Monday Two Days of Having Fun

Having fun with friends

Sunday 6-10 Monthly DBD Dance

Today was the day of Jimmy Johnson's monthly DBD dance in Briarcliff, which is about 110 miles from our house. Before leaving I baked Hershey Reese's Peanut Butter Cup Bars for dessert. There were exactly enough people for two squares. We danced two two hour sessions and an hour in between for dinner. Jimmy did a super job of calling the dance and we had a great time. 

After the dance we didn't go home because we were invited to spend the night with Sharon and Gary in Marble Falls. On Thursday in Sun City we had talked with them about flying an Air Chair, they hadn't seen one before and wanted to play with one. Marble Falls was about a half hour away from Briarcliff. 

We got there about 7:30. They have a beautiful home on lake front property. We spent the evening touring their neighborhood and visiting.   

Monday 6-11 Hanging Out with Friends

We woke up to a beautiful day. Sharon made a huge breakfast, we usually just have a bowl of oatmeal but today we had scrambled eggs, bacon, hash browns and tortillas. It was delicious. 

After breakfast Sharon and Gary took us to town and Sharon gave us tour of the Marble Falls Museum. We learned about the history of Marble Falls. Years ago there were actually falls but the lake has covered them up. After our tour they drove us around town and talked about the buildings that were standing from the 1800's and built using Marble Falls Pink granite. 

When we got back to the house we launched their boat and went for a drive around the lake.They pointed out different things on the history of the lake and city. We had a very pleasant ride. 

At 2:00 7 more friends showed up for a barbecue and to have fun at the lake. Gary barbecued hamburgers and corn on the cob and the ladies brought side dishes. After lunch we all went for a swim then we loaded into the boat and went for a ride. During the ride Larry and I flew the Air Chair. Then Gary took the boat into a cove and we all went in for a dip.

When we got back to the house it was about 5:00. We changed clothes and danced "A" for two hours. We had enough people for one square and an extra couple. We had a great time dancing with friends.

After the dance we thanked Sharon and Gary for their hospitality and said good-bye to everyone.

By the time we got home we were tried. We relaxed for a bit before calling it a night. We had a outstanding day with friends.
