It was not quite the movie I expected, and I really don't know if I would actually recommend it. Saturday, I did nothing. I cleaned the living room, then just bummed around all day - watched Racing Stripes and Shall We Dance?. What else???? Oh, I also watched a little of the men's beach volleyball on TV. On Sunday, Jeremy and I woke up to go fishing. There was a lake Jeremy wanted to hike up to. So, we packed the gear and hopped in the car. The hike was marked moderate to easy. It definitely started out moderate - I thought my lungs were going to explode! We couldn't stop hiking or else we would be swarmed by mosquitos - absolutely swarmed!!! We sprayed on the OFF and kept on hiking. We passed a number of ponds and stopped when we reached the end of the trail. It was a pretty area. In the photo to the left you can see snow that has yet to melt, as well as a tiny Jeremy fishing on the bank. Later he put on his waders and was toward the middle of the lake. While
Jermey fished, I laid on a blanket and read a book I had brought along. We headed back after Jeremy caught this beautiful White Sucker fish. It had great big kissable lips, which is why Jeremy is puckering up in this picture. Our hike back was definitely long enough. It was about a 2 hour hike in and 1-1/2 hour back. (Side note: We realized when we got back to the car that we maybe didn't make it to Duck Lake, but a small lake about 5 minutes before it. What a bummer. Jeremy said it was okay though.)*
When we got back to the house we had our second to last house meeting. This is the one thing I
will not miss about group living. The meeting was short and quick. We went to Andy and Alice's house for dinner. Alice is our local leadership person. She and her husband are amazing people. They are both incredibly supportive. We have them over one week to eat supper; they have us over the next. It has been great. They make fantastic meals! On Sunday, we had boneless ribs (grilled) with roasted vegetables and blue cornbread. YUM! They leave on Friday for a visit to Ethiopia. I think it sounds very exciting. So this was our last meal with them before we leave, and that is sad. This is the only picture we have with them.
