The quiet life...

This morning I was awake early (a far to common ocurance ) awaiting the sunrise. It was a beautiful morning , the water like shimmering glass with a dense fog hanging across the marina shrouding the boats in an eerie cloud of white. As the sun began to rise so did the fog and ever so slowly the boats appeared ,tied to their docks , unwavering in the stillness of the morning. Occasionally a fish jumps making a circle of ripples that marks the spot. In the early morning light the sun starts to put its golden glow on the world. A blessing to wake up to for sure!

The past week was a windy one with a bit of rain thrown in. I did manage morning pool exercises all but one day but afternoon swims were limited. We have seen the arrival of even more northerners and it has been great to catch up with everyone. This week was "Why not Wednesday" with a large turnout at the clubhouse for food and drinks. The chatter and the laughter rang out loud and clear as stories and jokes were shared. This years lineup for social activities looks great with the promise of good times!  Friday was a wonder fish supper out with our friends Karen and Terrry from Buffalo followed by a rousing game of "battle of the sexes" . If laughter is good medicine then we all had a healthy dose. 

Stay warm, safe and well everyone!
