Friday took its time getting here this week. Usually, the weeks fly by but this week has dragged for me. Not sure why but here we are - finally! I have some new photos to share!
We get horseback riders most weeks and I love seeing them.
I actually saw them riding by from my office window on Monday.

Our staff has been working hard this week, preparing our Derby Lake for this year's Fishing Derby (for kids). You might remember when I held the alligator last year. Our boss, Danon, decided we needed to have a staff cookout for lunch yesterday. I brought baked beans and he got the burgers. There were about 14 of us. A nice time in a beautiful environment.
This dock will be full of kids fishing tomorrow.
The pavilion with Norman cooking burgers...
The building in the distance, almost the center, is our office building.
That is an osprey nest on the pole and mamma osprey was not happy we were there.
Restrooms and a view of Derby Lake.
Norman and his wife live nearby so Valerie came too. She brought their dog, Sam, with her. Sam is a HUGE Bernadoodle. He isn't a year old yet.
And we saw this heron on the dock before we finished our lunch.
I really am blessed to have this job.
I have to work tomorrow, checking families in. It will be a long day since I have to be there at 7:00 a.m. but it will be fun seeing the kids having such a good time. They each get a free fishing pole and tackle!! We will also serve hotdogs and chips for lunch. Pictures will follow!
Peace & Hugs!
For God so loved the world...
Oh, I know you will have a great time on Saturday, even if it is a long day. Praying you will be up and at 'em and ready to roll all day long. I wonder if you'll get to hold another gator? Have fun!! Loved the pictures!! You work in a beautiful place!!
ReplyDeleteI think you have a wonderful environment and people to work with at your job. I am so happy for you.
ReplyDeleteSuch a gorgeous place to work, Terri. Have fun tomorrow with all the little fishermen!
ReplyDeleteBlessings!
I'm so glad you had a good week at work. What a beautiful place to work. Thanks for sharing your pictures. Hope you get to hold the gator again.
ReplyDeleteLovely... and a nice time with the cook out.
ReplyDeleteNow if one has to work on Saturday, 'your' park takes the cake! But first, I'd have to sit right down and have a long talk with Sam. He looks like a real sweetheart.
ReplyDeleteI could sure go for a grilled hot dog right about now. Enjoy!
