Lunch, Sun & Synchronized Dipping

Our last day in the area came quicker than we hoped, due to our schedule getting trimmed, but you better believe we squeezed every last drop of fun out of it.

Sadly, Don’s dreams of one final mud-splattered mountain bike ride were brake-checked—literally. His bike went back to the shop (again), still refusing to stop when told. No biking for him, but probably a win for his limbs.

Beth, on the other hand, was not about to let the day go quietly. She hit the courts at MetField for one last pickleball hurrah with Suzanne—who always brings the good vibes and the competitive edge. ❤️ The morning was packed with fantastic games, challenging shots, and some serious fun with both new friends and familiar faces. Huge thanks to Suzanne, Ray, Keith, Jamie, Jen, and Charolette (another RP legend!)—you all made it a morning to remember!

The GRAND FINALE!?
The Tuckers opened their gorgeous lakefront estate (Tuckers Landing) for lunch (which was delicious) and an afternoon of laughter and lounging with the Richards and Lissbergers. There was a dreamy pontoon boat ride (yes, we could definitely get used to this), dockside relaxing, and epic float sessions that may or may not have turned into synchronized dipping (er… peeing) after a few beverages.

The setting? Stunning.
The food? Delicious.
The company? Top-tier.

Tuckers, your hospitality and generosity are off the charts—thank you for giving our last day the perfect send-off. We left with full hearts, full bellies, and probably a little sunburn. Totally worth it. ☀️🚤💦Read more
