It is All About Food

 

After breakfast and leisurely morning we headed into town to dink a bit.



This is a new mural in a small public park.


We stopped in a local Laundromat.  We had heard that they had named all the washer and driers funny names.  We took pictures of a few of the names.  Cute.

We stopped in my favorite art store.  

As we were walking we passed a place that they were painting a sign to thank the fire fighters.  Ely really rallied to support the firefighters.  Kind of like the play "Come From Away."  We were asked to sign it and we had our picture taken.


Jim Brandenburg is a famous photographer around here.  I took this picture for you, Sharon - bicycles and doors.


We went to my favorite store, Mealeys.  

Then it was time to head back for lunch.  Right after lunch we headed to Bev and Dan Johnson's to play Wingspan.  

It is a cute house.


Jeanne and Bev were setting up Wingspan

Well, I didn't play.  They played 2 games.  Of course, they had nibbles out and we had wine. I took a walk while they were playing. 



Then we headed to a party of Jay's golf buddies.  It has grown into quite a group.  Jeanne joins them for their weekly get-togethers.  But this time it was a larger group. Jeanne & Jay's neighbors, JoJo and Kevin, had been part of this group and they moved away.  They were back in town for a visit. 

Michelle and David's gorgeous house by the lake.

The tree behind reflected in the glass.  Jeanne thought it looked like a cinnamon stick, someone else thought that it looked like something nasty.

Their 2 dogs were well behaved but they did think that everyone should feed them.

What an amazing spread.  And so the eating continued.

They wanted to take a group photo.  I offered to take the pictures.  I took a ton of them.  The last one they included me.  They were a very warm and welcoming group.
