Saturday: Parkinson Picnic, Kentucky Derby, Mug Race and River House!

We enjoyed hanging with the Parkingson group at GCS Spring Park, I brought twice as much pasta salad as needed. The food was good, the guys grilled hamburgers and hotdogs.
The weather was nice, a bit too warm once the sun came out. We sat/spoke with Bob and Mary (brought potato salad), they live close to us on Doctor's Lake.
I checked out the new kayak launching dock at the park:
We came home, after stopping at Fresh Market for roses and fruit for our River House happy hour. Kathy was in St. Augustine, visiting with Dee (her DIL) and sons as an early Mother's Day. Me wearing a hat - very rare - makes my head hot!
The guys get to chat.
Took a photo from outside; it was a beautiful day, but with the wind and loud music, we sat inside. I gave the roses to bartendress, Michelle, for Derby - Run for the Roses theme.
Back home, we heated up leftover orange chicken and leftover outlaw chicken salad sandwiches; watched the Kentucky Derby.
