Are you searching for a opportunity? A way to work from home part time?
We were -13 plus years ago –
what was at first a way to pay for our purchase-
To doing The Business part time –
To retiring and have a supplemental income
To be able to travel – (read my blogs over 200)
And once retired to remain in our home
near our grand kids!
It is a very simple product – fruits – vegetables – berries –
put into capsules for you to take two of each everyday with water!
And research proven that it immediately goes into the bloodstream
repairs cellular damage – and boosts the immune system
along with other proven research facts!
Over 30 published researches from major institutions
around the WORLD!
And if you have a hard time swallowing THERE ARE GUMMIES! GREAT FOR CHILDREN! And – as a bonus – children – ages 4 to 19 are FREE! When a adult purchases the product one child per adult purchase gets it free for up to FOUR YEARS as long as the adult continues! And COLLEGE STUDENTS
The GUMMIES come in FRUITS – VEGETABLES and BERRIES!
We use them for snacks rather than candy !
Need a PROTEIN drink a drink for breakfast – lunch or work out! A way to cut fats – calories from large meals! Then our two powered drinks DUTCH CHOCOLATE FRENCH VANILLA I just add crushed ICE a cup of Soy or Almond Milk Water and whatever FRUIT I want -in a blender and it fills me up! THE DRINKS ARE PROTEIN GLUTEN-FREE NON-GMO LOW GLYCEMIC FIBER & VEGAN
We also have bars – to use as a snack or in place of a meal with the drink!
The bars are Protein – Fiber – Non-Soy –
Vegetarian – Gluten free –
Non Dairy & Low Glycemic!
The Published research says it all NSA approved for pro athletes
So – how is the business and what to expect?
It all depends on yourself!
You can do it part time as we did for years
or – full time – it is your choice
but know either way – you have a support group!
You can follow this or do this!Or SHARE a concept of health and nutrition much as you would a movie – a book or a favorite vacation spot!
We started the business part time
to pay for our purchase each month
and then to get all our grand kids started
each of the six have taken Juice Plus either all their lives
or the majority of their lives!
We eased in and then saw the benefits
then we simply shared- first with our family
then our friends with the help of our sponsors!
The steps to success and success is at every step! Those whom you sponsor because of their own effort can pass you on the steps! It is completely up to you or them how to progress You still get a commission on their efforts either way!
The Juice Plus Business plan is fair-
It allows you to go at your own pace
and you never lose what you gained!
Once you have achieved that step
You do not go back down
and those that you sponsor as a partner
can progress above your step!
The cost of HEALTH & NUTRITION less than a coffee at Starbucks!
The cost is less than that treat that you might buy
I wanted color back here – the builder planted white Crepe Myrtles out front – these are WATERMELLON!
We also replaced all the Pine Straw and moved it to the tree line where we had three Oleanders put in!
They are young plants and hoping they will take hold – watering them everyday – but next year they should bloom
a bright RED againest the back drop of the protected tree line.
The second Crepe Myrtle – all trees in the yard now have stone and brick or edging depending where they are. The ones next to the house are mulched in black and serve as a contrast to the light gray siding.
A quiet neighborhood – but already a man rang the doorbell trying to sell home securtiy!
We are slowly putting in flowers that will come back year to year – hoping to make this area wild but colorful!
This will be a on going work in progress – adding a little bit here and there!

The entrance to Cameron Woods which is part of Ocean Ridge across the highway.
In part we choose this development because it has a place to walk! Quietly – and not much traffic!
Also close to the entrance – a retaining pond – one of many in the area.
A look from the street into Cameron Woods – Ocean Ridge.
This area was supposed to be developed much like Ocean Ridge across the street –
where the BIG CAT golf courses – four of them – are located.
When the downturn came – this section discontinued development –
somehow – Realstar became involved and is developing Cameron Woods in among all the lots that were previously
sold by the main developer.
For whatever reason – no one is building on them except maybe 8 to 10 houses.
This area is like entering a national forest!
The beginning of my walk back to the house from the gate. QUIET – hardly any cars!At the beginning a few of the less than a dozen homes that were built here.
Then you enter the forest – there are utilities here – water – sewage and electric – berms and drains and street lights with Ocean Ridge on them.
I wonder just why no one is building in these sections with many named roads turning off the main road.
Might it be all tied up in courts or someone bad mouthed the development!
Very interesting – and we have been told – they paid a lot for these properties.
We made the right choice – our development is thriving – another and last section will soon open up.
By the end of the year – our section should be completed and all sold out!

