Our dear friends Ron and Mary at their lake cottage in Detroit Lakes, Minnesota.  Believe it or not, it's also called the North Country!  Mary and I love to cook, shop, talk, walk, and go boating!  The guys like to hang out on the golf course, watch sports, and sing oldies.

 

On the golf course with friends in Sioux City, Iowa

At the golf course (I drove the cart) in Sioux City, Iowa with our very special friends Pauline and Larry.  We've been friends for 26 years. YIKES!  Is that possible?!? Pauline and I are bridge buddies and were in the same bridge group for over 20 years.  We have done everything together... children, bridge, graduations, weddings, walking, shopping, talking...
