And on the weekend...

This past weekend we needed to do something different and relaxing--because it was very warm (like 96 degrees!)-- so we called up Becky and invited her to go with us to the beach, where we knew it was a bit cooler.

It was indeed cooler, and about a million others thought so, too!
This turned out to be the coolest place to hang out!
These two had a great time playing in the water.
We enjoyed a picnic on the beach...
...and afterwards a Coldstone treat!
On Sunday afternoon, we went to the annual classic car show here in town.
One of our friends had entered (and won first prize!), this vintage Harley-Davidson.
so many cars to seebeautiful interiorsOur friend Bill had also entered this classic Austin Cooper
The boys had to take it for a little ride, of course!
Meanwhile, off to the side, this group of ladies and gents, dressed in costumes of several different eras, were enjoying a full-course elegant dinner, (complete with crumpets and scones!) and served by a very attentive young man who was acting as their butler.
After the meal, we met this newlywed couple who wanted to use Bill's motorcycle for a photo op.

On Monday evening, M&B invited us over for BBQ supper and a movie date!
Guess what movie we went to see???? We highly recommend this one!

Oh, what fun you've had! I'm looking forward to joining in on it VERY SOON! And, since I'll be only two miles to the beach, we can park at my place and enjoy a nice walk!

Looks like a wonderful day at the beach on a hot day! The car show looked like Jim was enjoying every minute of it. Glad M&B live close enough to enjoy memorable times together.

Oh, I miss going to old car shows like we did when I was a kid. Thanks for bringing back great memories.
