Wednesday 6-28 A Wonderful Day

It was overcast most of the day and high humidity but it still got to the low 90's. We had a wonderful day.

The wind was blowing a little but it didn't stop us from going to the lake. We were a little sore from the water sports we did yesterday. We got to the lake at about 9:30 and the water wasn't glassy like yesterday. I picked Larry up on the dock and slowly went across the lake. The first thing we did was water ski and then we put in the surf board. After surfing we floated a little in the lake. Once again there wasn't a lot of people on the lake. As we were finishing up our wake surfing we saw three kayaks going down the lake. We had another super day at the lake.

When we got home we had lunch and then Larry went out in the garage to look at the boat's trailer jack. Earlier he thought he might be able to fix it but when he took the gear box apart he found out that the gears were shot. He was hoping to fix it so we wouldn't have to buy and modify a new jack but no such luck. 

Last week Larry had ordered four switches that work with the Alexa to turn on and off lights and ceiling fans. He received them a couple days ago so after working on the jack he decided to install the switches. He installed a couple of them in his workroom which is our third bedroom. Now his workroom can be controlled by the Alexa. He programmed Alexa to turn on and off all the lights in his workroom and to turn on and off the ceiling fan. After he finished his workroom he moved on to the dining room where he also installed two switches. He programmed Alexa to turn on and off the dining room light and ceiling fan. He also programmed Alexa to turn on and off all lights and ceiling fans in the kitchen, living room, dining room and workroom at the same time or individually. He thinks that he is finished installing switches in the house.

While Larry was installing the switches I took a nap and worked on my puzzle. 

In the evening we went to Allemande Hall to dance A with the TIPS Club using tapes. We had enough people for a square and a couple of extra men. While we were dancing one of the club callers came by to see how the tape dances were run. We had a fun night dancing with our friends.
