A beautiful Monday

Monday was a bright sunshiny day, so we got lots of pictures...

At the "big" pool -- this is where we do water exercises

We decided to join the Bingo game...

... Carl pointed out that the cards were from St Charles, Il -- where he and Sue had had their home before they went fulltime RVing.

Bingo is interesting when the players may speak many different languages. They wrote the numbers on a whiteboard as well as calling.

The first game was to get one line - across, up/down, or diagonal. The second game (which continued on from the first one) was to get the 4 corners filled. The third game was to cover all of the squares... and...

... Carl was one of the people who "Bingo"d at the same call. There were 5 who all got Bingo at the same time, so they all went up, drew a Bingo ball out of a bag, and the highest number won... Carl drew out O-74, which was the winner -- so he got a nice red RIU hat!

We were down by the beach just before heading to the restaurant for supper -- the sky was so pretty -- that's the nearly full moon rising.

After supper, we went back out to the beach to admire the moon shine on the water...

... depending on how we set our photo settings, more was lit up...

It was really beautiful!