Wild life is here – I have seen deer – turkeys – gators – turtles – birds of prey – not any snakes just yet!SHERRY – CERTIFIED HEALTH COACH – site http://www.sf.juiceplus.com – contact ssherrylynn49@aol.com
He had red curly hair – a smile a mile wide and a laugh and giggle that you knew right away who it was.
He was my younger brother – we were like a second family for my parents –
Donna and Roger were 15 and 10 years older.
We had a sister who died at birth in between the two sets of kids.
We fought like cats and dogs do – but we also were close.
He instigated a lot of it and would scream bloody murder as loud as he could when I had enough.
I was the one who into trouble but mom always knew as she later told me.
He was just o darn likable with that hair and giggle.
MOM ( Mary) Sue ( Susan) his wife and Mike ( we look alike here I think.)
We played all the time together – cowboys and Indian’s – running the neighborhood –
He was always hurting himself – one time he climbed up on top of a attached shed at a neighbors house.
He was going to ambush me but I saw him and pretended to shoot him.
I saw what he was going to do and I yelled STOP – but he did it anyway –
always acting real life he sort of collapsed and rolled off the shed to the ground as if dead.
But there was a stone bird bath under the shed roof and when he came down he hit his elbow on it!
Off to the doctors office we went and then in the ambulance to the hospital to have surgery on the elbow!
He had to have a pin put in and that elbow was off to the side -making his arm seem crooked.
Mom ( Mary) talking to Mike’s daughter Jennifer at the kitchen table.
A few years later – we were on the front porch – and he had climbed up onto the porch railing – I told him he had better get down before he fell.
Well – as always – he gave me that silly laugh and giggle – and I could not help but smile until he did fall.
At the end of the porch beneath that railing – a 2 x 10 stuck out – he came down and hit that board with his other elbow and we repeated the same thing all over again with another surgery – now he had two elbows exactly the same!
But -it seemed like it was a perfect solution for him as it perfected his golf swing and he had a lot of power and strength in those arms – one time I was with him – and this was way before anyone was hitting the ball 300 yards.
We were playing the old number one hole at Smethport – he was a Freshman – me just beginning my senior year –
He hit that ball and because of how his elbows were now shaped – he hit it straight with power. That hole was a gradual uphill some 305 yards!
His ball ended up past the hole and into the yard behind it! Some 50 or 60 yards past! Uphill!
If I had not been there to see it – I would not believe it!
Gene Fazio – who was a card member of the PGA and a premier golfer in the Pa. and NYS area –
told me – “IF I HAD MY SHORT GAME AND MIKE’S DRIVING – I WOULD GO ON THE PGA TOUR”!
Mike was a scratch golfer even with those elbows.
Mike later with a red beard and that red curly hair!
Mike ended up bigger than me – he was as tall as my father who was a little over six foot tall.
The brother’s – Roger – Mike and I got our curly hair from my dad – my grandfather was bald.
Mike ended up around 215 pounds and played football – but he could kick that ball just like he hit golf balls.
Far and straight – he became a field goal kicker way before that was common in H.S.
His kick offs were always through the end zone and he went on to college at Mansfield University of Pa.
Where he became the kicker for the college football team.
He graduated in Criminal Justice.
My step dad John – Sue and Mike.
As I said before he was always doing something and getting hurt!
He was riding my bike one day and I told him to get off as he was not big enough to ride it!
His legs could barley touch the pedals – sure enough his foot slipped and he came down on the cross bar –
off to the hospital we went again – operation for a rupture!
My brother in law Bill nick named him JUICE!
I really do not know why other than he was like electric – energy running through him – always a live wire!
Then one day Bill and I were sitting on the front porch –
and he said “HERE COMES JUICE”!
And then Bill said “JESUS CHRIST”!
And Bill hollered at him – “JUICE- PUT THE ROPE DOWN”!
But too late!
Mike was walking up the street twirling a dog rope with a clasp on the end of it over his head like a cowboy!
He got it too low just after Bill yelled to put it down and it started to wind around his head lower and lower.
It came around and smacked him right on the mouth –
“KNOCKING OUT HIS FRONT TOOTH”!
Off to the dentist office we went – oral surgery to extract what remained in his mouth of that tooth.
THAT IN A NUTSHELL WAS MY BROTHER MIKE!
Red hair – bearded – always smiling and that silly laugh – giggle.
I MISS HIM as he passed away when I was 35.
Sue Mike Jenifer
My brother MIKE – loved – close as brothers are – gone way too young – but never forgotten.
This is the new house – most of the outside is complete – and the inside is almost done.
The kitchen and to the right – the breakfast nook.
