Monday: A GREAT day.........!!!!!

A great night of sleeping back in TheHowserHouse, some wonderful Fr. Roast coffee as we overlooked the full river rushing by the rear of the rv......and then soon we were off for some visiting.

We went to Linn Creek to see my sister and my great neice and just a marvelous visit!!!! We hadn't been together since her wedding in May.....and sitting on their newly covered porch in front of their newly re-framed and sided home.....it turned out to be a super late morning visit!!!!
Soooo good to see her again!!!!

Then early afternoon we drove over to the western side of the Lake....and went to see Shirley and Ron......friends of ours from the RGV who have a stunning home on the Lake shore. WOW....they have this great Margarita machine and when we arrived it was sloshing around mixing up some soon-to-be-consumed top drinks! We took a tour of their beautiful home....and then we were off with them to a near-by marina where we joined their friend on his 51 foot yacht.

Soon the Margaritas were being enjoyed as we prepared to leave the marina and cruise up the Lake to a lake-side restaurant for a late afternoon lunch.....wow, that is a LOT of "l's" in one sentence....haha. We took a tour of the yacht....and yes, a tour this boat was necessary. It has two bedrooms, two bathrooms, living room and galley, plus tons of room up on top for lots of friends to enjoy the views of the Lake.

Before long....and after a couple of Margaritas, we were on our way. Great fun.....many laughs....and lots of conversation was sprinkled in between those great drinks. Arriving at the marina at Capt. Ron's great restaurant and bar......and we all enjoyed some super sandwiches.....of which 4 of the 5 were HUGE, HUGE pork tenderloins. WOW....such a delicious choice!!!!!

Later, we re-boarded and were soon off down the Lake for the marina where the yacht is moored. It was an incredible afternoon and early evening........and our thanks go to Shirley and Ron for seeing that we had such a great time while visiting them!!!! Can't wait until we are all down in the RGV again....they are going in November, and then we will be there the first week of January. Good times are coming........!!!!!!!!!!!!

A great day......and more to come this week.....and without a doubt.....

LIFE IS INCREDIBLY GREAT!!!!!.....And, I hope it is for all of you, also!!!!
