Wednesday, A Week of Happenings

I will start by saying we are both well and very excited about leaving NC.  It is also a sad time for me, leaving Jacki and Geoff and all their babies. And all our friends also. Jacki and Geoff are planning on visiting us at Christmas or near then.  And that in itself is super duper exhilarating. 

Tim's last dr appointment is next Tuesday.  Yahoooooo!  He keeps counting the days, 6 more.  The dr will activate Tim's device and barring any complications, that will be it.  We will get up the next morning and hit the blacktop, departing to Daytona Beach for the month of November.  I plan a quick trip to Ohio during that time.  Brother Danny will also be visiting Ohio then.  It's been way over a year and a half since we have been together.  I see sleepless nights, but wonderful times ahead.  I will also get to see Gus, great grandson, for the first time.  He is four months old now.  Again wonderful times.  Of course being with all the rest of my family there will also be wonderful.  Don't want to leave anyone out.  That means you too, DAD!

I will let some photos tell, the rest of the story, from this previous week.  Enjoy...

                                 A view of Lake Norman early one morning during my walk

                                                     A beautiful flock of Canada Geese

                                                              Glorious morning skies

                                              This great blue heron is a daily visitor here
                                                           Named him King Charles
                                                               He is soooo beautiful
                                                         He is also looking for breakfast
                                                              Check this out carefully

                                                         King Charles diving into the lake

                               Look closely, Charles is out of the water, starting his flight
                              If you click on the pic, to the left of his head, check out the fish's tail
                                                                     AWESOME...

                                          A chili pot luck dinner last night here at the park
                                                  Saying farewell to summer workampers
                                                          Introducing winter workampers
                                    Yummmmmmy chili and even yummmmmmier desserts
                                                     And a great time was had by all

                                            And again, Tim in the red shirt and crazy hat

                                                                     One last group

                               Had lunch today and a wonderful visit with my friend Melody
                                                         I know, we are a little blurry

                                                           This is the wind blown look
                                              Melody bought our first home on Ingleside



That's my wonderful week, in a nut shell


Life is good