The floors are all done as is the carpet and tile.
They move pretty fast when they all show up to complete what they have to do!
View from the sun room looking through the vaulted living room – office in the middle – front door to the left and garage door to the right.
The office with french doors.
The sun room and looking out to the patio.
The text message came yesterday – we are still on schedule for a walk through on 6-22-21 –
which most likely will of happened by the time I post this blog.
The screened in covered lanai off the breakfast nook and sun room.
Master bed room with bump out windows.
Master bath – tiled shower.
The tiled shower – all the tile came from where we both worked for a combined 79 1/2 years! DAL TILE CO.
We choose to make the shower and linen closet bigger and not have a bath tub in here.
Looking back into the master bedroom from the bathroom.
We were able to pick what we wanted for the house – as long as there were options.
Second bedroom – a hall bath is between the two front bedrooms across from the office and by the front door entrance – the entrance is covered as is the front porch.
The third bedroom which is on the side of the house.
It is almost done and we are two weeks out to closing which by the time I post this – will of happened.

SHERRY A CERTIFIED HEALTH COACH Health and Nutrition home based business
Our new neighborhood – Cameron Woods – Ocean Isle Beach – mainland side – North Carolina
We decided to walk the new trail at the end of our road before the culdesac.
This winds around the pond and through the woods and back to the pond again.
Leaving our new home and walking down the street to the entrance to the trail – path.
The entrance to the trail head with the pond on the right and headed to the woods.
These lots were our first choice had they been available – but they were all purchased – in fact – someone backed out on our wooded lot and we grabbed it right away as we wanted a private back yard.
This is the smaller of two ponds and maybe a third they are developing – the other larger one is in the new construction area and am hoping this trail will eventually be tied into that one!
The new construction area is just over that treeline which is considered a wetland and is protected and will remain that way.
Into the woods – the path winds through the wooded area and in the shade – a lot cooler on a hot 90 plus day!
Sherry walking the path – birds were everywhere! There were areas where it looked like other paths would be planned and paths expanded.
The walk was about 15 minutes long – not quite a mile – but this is only one place to walk –
the other places all together add up to another 3 or 4 miles!
Here we come out of the woods to the opposite end of the pond from the start.
Now we are walking into the culdesac which is behind the tree line in our back yard.
We also could of chosen a lot back in here – but these houses would of been a later closing date.
Walking back up the street toward our new home which is just beyond the last house you see here along that tree line – that house would be our neighbors house.
The street leading back to the house.
SHERRY CERTIFIED HEALTH COACH almost home – just beyond that white truck.
She is a GOLDENDOODLE – all legs and a cute face that you become attached to!
She is ten weeks old and named Marley – the newest addition to Tammy and Marcus’s family!
They have wanted a dog for years – at least the kids have.
But – I feel deep down – this is Tammy’s Dog! LOL
Marley – she just flops down where ever she is and looks at you with those puppy eyes!
Everyone was gone – kids in school – Tammy and Marcus at work – Sherry meeting friends for lunch and me with Marley – the whole time I had her outside in the fenced in back yard – she would go and hide in the bushes!
Peaking out at me – and when I went over – she thought it a game and would move to another bush!
She really is a sweet puppy – but still a puppy – she has sharp little teeth – and barks really loud!
It was warm outside and she sought out the shade – she would look at me and when I whistled – would come running up to me – licking my legs and hands and wagging her whole body!
But – she is a puppy and like a little child – you have to watch everything she does – chewing – peeing –
It is more challenging than baby sitting! LOL
Marley – under the bush – the other side is a drain spout and wet – she would go there and roll in the mud and dig!
Marley – waiting for me to let her back into the house – she seemed to have had enough for a while!
She wants to go back inside and will lay at the top of the steps and sort of cry!
Then when you go up to her – she gets all excited and licks you as you open the door and inside she goes!

Then the kids came home and it became Taylor and Marley – she has a way with Marley – more so than the other two – making her listen and holding her!
For HEALTH and NUTRITION
Sherry – my wife – is a CERTIFIED HEALTH COACH
( a reason why I am still alive after my heart attack 7 1/2 years ago)
She guides me in nutrition – walking for health – getting all the nutrients for my immune system –
and living life to the plus.
She also is a SSC for the Juice Plus Company –
and owns her own internet marketing business – anywhere from her computer and phone.
We have driven by this golf course it seems like a hundred times!
This course sits on the right on Route 17 as you drive South to North Myrtle Beach in N.C.
It always looked so well groomed and made you just want to stop and take a picture!
Well – finally – we played it – with Buck and Cindy – our long time friends.
