More Football and Another Happy Hour

John started the day watching another bowl game, but Linda had a different agenda.

We had some Christmas presents we needed to return, and Linda though this was a good day to do it.  So off we went with our receipts in our hand.  We had to go to TJ Maxx, Linda’s favorite store, and Target.  After these chores, we stopped at Lowes to pick up a new hummingbird feeder for our window.  The legs where the birds stand while they drink have broken off, so we wanted to replace them.

We even had a furry visitor.  IMG_1510

About 4:00pm we headed over to Bob & Maggie’s lot for Happy Hour.  We drove over in our golf cart! Our neighbor’s across from us, Ken & Peggy, bought a house in Sun City West.  They also bought a new golf cart.  So they left their old one for us to use and try to sell for them while we’re here.  How very nice! That’s the kind of people we meet here in Happy Trails.

We had a great time at Happy Hour, with great stories and good food and drinks.  As it got dark, it got chilly, so we headed for home for a nice bowl of soup for dinner.

Hopefully you have the feeders away from your walking path....all the mess....but it is fun to watch all God's Creatures! So is there a chance that you two will buy the cart....??? :-) But after all this eating, maybe you need to do the walking...HA!!! I know, how bad can a bowl of soup be for dinner....Glad you are keeping up the blog!
