LAILA AT THE LAKE



We picked up our Grand Daughter Laila, yesterday afternoon in Buckeye, where we met Marc late in the afternoon. Chandra has been a little under the weather, and is trying to kick the bug before she and Marc fly to Dallas for the race this Sat. Fortunately, Laila hasn't caught it, and hopefully by the time Mom & Dad get home, everyone will be healthy. By the time we got home, it was just about bedtime, not only for Laila, but also for Grandpa. This morning I got a polite request for breakfast pancakes, so after eating a couple of flapjacks, and a morning bath, Laila helped Grandma make some delicious chocolate chip cookies. Then, it was off to the park near London Bridge for a picnic lunch (sort of), and some play time on the playground equipment. The weather has been perfect, topping out today at 88 degrees, with a clear blue sky. Not a whole lot of boat traffic in the channel, but a few cruised by, along with the tourist paddle wheeler, as it started its' journey around the island. This is the time of year that the snowbirds are starting to arrive for the winter, and the boating community scales back from the hectic summer months. It's a good time of year on the lower Colorado River, and we're not only enjoying the weather, but we've got our favorite girl with us for the next week or so.
