Our Friday night date was a spontaneous picnic: French bread, fresh mozzarella cheese, grapes, cherries, and homemade shrimp salad (tiny salad shrimp, celery, onion, mayo & lots & lots of Old Bay Seasoning). We drove out to Havre de Grace with a blanket and stopped at the park, where folks were gathering for an outdoor concert. The band was amazing (found out Mercedes' uncle was in it!) and we enjoyed our food and the music! Nice, relaxing, good to talk without worrying about being interrupted by waiter/waitress. We made lists of what we wanted to do with the rest of our lives, what goals, bucket list we were still dreaming about.
John has a talent of condensing my big plans into concrete mission statements, specific things that helps me see what I am saying more clearly.
If we keep preparing to serve a fulltime LDS mission together as a retired couple it is amazing how many of the dreams/goals are fulfilled. So that is our course, our journey.
With lots of dates & picnics along the way!
