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

Ladies' Group Christmas party

Tonight was our Ladies' Group party tonight, the very earliest it could be in the season. What great fun we had. The food tables were laden with trays and dishes of food, oh my! There were 26 ladies in attendance, some for the first time, which was great. After we ate, Terri T. got us started playing Bunco, most of us new to the game. She and OJ, her lady friend, were most helpful in showing us the ropes.

After we played one full round of Bunco, we did our gift exchange using a poem Janet brought. We had to go through some hoops in order to end up with a gift, not our usual Chinese Fire Drill-style. She sure put us through our paces! Such a good night and great fun with our group...
