Surprise

Hazel and Dorothy
Had a lovely surprise at coffee this morning.  A great group came in and the tables were humming. 
Dorothy came to visit with all her old friends of the Village.  It is surprising how we all change and some still look the same. It was nice to see Dorothy for a few moments and look through her birthday book. She will be around for another week or so.  If you see her be sure to stop and chat for a moment.
We had other guests to make the table seem full once again.  Thanks Pat for setting up the coffee hour....

And we have a winner

Greg G's race car
Lew and June G's son Greg just had a successful week-end at the Road Atlanta race track.  He came in first both days in his class, this being his first time of racing at that track.
He crewed for his dad when Lew raced there 32 years ago.  This is such a fun time for amateur racers.
I know Lew and June are very proud of their son and we want them to know we all are too....

Hazel has let us know that she has been on the run lately with family and what they have been doing.  Her grandson was here for a few days and they did a little fishing in our lake and waited for the rain to stop so they could use our pool.  Next they decided to head to Orlando for some more excitement  but Hazel opted to stay home as she is having a surprise visitor this week.  Let us know how that comes out...  Good to see Hazel sooooo busy..

I chatted with several people who attended the Can-Am open 5th Annual International golf tournament and it seems they all enjoyed the time spent with each other.  The wind was terrific and it did things to those golf balls and to hair styles that had them scrambling.  Many thanks to those who joined in to make the day memorable.  Not sure who came out the big winner except it sounded like everyone was a winner..  GOOD LUCK next year
I have  the captains for the Canadian team and they are Tucker and Andrea L.  The captains for the American Team is Jack Y. and John G.
 The american team
The Canadian Team
We want to acknowledge the fine job that was done with these 100 or so golfers who spent the day together.
