteria worker, and it was great chatting with her.  I love being back HOME.  Made plans for Tuesday lunch with other retirees from The Rock.  Can't wait.  Another friend Kathy, sent prom pics of son, Coleman.  How fast they grow up.  He is such a gentleman now.  Worked some in the office here, and drove the golf cart around.  Spent some afternoon time with Wanda, a fellow camper.  And get this, she and her husband, L are from our hometown in Ohio.  It is such a small world.  They are a bit younger than us.  Wanda is a hoot, so much fun to be with.  I will introduce her tomorrow.  I saw a pic somewhere of a piece of cheesecake with caramel and walnut topping placed on a bed of drizzled chocolate.  Beautiful picture, loved it.  So I mimicked it.  Mine turned out  just as awesome.  Beautiful and delish.  So I shared my masterpiece with Wanda and "L".  I felt like a real chef.  Even though it was soooo easy.  Still gave me that warm and fuzzy feeling.  Doesn't take a lot to thrill me.  There was a sentence on one of my morning reads a couple days go...Even the most ordinary days should be treasured like precious jewels.  And I usually can find a treasure on the ordinary days.

Well guys, that's my Saturday.   Hoping your day was a JEWEL!


Life is good
God is great
Nite all
