Started the day, as always, enjoying a couple of mugs of coffee and watching the dark clouds that eventually brought the rain. Not complaining because yesterday, Christmas, came with blue skies and warmish temperatures.
Spent some time catching up. Catching up with replies to comments made on our blog. (I really try to do my best to always reply to each and every comment.) Then catching up with the blogs we follow. (We always enjoy reading what everyone else is up to.) Plus there were wonderful Merry Christmas wishes on Facebook to answer. All the while still listening to Christmas music.
Tom took off to shoot some pool after eating a late breakfast and I just took care of some of those small chores around here and continued reading blogs in between.
Around 3 o'clock we grabbed some drinks and headed over to Patsy and Bill's for Happy Hour. Earlier in the day they had offered to host inside their lovely home and since the whole gang, JoAnne, Bob, Cheryl, Dave, Kim, Ken, Gayle, John plus Tom and I showed up I would say the consensus was that we all agreed it was a good idea. Patsy decided to mix things up, after we had been doing the usual chatting for a bit, she started passing out numbered sheets of paper and pens, us ladies had a feeling we were going to play what we all know as a "shower" game. She had found an RV version of Family Feud. There may have been a few "mandatory" moans and groans but in no time we were all laughing and enjoying the fun. In the end finding out what the answers of those surveyed was the most interesting part of the game. (I am still not convinced those surveyed had ever been tenting in their life...lol) In the end JoAnne left with bragging rights for coming up with the most points.

I was thinking as we walked back that I needed to pay attention to the sunset tonight then I got distracted and the next thing I noticed was the absence of light in the sky.
We have really enjoyed our time here at Pilot Knob. So much so that we decided to extend our time here for another week. When we leave it will 2020 and it is hard to believe another year has flown by.
We are so glad you stopped by!
If you have time to leave a comment we would enjoy hearing from you.
There's one at every party :)) that brings out "the game". Sounds like you two are really enjoying the holidays there. Glad you're staying longer and why not as George would say.
ReplyDeleteWe are truly enjoying our time here and the best thing about this lifestyle we can change plans anytime we want because we can so "why not".
DeleteA fun time was had by all by the sounds of it. Enjoy your extended stay!
ReplyDeleteThe laughter inside during that game proved how much fun it was.
DeleteLike Doug said "What's the Rush".
ReplyDeleteBe Safe and Enjoy the stay.
It's about time.
The best thing about this lifestyle, we can change "plans" anytime we feel like it.
DeleteI have to admit I'm not a game player, but it sounds like you all had fun. Seems this year has flown by, so take your time and enjoy every day.
ReplyDeleteThere were some "groans" but in the end it was fun. You are so right time is going by way to fast not to enjoy the moments as they come.
