The party was to run between 1 PM and 5 PM, and the weather was terrific. We started out to go to the marina at 2 PM. The walk is one that we've taken before, but the views never get old:
We could see lots of people and smoke from the barbecue fire as we got closer. The music was also loud as we entered the walkway to the marina:
It appeared to us that the level of the lake had risen substantially since we last visited about a month ago. It didn't take long to see where the action was and we went immediately to the food line:
The party was in full swing and Josie and I each picked up a burger with some chips and a brownie from the desert tray. We also had a beer that we bought at the small bar that was set up before the food line. We sat at one of the many tables that were there and visited with some nice folks from Bellingham, WA that were also staying at the resort.
The only complaint we had about the whole party was that the burgers, although appearing to be ready to serve, were very rare, and Josie even went back to get a second one after only eating half of her first burger. The second one wasn't any more done than the first, so she ended up eating about one burger from the two she picked up at the food station. It was still a nice setup and we had a good time while visiting the rental boat station and picking up all the information for future reference.
The walk was good for us and we were thankful for the beautiful, warm and calm day. We vowed to increase our exercise and to get onto a regular program, of some kind, after the first of the year. We are holding pretty close to our goals - weight wise - for the holiday period.
It's back to work for Josie today to start the final, big push for the busy week before Christmas...
