No longer on the river and, again, an empty nester. Back to living on Fleming Island and making some more friends!

LWMS Rally today

This morning I had to get up VERY early in order to be at church by 6:30 for our long car ride to New Hope Lutheran Church in West Melbourne, FL. Judy C. was our driver, with Betty riding shotgun, Janet and me in the second row, with Esther and Nancy in the back row. The last two ladies are from our sister congregation, Victory. Our ride was expected to be about 3 hours and we made it in good time, with only one stop on the way down, and one stop on our return. Janet, a 'needy' passenger, must have fountain sodas, though Judy and I would have shared our cans with her. She makes us laugh, that's for sure!
Janet, Judy, Betty, Esther, and Nancy discussing the upcoming Rally schedule. GS is hosting in Fall of 2014...I wonder if our renovations will be done by then!
This one is Jennifer posing with Janice, both of whom are friends on Facebook as well as in the flesh. Jennifer used to be a member of GS, and Janice I know through LWMS and have attended a women's retreat which she conducted years ago. 
Jennifer being silly with an orange in her teeth!
This is Carolyn (standing) talking with two ladies at the Rally. The lady in purple, Marge, was with Carolyn at the National LWMS Convention

When Janice and I were talking, she said to me, "I enjoy your postings everyday---sounds like you have so much fun!" I do, or at least I used to...Nah, I can still have fun even after pool season has ended. I just have to wear my clothing these days!
