I went to the Sunrise Service this morning in town near the marina. The sun came up over the canal just as we were singing the last hymn. It was really cool. While I was walking back to the car, I saw an animal in the water. I thought, "Well, it can't be an alligator.” It had a brown head sticking out and a brown body. It stuck its head up high and I saw it was a beaver. Then he dove under the dock. I have been seeing some really exciting things here.
I came home, walked Danny, got ready and went to PA to my brother's. I walked Danny around the block while Don finished getting ready for church. We both went to the church I grew up in.
After church, we went to the cemetery to take the flowers for Ted's grave and my parent’s grave. We stopped at my Aunt Jean's on the way back. She had a full house as my cousins were there: Jan and Nate with daughters, Becky and Lindsay, Scott and Dee with daughter, Olivia, Donna and Tom with daughter, Gianna, Tom with son Sean and fiancé, Christine, and Linda's son , Pat.. It was good to see everyone. I spent many a holiday with my aunt and cousins.
When we got back, we went to my brother, Rick's for dinner. Sylvia prepared a nice dinner of ham, potato salad and coleslaw. I brought Waldorf salad and Don brought key lime pie. It was just the four of us but Rick, III and Michelle stopped in with Joey and Ryleigh.
We headed home to MD at six and got here at 7:00. The traffic was heavy so put on the radio station with the traffic report. There was an accident at the Delaware line and I could see three lanes of traffic backed up and it was two miles to Delaware. I was at an exit ramp so I exited. I drove east and picked up route 13. I took that south and got back on the expressway. The radio said the Delaware turnpike was back up from the toll both past 896. That where I'm supposed to get off. I decided to take 13 and go past my nephew’s house on the back road into MD. So a 45 minute drive took an hour but at least I wasn't sitting there for an hour.
