Jun. 2nd, 2011 06:46 amPlayed a round of Aggravation yesterday with Marie, Aunt Marie, and our two grandmas. Since there were five of us and six sets of marbles, Aunt Marie had control over both the "black boys" and the "blueberries". Grandma Barbara won the game.
Joined Marie and Grandma Barbara in having a swim after Marie told me that the water was supposed to get much colder today. While we were in the water, Marie asked me to get Mom to come take our picture. Grandma Ella's friends Richard and Toni also paid us a brief visit, before all three of them left. I went back in, Marie was using a lifejacket that she was wearing as a makeshift seat to float on, and suggested I do the same with another lifejacket, and Mom snapped a picture of us and Grandma Barbara together.
Meanwhile, Aunt Marie was out on the sailboat. Brian and Dad came out, and Dad went on the dock and tried to land rocks on the boat, pretending to be shooting cannonballs from a ship. After she came back to the dock, little Marie had her turn on the sailboat, and Brian had a sail on the kayak.
I also noticed a few ducks some distance to the right of the dock. Mom suggested I feed them some stale bread that was sitting on the deck. I broke up a flatbread and started throwing it to them. The one closest to the torn-up bits started feasting on it, but the other two flew away.
