January 25, 2018

I have to say that January is going by pretty fast in spite of the fact that Michel was down with the flu/cold for about two weeks. His energy level was pretty low, so needless to say we didn't do very much. I'd go to the pool in the morning for water aerobics, but mostly we just hung out, did some reading, played some on the computer. Our first little 'outing' was to the neighbours' place. Two spaces down Liz and Phil (Kimberly, BC) hosted a happy hour complete with snacks and music. It was a good time and we met a few more people in this park.

(L to R - myself, Deb, Doreen, Tina)

Girls Day Out!! (last Thursday).
We shopped all day long. Had a good time, a good lunch and lots of chatter and laughter. Dog tired when we got home, but it was fun!










Today in the park was the 'annual' Memorial Bean Bag Baseball tournament.  Started by a long time winter resident of the park, the tradition is kept alive now in his honor. 

(that is me throwing my bean bags)

It is a very well attended event, I am sure most of the residents were here playing the game! The day started early - with a lunch of chili and hot 
dogs.  


Then teams were formed and the games began - Guys against the girls, two teams of each in a round robin sort of format. It was a very windy day and quite cold, but most people hung in there until the end. I have no idea who won, but I guess that doesn't matter, everyone had a good time.
