Hope that everyone enjoyed there day as much as we did. Cheri was up early this morning in fact she was up before me. I think my snoring woke her up; anyway she was working on her quilt. This morning Mike, Mary, Cheri and I went to Lakeland. Mike and I dropped the girls off at Jo Ann Fabrics and then Mike and I headed to Harbor freight for their 4th of July sale. I did buy a couple of things that I may use sometime down the road. Mike wanted to go to get one special tool that they had on sale and then after looking at he decided not to get it. It was around 11:45 am when we got home and was time to get ready to go down to the Rec hall for a potluck dinner. We had fried chicken and everyone brought a dish to pass. There were around 35 people and was a good time. We stayed and helped clean up and got home around 3:00 pm. Cheri and I decided to go see the 4:00 pm movie we were going to go to yesterday. It is White House Down. Well when we got to the theater parking lot it was almost full of cars and decided to skip the movie. We figured it would be very crowded and wouldn’t be able to get a good seat. It started raining again before we got back home and ended up getting ¾ inch of rain for the day. We didn’t go to watch any fireworks; the rain may have put a damper on it.

I went out early this morning to do some more washing on the 5th wheel. Yah I am done washing the 5th wheel!!(Look up stupid you still have the awning to wash) I guess that will get done another day. I went in and took my shower and got all cleaned up. Then I thought I better mow the lawns as it hadn’t started to rain. I got the lawns mowed and all the trimming done and everything put away just before it started to rain. Then it was time to take another shower, another two shower day. Cheri did her exercise class and is now working on her quilt project. I am done for the day, maybe a little reading and a nap. We decided to take in the 4:00 pm movie and were about ready to leave when we got company from across the street. We did go to Wal-Mart to pick up Grandma’s medicine and a few groceries. Cheri fixed some of our Alaskan Halibut for supper; don’t think we very much left. We have a road trip planned for tomorrow morning with Mike & Mary and Norm & Marlene. So we went to visit with them this evening to see what time we are going to leave. It was another wonderful day that God made for us.

We got more rain this morning and on and off the rest of the day. I went out and did some more washing on the 5th wheel. I did get a little damp from the showers but it felt good as it was so hot and humid, one more day of washing and that part will be done. Then I have the rest of the waxing to do. Cheri managed to get her exercise class in before it rained. I took my second shower this afternoon and then Cheri and I went to see the movie Man of Steel. A couple of people had told us how good it was. Well Cheri and I thought it was terrible. I knew it was going to be a far out movie but the whole movie could have been done in 30 minutes instead of 2 ½ hours, think we are too old for the computer generated parts. We still have a couple of more movies we want to go and see, so if it keeps raining we will go for another movie, thinking about White House Down. At 6:00 pm Cheri and I went down to the Rec hall to help set up tables for the Fourth of July potluck dinner. I think there will be somewhere around thirty five people. Cheri finished another quilt block this morning and now working on number three. We lost power early this evening for about an hour. We ended up getting just under a 1 ½ inches of rain today.

It seem like it was just the other day that I was saying I can’t believe it is the first of June and now here its July, how time flies by when you are on the downhill side of life. It was another rainy day. I need a day without rain so I can mow lawns and it doesn’t look good the rest of the week. I dropped Cheri off at the pool this morning before the rain started and took Grandma to the doctor so she could get her B-12 shot. When we were coming back into the park it was just starting to rain and Cheri was starting to walk home from the pool so my timing was good. This afternoon we had a few errands to run and then we went see the movie The Heat. It had an R rating but was much worse than that. If they would have cut out all the bad language it would have been a silent movie, even the music was bad. It was the worse Sandra Bullock movie we have seen and we like Sandra Bullock. Late this afternoon Cheri did some more work on her quilt project. Between rain showers we walked down to visit with the gang this evening.

We picked up Grandma at 9:00 am and headed to church. Pastor Dean’s message was on Love and was a continuing message from last week. It was a great series. Get your Bible out and read 1 Corinthians 13 (your lesson for the day). Just think how much better we all could be. After church seven of us went out for lunch at Golden Corral, for me it was dinner because I always eat too much when going there. We had rain off and on all day so it was a stay inside and be lazy day which wasn’t hard for me to do. I watched the NASCAR race that got rained out last night. Cheri worked on her quilt project.
