Thursday Morning Coffee Bump.

Have been able to enjoy the nice weather out at the lake. Bo has been hunting for creatures.

Cold weather coming here to Oklahoma once again next week. I'll bet it's really cold where you are.

We were on the bottom floor with the view of the pool right out our balcony.
The beach was not far from us.
The first pic was our building cept on the lower level.

Yes, 31 people all paid for by my father and mother in law.
Yet my mother in law died in May, she was only with us in spirit.
