A Busy Kayak Morning |
I watched some futbol (soccer), took a nap and woke up strangely energetic despite the heat. So I got out my bike, pumped up the tires, put it in my Pilot and drove off to Bemus for a ride. I was gone about an hour, my usual ride, from the bridge, to Bemus, through Long Point Park, to the end, and back. It was a busy day in Bemus, lots of people and cars, the new Ellicottville Brewery's porch was packed with people, enjoying a brew, the view, the sun. When I biked out to Long Point, at least 50 boats were anchored together in the bay, drinking beer, wading in the water, playing their music. Thank goodness they are far enough away that we cannot see or hear them. I have never seen so many boats anchored in the bay and I have to say, the lake was as busy as most holidays, as if everyone had decided to take their boats out because of the sun and warm weather.
Around 5:30, we walked over to the Woodlawn neighborhood right of way, for our first of three gatherings. Each family brings their own drink and an appetizer, and we socialize from 5:00-7:00, coming and leaving whenever we want. It's fun to see the neighbors who have been gone most of the winter, to catch up, and enjoy the afternoon. We had about 30 people, not as many as usual because of previous commitments. We went home around 7:30, both of us extremely tired for some reason and hardly had enough energy to make dinner, a stir fry of leftovers. We shouldn't have made it because once I was done, it looked like dog food though it didn't taste like it...close though. We watched the OJ documentary before going up to bed, hoping for a good night's sleep.
And we would like to congratulate our daughter Beth and her husband, Ramiro, on their 25th anniversary, a few days late but better than never,
