I didn't bring enough library books, only 7 and even though I tried to stretch them out, they are finished. I found the AD Chronicles by Bodie & Brock Thoene at the Alpha Park Library. The first of the series was already checked out but got the next 7 and can hardly wait to read the first one, then continue with the 9th when home.
Today was beautiful, sunny, warm, low humidity and just plain pleasant. Mark and I went on a hike through a nature preserve just down the road from us. We saw 2 deer up close and another bounding through the woods. On the way back as we were walking by the side of the road we came to bushes and bushes of black raspberries. Of course we needed to take a berry break. Later Mark went back and picked a bowl full for our breakfast tomorrow. The kids started at the pool, then let me watch the grandkids while they walked to the dunes, climbed them to the top and ran down them. The dunes here are very steep.
If you look at the boats in Lake Michigan below Ben, it shows how steep and high these dunes are:
Below is Sarah at the top of the dunes:
Rhoda took David & Stephanie along with Phil & Anna's pictures at the top:
After dinner we drove into Holland for ice cream and fudge and met Ray and Marcia Bower, who just happened to be there at the same time with the same craving for ice cream. We had a nice visit before leaving for Walmart for more groceries. With 10 adults and 3 little ones we seem to need to go shopping every day. Wouldn't you know, Marcia and Ray ended up there also.
Once home each person needed to try all three flavors of fudge with a good cup of decaf coffee. What a great end to a good day.
