Tuesday - May 12

Cloudy and cool.     Mark went to Morganton to pick up order from WalMart (meant to pick up later in the week, but pushed the wrong button)!!!   Then treated us to breakfast sandwiches from McDonald's

I watched 2 episodes and at 10:15 the lights went out - no power and we heard it could be out for 4 hours!   But fortunately that was not the case and 45 minutes later, we were back in business!

We drove to Lake James State Park (about a mile away) this afternoon - it has been closed throughout "rona" and it and other state parks opened this past Friday.   It is HUGE with many trails and thru the internet we could see which ones were easy, moderate, difficult, which were just for mountain biking, walking, etc.    We chose a moderate (blue) route and it was quite pleasant and a lot of along the water.

Lots of these pretty pink blossoms in the woods today 

White blossoms

 And beautiful views of Lake James 
Mark's thighs are really sore (from all the up and down with the tires yesterday), but he was a trooper and hung in there for our 3.6 mile hike!

Fun Zoom session with Claire and Kathy.  Nachos for supper.....a good day for sure!

Tomorrow night is Connor's 8th grade graduation - we'll be watching (Facebook or YouTube!)🎓


The Blues flew over Chicago today

At least 2x a week, fighter jets fly over the lake - love the roar of those engines!!!
Pretty pink sky tonight!
