Monday - December 30

 Oh I love getting the mail these days (actually about once a week since we use a mail forwarding service) - bunch of cards/letters/pics today - happy news and sad news hearing what family and friends are dealing with since we last connected.

The day started out gloomy, but the sun came out around 10 and it was very warm and pleasant.   We said good bye to Ann and Duaine who headed north for several visits with friends.    We will miss them.

I played canasta and Lydia, Peggy and I beat Denise, Beth and Vicki + won the extra game just for fun.   Susan gave me a ride home in her golf cart and after lunch I got back to the cards.

Buddy and JoAnn arrived shortly after noon from NC.....sooo good to see them.  JoAnn's recovery from recent knee replacement is going well, but that's a LOT of sitting in the RV for 3 days of travel.

Buddy wanted to eat at the Boathouse tonight and asked us to join them.    So lots of fun catching up over a good meal on a nice evening.   So happy they are back here at CT.

Liam and Connor have been in Nashville the past few days for the Iowa/Mizzou game this afternoon,   Oh my.......a heartbreaking loss for the Hawkeyes to the Tigers 27-24.    Watched the end of the game on the big screen at the Boathouse.
