08/08/16 - On 8/4, the crowd left to go swimming next door and I helped Mary Ann getting garden tea ready for brewing. Later, we had dinner and played some games. 8/5 - We left for Lewes Beach around 9:15am. The weather was very comfortable and everyone played in the water except for Christina and myself. We sat under the umbrellas. In the evening we had a great dinner of thinly sliced smoked beef brisket, potato salad, lettuce salad and pies for dessert. 8/6 - In the evening we had reservations for dinner in Annapolis, Maryland at The Melting Pot to celebrate Christina's 40th birthday. It was about an hour and quarter drive but a wonderful restaurant and we had such a good time. There was eleven of us. It was a great evening. 8/7 - Raph and Gina and family left around 8:40am for Ohio and Rachel left at 11:30am for Washington, D. C. so we just stayed home. In the evening, Christina and Jesse came over and we played some games. Today, I helped freeze 1000 ears of corn. It was a very organized operation and took about 6 hours. Off and on there were 12 of us helping in various capacities. The corn is in the freezer and everything is totally cleaned up. What an operation!! Jesse came over to help program some things on the computer and check and see if he can help with my surround sound that is not working. He was able to program the remote so now I only have to have one which is wonderful but still unable to get the surround sound. I really appreciate his help. Off to bed.
