10/17/16 - 10/14, Daniel and Mary Ann had invited friends and family for the evening to enjoy a bonfire, roast hot dogs, a potluck and end the evening with a hay ride. I have been told there were about 65 in attendance.  The food was set up on the side of the bonfire and the picnic tables were around the bonfire.  Of course, I was sitting in my chair as close to the fire as possible with coat, hat and gloves to stay warm.  It was a great evening even tho it was rather cold.  On of the individuals in attendance was from Virginia and I know her well so we had a very nice time.  The gal (Roxanne and her aunt Esther) also had rented a beach house for the weekend.  A picture of the beginning of the bonfire:

10/15 - It is Mary Ann's birthday, son Lem and wife Jessica stopped by with also Jessica's mother Lynn, then Mary Ann had friends that stopped by for a visit that also were from Virginia.  I had an invitation to go to the beach house and visit with Roxanne and Aunt Esther.  It was a very nice beach house and a beautiful view of the bay.  Since it was almost a full moon, I was able to capture this picture:

We also went out for pizza (Grotto's).  It was delicious.  I had a very nice evening.

10/16 - Went to church and they had a potluck since it was appreciation day for the leadership team.  They had several different soups, salad and dessert.  Otherwise, the day was quiet.
