Monday we greeted our friend Karen from Bellevue (OH). Karen is married to our good friend from tOSU, Dennis. We've always enjoyed their company. She's so much fun. We spent most of the (rainy, crappy) day catching each other up (she's not a Facebooker) since Bethany's wedding. Laughed. A lot. Wish we could have imported someone to be our fourth to play Euchre, that was the only thing missing. Lenny also came over and joined in the festivities.Tuesday, was a better day and we took a raft ride on the Ashtabula River. Followed it by a delish lunch at Briquettes Smokehouse on Bridge Street after a little ride around showing Karen our old house, Lenny's place and the Elks Club. We both had the pulled pork sandwich, it was excellent!
Thursday (July 4th) we had a surprise visit from a couple of our boating friends from the past (Dave & Carolyn). They both looked spectacular. Then, our friends Don and April came over. We've been friends for almost 30 years. Ate a bunch, drank too much. Laughed a lot. Got a river raft in. Finally didn't have rain until late at night.
No treatments or Doctor's appointments this coming week and we got an offer from Royal Caribbean for a free 1 night cruise on the Grandeur of the Seas redeployment after her fire. Going to do some serious driving, see Connie's parents, our hometown of Wilmington, our daughter and son-in-law, Baltimore, and much more. Will be blogging quite a bit next week.
