Mark has been a good sport learning to play 4 handed Cribbage.  Wednesday night at Bear's Lair, we were all tired but decided to play "to give our brains a workout". Well it was quite a workout. Wayne gave Mark, (his partner) a monologue of how to prevent Sue and Julie from pegging. Julie, knowing how Mark absorbs instructions, wasn't surprised when Mark played a card taking the round to 21. Wayne freaked ... Sue played a face card and made it 31 for 2. Lots of laughs!  Mark had heard "blah blah blah 15 21 31".  Haha. So, we now have our own Crib board at Chippy's Hollow to practice on. 

Today, Wayne and Mark are going to Falcon Lake for fuel and burgers at Bob's while Sue and Julie are going with Rose to Lake of the Woods Brewery for lunch then shopping. 

Lunch was very good ... All of us bought something in town and so supported the local economy. 

Two Blue Jays came to dine at the old stump outside Bear's Lair kitchen window. Wayne tried to get a pic of two large does on their driveway, but no luck. 

Dinner this evening was fish, roasted veggies and leftover rice or spaghetti. We sat around the new (comfortable) dining room table and gabbed. Early to bed this evening; everyone was tired.
