Day one~ Thousand Islands

After a almost decent night of sleep, I woke up to watch the Chapel service online with Karin, Karen and John.  The service was great (aside from the computer screen freezing up every so often.)  There was a guest speaker, Robert Stearns.  He spoke from the book of Esther.  It was nice to be able to discuss the sermon with everyone while it was going on.  We had a few good laughs at the screen freezing up.
After the service we all ate breakfast and decided it would be a good idea to go swimming.  I am thankful we picked up a couple of pool noodles at Walmart last night.  It helps when you are in the water, since I could not touch the bottom.  Karen had her mask, snorkel and fins.  She was having a good time seeing stuff under water.  We were in the water for about 45 minutes.  The sun was shining and there was a nice breeze off the water to help dry our swimsuits. After a little while we did come in to make lunch and brought it back out to the dock.  
The sun made me tired so I came back inside to take a good nap.  It was nice to be able to relax and have nothing else to do.  When I woke up, I did my nails (something I haven't done in a long time) and my friend, Jeff called to see how we were doing.  
Jackie and Jim arrived around 6:30-7:00pm.  We unloaded Jackie's car, put all the food away and then we all sat down for dinner.  Karin baked chicken and we had fresh green beans with tuna salad and fruit.  Delicious!! 
About two hours earlier a major storm came through the area and while we were eating the sun came out and we were blessed with the sight of a beautiful rainbow.  Actually a double rainbow
God is so Good!!
Well, it is late and I have to go.  
Until next time
Blessings to you!
