Saturday afternoon was not fun. A 3 hour long series of thunderstorms dump a lakeful of water on us. There's nothing like a drenching rain to find any house leaks you didn't know about.
This morning we ware amazed at just how much rain fell. This 5 gallon bucket was dry when the rain started!
In the evening I watch part two of the series Blue Planet II. I was inspired to use one of my Christmas gifts--do-it-yourself pencil eraser color blocks-- to recreate what I was seeing. After they were done, they had to be baked at 250d. for half an hour, then cooled. I was pretty pleased with my creations, and they really do erase pencil marks.
Without threatening weather, today was a day for fun activities. The pickleball crowd that's been showing up (20-30 people for the last three days) opted to do other things. The small group of about 10 people that showed up was there to have fun. Bloopers and mis-hits were greeted with jokes and laughter. Good shots were promptly complemented.
For afternoon fun Duane played table tennis and pool. I read a book, exchanged it at the library for another one or two, and walked the long way home around the block.
Only 5 days left at this park.
Louise and Duane
