Posting pictures of the new Explorer. Had a great facetime session with Mike and family last night and got caught up with all their activities, happenings and statuses. Can't believe Elyse is learning to drive and investigating colleges. Visited Craig and Janet yesterday after golf.
Trip Log
September 24, 2016
Was in Jacksonville today for Alesa's dragon boat races. It was a very hot day and it wasn't a good day for winning but they did race well.

Alesa made the paper again. She's in the front. She is wearing a neck brace because when she bends over and lifts her head for long periods her neck gets very sore. So, again, better safe than sorry.
September 6, 2016
Craig and Janet were coming up on Friday to play pickleball but there was too much rain. On Saturday we were able to get in a round of golf with Connie since we were rained out on Monday. Craig and Janet came up for Labor Day and we invited Connie to play pickleball with us as well.
September 2, 2016
Our first hurricane and it went north of us and made landfall last night but it did spawn a tornado about 20 miles south of us. Little effect until the bands of rain hit us today. Not bad but very interesting.
August 23, 2016
Craig turned 65 last Friday so he and Janet came up Saturday so we could celebrate with pickleball, cake, ice cream and an apple pie. They did manage to beat us in a game of pickleball and we considered withholding cake and ice cream but we are good sports.
August 14, 2016
A normal golf Sunday except Alesa went to platform tennis boot camp instead so I invited Eugene Fales to join the foursome for the day. This was his first round of golf in The Villages, he did well and seemed to enjoy it.
August 13, 2016
Been a while but we have been busy with our normal daily activities in spite of the heat and humidity. We finally put up a nice trellis for the wisteria and the pineapples were looking ripe so Alesa harvested them today. Craig and Janet have been coming up on weekends to play pickleball.
July 31, 2016
Our A/C was fixed on Wednesday under warranty. Eugene and Connie Fales drove a U-Haul from Atlanta on Thursday and spent the night here before their closing on Friday. They spent Friday night here and had help unloading the truck yesterday.
July 24, 2016
Back to our normal routines. Swimming Friday, golfing Saturday and wore ourselves out today playing pickleball with Craig and Janet. Having trouble with the A/C but can still start it up manually. Should be fixed tomorrow under warranty.
