This is our last full day here. The week has gone by so quickly and as always I'm feeling a little sad that our idyllic time here is drawing to a close. But I've still got a great day to enjoy this little bit of paradise.
It's 8:00 and it is cool with not a cloud in the sky. The blue sky reflects into the water so we have a blue lake this morning. Last night was our first night without needing a fan and we actually wanted our blanket on us! A wonderful night's sleep.
I'm so excited for today. We have some friends coming out in the afternoon who work so very hard and are so very generous with us. We have convinced them to come for the afternoon and dinner so they can have some well-deserved down time. It's a lazy day again with reading my book and writing in my notebook. I did feel creative so I've made a marinade to soak the pork tenderloin in all day. The rest of the meal is easy. Baked potatoes and a salad.
Our friends arrive and we have, as always, a fantastically relaxed time together. When it comes time to put the pork on the BBQ, it smells delicious from the marinade. We get carried away visiting and before we know it the meat is slightly overcooked but still really good because of sitting in the marinade earlier. We enjoy our meal and continue to talk, laugh and enjoy. Before we know it, it's time for them to leave and get home. What a great last day we had!!!
I spend the evening packing up the dry goods into our bags and having some things ready to go for packing the car in the morning. Off to sleep we go and sleep well we do. Again, it is cool and lovely weather!
