Hello Gorgeous

This time of year, the azaleas are a-bloomin', and they are gorgeous! Here are a few...




Dorothy, Linda, Carol, Anne and Arleen enjoy a lovely spring day. That's a bougainvillea behind them. It's quite beautiful this year!

Ice Cream At The Lake

We're giving a big shout-out and thank you to Jerry, Aggie, Sally and Sandy for hosting a delicious ice cream and cake party at the lake. We were served chocolate and vanilla ice cream, brownies, Texas sheet cake and various toppings. Did I mention homemade??? Oh yes, homemade! Are we lucky or what!
 Old friends Jerry Breuel and Aggie Siewert serving the delicious homemade ice cream.

Our Science Guy

Oh yes, we have our own "Science Guy." Tom Smiley, retired science teacher, agreed to entertain us after a recent Activities Club Potluck. He was great - and we all learned stuff!

Bocci Ball Tournament

March 8 was a perfectly gorgeous day for a Bocci Ball Tournament!
 Marie took charge of grilling the hotdogs - which were delicious! 
 Angie is watching over the games.
 So glad Jerry could stop by!
 Coach Firestone is in charge.
 Ever played bocci ball? The game dates back to the Roman Empire. First you toss the little white ball (called the "jack"), and it must go past the middle line. Then players toss their balls to see who comes closest to the jack while obeying a few other rules. Team with their colored ball closest to the jack scores points for each round. It's a lot of fun. 
Winners this year were (l to r) second place team Chris Hurst and Mary Wharton; first place team Jim Sellards and Jennifer McKaufsky; and third place team Barbara Viele and Skip Wilson.
