Another Monday in paradise, Tuscany that is.  Gang members wore red, white and blue in recognition of Memorial Day. Joe finally made an appearance on the bocce court and along with Sue proceeded to hand Bill and Jack another defeat. Some people are just natural athletes. Others aren't. Ruthye and Susan made greeting cards. Donna, Nancy and Lyona were hard at work at the jigsaw-puzzle station. Donna's cinnamon, cream cheese muffins were fantastic as was Harriet's pumpkin bread.  A good morning indeed! Check out the photos.

Monday, Monday.  Another good start to the week.  Sue and Adele scrapped greeting cards while Lyona and Ruthye started another jigsaw puzzle.  Brad introduced a European-styled board game and Joe and Leslie engaged in good-natured repartee.  Ruth Ann stopped by to say goodbye for the summer. She'll be back in November dragging her husband along with her. 

Laurie, our Property Manager, stopped by to see how we were doing and to offer any assistance we might need.  She received a round of applause from all present. We do appreciate her support and guidance. 

Next Monday is Memorial Day.  All agreed that we should meet and wear red, white and/or blue. 

Another fun morning.  Thanks, everybody!

Another enjoyable Monday morning.  We had 14 gang members show up. Harriett and Bill's granddaughter was hands down the cutest.  Sue got up at the crack of dawn to make Dove chocolate candies from scratch.  Sue, you're the best! Bill, still smarting from last weeks loss to the girls, left his bocce set at home. And, another jigsaw puzzle was completed, this one in record time. (It was only 500 pieces though.) When the tech support team can convert a cell phone video for viewing on-line, a clip of the puzzlers singing a victorious "We are the champions" will be posted.  Thanks, everybody.  It was fun!

Had a fun morning.  Thanks everybody!  Good food, good company. Even won a game of dominoes, my first win. Didn't fare so well at bocce, though. We guys were winning until Susan jumped in and made the winning toss. Way to go, Susan!
