Halloween at Sandpipers Resort, 2014

Just got back from our appearance at the party....we are not hermits after all...who knew?
 
Not a huge turnout but the costumes were great....a historical/artsy/literary theme. 
We left a little early as my girdle was riding up.  Don't you just hate it when that happens?
 
I was a Pharo (or feral) cat...depends on pronunciation)
 
 
Jim was a pirate...maybe Pirate of Penance?

On our Way Home...

Holy moly, what a summer.
  Back in August Jim and I headed north looking for cooler weather, maybe some rain. Found it in spades!
 
 We stayed a few days at the Coushatta Casino in Kinder, La...I won a bunch of moola in a slot tourney and got comped for our RV site.
 
Then we headed north...did the Natchez Trace, Nashville, Caves of Kentucky...great fun. 
 
 Spent several days with Bob & Bernie at their terrific house.  Then on to Dr. Bob &  Catherine in Peru, In. 
 
He saw the sore on my nose, had a fit, and fixed me up with his dermatologist, got a biopsy...cancer!
 
Surgery in Indianapolis with recovery time at Bob & Cath's....nice to know a doctor! (side trip to northern Michigan while awaiting my surgery date)
 
After a few weeks we headed south, spending several days at that casino where we started....I won another slot tourney, got comped again! Boyoboy, just love that!
 
Home tomorrow...home...love that word.
Home.

Books!

Just a reminder to book lovers! 
 
The Informal Book Club will meet Wed., Oct. 15, at 7:00 p.m. in Flip Flopz. 
 
You don't have to bring anything besides yourself and the book(s) you have read or are reading. 
 
 Always an interesting discussion.

Invite from Annie!

Hi Guys!

This is an opportunity some SPR's or friends may want to take advantage.  Our church has a new grand piano which was purchased with the intention of the community enjoying beautiful music.  If you are so inclined, it would be nice to "spread the word".  Thanks!
Hugs!
Annie
