Friday - August 15

 Good sunny Friday morning - today is the Feast of the Assumption of our Blessed Virgin Mary.    We went to 8:30 Mass with Father Jonathan and so enjoyed singing all those beautiful songs honoring Mary and remembering from way back in my childhood.

Of course the bugs were back this morning - ole Charlotte sure does spin some awesome webs overnight, but I really prefer her not to visit Catrina along with those friendly spiders and their bugie friends!  😖

Stopped at Coffee Express for some coffee to go and on home for breakfast.    We took Catrina over for a pump out and later Dave brought the fuel truck to us for diesel on Catrina.   We're planning a last little getaway next week to Vermilion for a few days.

Luke is keeping busy mowing lawns, pressure washing neighbor's rocks, etc.    Good to keep these kiddos busy and make some $.    He and Maeve don't start school till September 2nd.

Today Mark worked on Catrina with the Starlink and hiding wires....quite the job but looks real nice.

We had heard about Rich's, a small store with a bit of everything, but specializing in chicken and gets rave reviews.  They also have perch, walleye, etc. all made fresh and ready to go.   None of our boat friends had been there???   So tonight we went with the plan to get some fried chicken, deli items, etc.    But we saw their chicken pot pies under the heat lamp and I remembered, they were rated very high, too.    So, one pot pie, 2 chicken breasts, macaroni and potato salad later, we were outta there.   WOW....really good stuff and so close!    We tried the chicken, too -  so moist and flavorful.  Tomorrow's lunch!

Dennis and Teri are here tonight for the weekend - other boat sisters, Donna and Chris are coming tomorrow.    Yay.....

Enjoy your weekend!
