Vacationing in Our Own Back Yard

Yesterday Carl and his best friend, Bill, played their weekly golf game at a beautiful course about 30 minutes west of where we live. Bill's wife (and my best friend), Susan, and I decided to go with them and lay by the pool. The pool area is gorgeous: surrounded by huge oak trees and beautifully appointed. We had the pool to ourselves, there was a gentle breeze blowing, and it was like being on an island somewhere far, far away.

We read our books, talked, snacked on mini-corn dogs and played two rounds of Trivial Pursuit (both of which I lost by 1 pie).

It was relaxing and very enjoyable girlfriend time.
