Picnic in September...

Most of my friends wanted to go on a picnic today, in order to take advantage of the nice weather. So the final decision was made immediately, as soon as we each awakened at our respective homes, the telephones were ringing and plans were made for our adventure to a rustic park that is a good hike from the cafe. The meeting place was the cafe for a coffee, and then on to our planned destination. Some of the men had to stop by "Subway" and pick up a sandwich of sorts, all very healthy, I noticed at the park Most of the ladies had prepared something  at home for the picnic and for everyone to share. We all took water and or juice to drink. We arrived at the park after a wonderful hike and lots of laughter and talk along the way. We were able to locate two picnic tables and began to set it up.  Seahorse had brought a tablecloth along, much to our surprise. We, women forgot one so it was a well desired item. The food was shared and devoured by all. We had a fruit bowl in a papaya shell and nuts and all kinds of sandwiches, plus juices and water and chocolate cookies for dessert, dark chocolate, I might add,  a moderate size square will never hurt a girl or a guy. No wasps or bees. We attempted to get a kite in the air but not sufficient wind.On our way home we stopped at a lemonade stand and of course had a lemonade.. The pleasant and polite children were pleased that they had customers and the funds going to the Humane Society.
