Celebrate Life!

Returning home from a wonderful Memorial Day week-end kinda puts a kink into things….Would have much preferred to remain in the peaceful domain of our Taylor Creek dock….reading my books and listening to tranquil music.
Life has interfered…..back to the ‘salt mines’……
All the nautical family and friends with which we shared our ‘good time’ returned home well fed for sure. Since the Bluegill fish were biting like crazy….everyone who went fishing had success. Eating fresh fish, fresh peas, homegrown tomatoes and many other wonderful home cooked dishes was a southern gourmet delight…
Celebrating three birthdays, Don, Sam and Charlie’s, was our excuse for a real good time…..Music, food, friends, and ’crazy-acting-fun-people’ who were our in-house/boat entertainment ….kept us laughing heartily…..
Our prim and proper…NOT….bankers, Sally and Bonnie, were truly a riot.
They earned every penny they were paid and MORE!
Of course some of us agree that we were a little short of ‘rum cake’!
Still think Bill got extra-special treatment from Pat and Kenneth!
Dockie had a job for the scuba team, Kurt and Bill.
Changing two props in mucky water was certainly a challenge…Even the heavy duty sledgehammer that Sam came up with didn’t complete the job. Only one prop was able to be changed….the other one refused to budge for the two muscle men involved. ‘To be continued’, says Dockie…

Having Bill and Susan join us was a true delight. They added so much to our serious fun….Sweet and gracious Susan, provided a very unique wine but I sure don’t want to be sitting by Sally when she orders it in a restaurant!
Experienced nautical Bill….almost sunk his boat right before our very eyes. Get him to tell you his side of the story!!!
Yet he redeemed himself with Kenneth’s air con repair and providing Annie P. with a $100 bill when needed…..
Sally’s granddaughter, Melissa, and her father, Gary, came by and she signed my CD of her music….That 13 year old young lady can certainly sing….She uses her gift to bless many people from singing the National Anthem at civic events to singing for terminally ill children.
Yep, she is my young ‘hero’.
Along with….Carla Maria…..Our whole clan went to her graduation on Wednesday night before going to Okeechobee…..we are so proud of our
Exotic creature….Carla….She certainly is our ‘baby doll’.
See family pictures on Link #1...AAA Blessings & Family Album.
So as you can see….The Good Life rolls on…..
Enjoy Yours!!!

P.S….I have other pictures to post in the A Fun Time Album as soon as Walker get them to me…Watch out, Sally!!!
