puzzle was solved for good. \u00a0We played even more inspired now, until the clock reached eight bells. \u00a0It was time to recede for the particular holiday.<\/p>\n<p>It was an interesting day. \u00a0The weather, the music, the people. \u00a0We had our friends from the great oaks stop by and help us enjoy the day even more.<\/p>\n<p>Once more, it was evident that it was the people that make the day special. \u00a0Any day.<\/p>\n<p>We would be playing again on Thursday. \u00a0And then again on Saturday. \u00a0Looking forward, it would be a great week. \u00a0One to remember, we were sure.<\/p>\n<p>Rb<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-7997\" src=\"\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-7998\" src=\"\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-7999\" src=\"\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-8000\" src=\"\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-8001\" src=\"\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-8002\" src=\"\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-8003\" src=\"\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-8005\" src=\"\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-8006\" src=\"\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-8007\" src=\"\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-8008\" src=\"\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-8009\" src=\"\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-8010\" src=\"\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-8011\" src=\"\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-8012\" src=\"\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-8013\" src=\"\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-8014\" src=\"\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-8015\" src=\"\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-8016\" src=\"\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-8017\" src=\"\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-8018\" src=\"\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-8019\" src=\"\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-8020\" src=\"\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When the rain comes down by the water, no one seems to care. \u00a0Well, boaters sure don&#8217;t seem to. \u00a0They simply move from one place they are drinking at, to the next place. \u00a0No problems.
