Happy Birthday Don!

On November 14th, Don officially became old enough to collect Social Security! We spent the day with our friends, Glenda & Ray Roe. We had a great dinner of steak, salads and potatoes (don't ask about the squash that I forgot in the microwave)! For dessert we had carrot cake! We were also joined by friends of the Roe's, Donna & Al who joined us at the RV park in Shirley on Tuesday!

It didn't take us long to get acquainted with Donna & Al! We had them join us at the house for "happy hour" and also brought my mom along! After our happy hour...we all had dinner at Bentley's, a local restaurant!

Today, we once again went over to the house for happy hour, but we started by going to El Jefe's...for their all you can eat from 11-3! It was a little colder today so we had happy hour out on the "as of yet, uncompleted deck" (that doesn't make much sense does it)! Seems like you would want to be on a solid floor with some walls and windows instead of precariously perched on boards out in the elements! :-)

After that we stopped by the boat storage to show off the boat! The ladies took a quick glance and then headed to Dollar General for a quick look around!

Tomorrow, the Roe's and Donna & Al will head out. Glenda and Ray heading towards Las Vegas and Donna & Al to Texas. It's been a very quick visit but we were glad to be able to share our new adventure with them! I'm hoping that the next time they're through here that the house will be finished, but I'm NOT holding my breath! :-)

Happy Birthday Don..I'm amazed as to how many older friends we have. I know we have couple of your ones (like Vicki) but damn the rest are really getting old. I hope Marlene lives long enough to get Social Security, I'm a cradle robber you know. Come to think of it, so is Don.
