Relaxing on the Lake

Sunday afternoon, we attended an annual gathering at our friends' lake house property. The purpose is for various scattered members of our denomination (which tends to have small churches) in the area, to join together for fellowship and friendship. It's always fun, and the kids can run and jump off the pier into the lake as much as they want.

Here's a generation gap for you :) Our host visits with a young guest.
My friend Patty enjoys some lovin' from her granddaughter. As soon as she realized I was taking her picture, she gave me some warm eyes :) Penny the poodle enjoyed herself too.
In mid-afternoon the skies darkened, and wind whirled, and a few drops fell, but there was no storm -- only a lovely drop in temperature! It was an almost perfect afternoon. We ate hot dogs, chips, watermelon and dessert.
