Hi Peeps...it's been awhile I know. I've had this post almost ready to go for quite some time, when I was in a better mood. I've had a sucky week. I'm not even going to talk about it! Here's the post.
On day three in Kentucky, it rained some more, off and on. I decided I was going to do what I planned on doing all along on this trip. So, I got my crocheting out, sat down by the pool, chatted and crocheted.
When you hear me talk about "the building", see the glimpse of that big screened in room in the woods down there (above pic), that's "the building." We spend most of our time in "the building."
And since our last visit, they have built a "new" building.
this is inside the new building.
My Shug sees how important it is to have a long counter top. I kept trying to tell him but he wasn't getting it, until he actually used it.
and Trent....well, he salted the fries!
I know...it's tough work making milkshakes.....
But look at these Happy faces!
(see our bedroom in the background of the "new" building)
Liz and Theresa and I were busy taking selfies for Facebook!
(Susie from She Junks.....I did not bring my whole family! Lol! But the thing is, these people are FRIENDS with My Shug and I, but they are FAMILY to my Sister. They are her cousin-in-laws! So my sis, her husband, and his Mom were there. My Sis's MIL and Liz are cousins. Got it? We all met when my Sis and Trent got married... and we became friends.)
Back to the story....
Truth is....the hamburgers and fries were made the second night we were there. The third night we had leftovers because we were drinking Sunset martinis!
The reason we had leftovers is because we spent an inordinate amount of time trying to get a good picture of the sunset martinis for Instagram.
Good grief...move the water bottle (I hear Downton Abbey did the same thing...a photo shoot with a water bottle left in the picture!)....ok lets try again....
Let's try without our hands in the picture...maybe just one....
Maybe from the top....noooooo....you can't see the sunset.....
And the winner is!!!!!!!
Then while sitting there drinking our sunset martinis (pineapple, vodka, grenadine, and an orange slice) somehow, my Sister and Jeff got into a discussion about how we should re-make the Abbey Road album cover!
As I sat there listening I realized this was a serious conversation and they decided we needed to practice.
We all lined up and marched around the entire building practicing. Liz was recording....
Then we got to the pool gate.....Jeff was leading at the time and didn't get the gate opened and we all started bunching up behind him laughing.
We turned around, and how we ended up with this photo shoot is beyond me.
But we took as many pictures of this as we did the martinis!
It's very difficult to get nine people to balance on one leg all at the same time.
So much for that idea, I think we finally gave up!
After the photo shoot....this little guy wanted us to play Arizona Rummy with him. Only he calls it Mississippi Rummy! And he keeps score in his head! So we had to ask him who was winning. He couldn't hold all of his cards in his hands so he put them on the chair and would go through them when it was his turn to play.
Next on the agenda...walking the plank.
and this was serious business as well!
I made it without falling off one time. That's it. Once.
Look how long it was though....we had to cross this bridge....
Anyway, after staying up late, playing games, singing off key and loud, dancing, and visiting, we went to bed, got up the next morning, ate breakfast and headed home.
Bye Bye Kentucky!I'm ready to go back.
Cindy Bee