We try to play once a week with them – either toward there home which will be about 40 miles from our new home-
Or they drive down and stay the night as they did here and we golf the next day.
Cindy and Sherry – getting ready to be called up to the first tee!
It is always a scramble – we all hit – and then the gals go to their best ball and the guys do the same.
Then you do it all over again – and they are never in trouble – always down the middle –
and each one hits a good ball off the tee.
Playing the senior tees for us – they have a advantage on their tee box and our drives are about the same.
Plus – they are always in the middle of the fairway and I never know where I will be! LOL
This course is one that when you play it – you want to come back!
I would rate this one right up with the best ones we have played and it was a nice course!
There were so many scenes I wanted to take pictures of – but we had a group behind us that was pushing and a group ahead that was always waiting for the group ahead of them.
It was not to my advantage to take pictures as we waited as the group behind could not see what we were seeing with waiting on the other groups.
So – I just relaxed and waited – along with the gals and when we could hit – they hit first and I hit last.
All in all – it turned into a relaxing golf day as no one could go anywhere and we just played the course.
But – I want to return – and by the way – we finally overcame our losing streak – we beat them!
By a total of three strokes over 18 holes!
They are so hard to beat – and if we could putt – well – that would be a big difference!

We pulled up to the front of the house – DRYWALL in the trash bin!
You see – there has been a delay and shortage in drywall – all over the country –
which has held up our completion by a month! Along with inspectors and inspections!
I was excited as this meant the drywall was being put in!
When I walked into the garage – it had the first coat of MUD on!Then – I went inside and it was all done – first coat of mud – we were back on schedule after four weeks!
It has been a long four to five weeks with hardly any progress – but we prayed and it is now moving forward.
Looking toward the front from the sun room – to the left – hallway – entrance to the bedrooms and bathroom – middle is outer wall to the office – and to the right hallway to laundry room and garage. Open space is vaulted living room.
The kitchen and breakfast nook.
Window to the left – breakfast nook and the yard – rear windows – the outside enclosed lanai.
Looking from the hallway into the living room – to the left – kitchen island and the breakfast nook – to the right – Sherry standing in the sun room. The whole back of the house is windows – open patio behind her through the windows.Master bedroom with bathroom to the left and hall way door to the right.
And two days later when we visited – the mud on the dry wall was completed – sanded – and we had CABINETS!
Kitchen and Island
Master bathroom
Guest bathroom
We are excited – they told us tile is going in – grading outside – doors to be hung.
Now there is a delay and shortage on PAINT!
Because of the ICE STORM in Texas and the Pandemic.
They told us they would continue doing the things they could until they got the paint.

Our new community – Cameron Woods – Ocean Isle Beach – mainland side – LOT # 89!
We are happy – moving forward -perhaps by the time this posts – we will have a move in date!
Our lot is backed by trees that will not be cleared – it is deemed protected wetlands.
We will have lots of roads to walk and new trails going in.
Almost all the purple area has been sold years ago – but no one has seemed to build on them –
maybe a half dozen really big homes!
We do not know why – investment?
You can buy lots there from individuals for a hefty price!
For now it remains paved roads – old growth shaded trees and street lights – utilities
A few short years ago – Maddy ( finished Sophomore college) Ella – (enter college in fall) all grown up now!
Maddy has been named to third team in her conference playing soccer – as a Sophomore she was in the top five on her team in four different categories –
Ella – is playing her last soccer for her senior year – undefeated – and aiming for states. She is one of five or six off her team to have signed letters of intent to play in college – she will be attending Randolph College and in the same conference as Maddy.
Ella – Papa – Maddy – it seems like just yesterday – we were the support team for their mother and father and uncle and Tammy and Sherry running the ten mile Cherry Blossom Race in Washington D.C. – where we stationed ourselves to welcome them all across the finish line! Here we are in our front yard before we left for D.C. They were troopers – following me around – standing up on a bench so they could watch the race! Carrying clothes – back packs – water bottles – everything needed for the finish line that day in May.
As the years passed – Sarah came along – the baby little sister – always making the older two laugh.
She has a way about her – always the forefront of fashion.
Wants her grandma to take her to N.Y.C. to see Broadway and shows!
Sarah – Maddy – Ella and Papa – Christmas eve waiting to go to bed – and wake up for Christmas morning!
I miss those special times – all three sitting at the top of the stairs – waiting for their parents to get up – smiling – laughing – such great kids and polite.
Today – we are scattered – us being in S.C. Maddy – coming home from Lynchburg Va.
Ella completing her senior year of H.S. and Sarah about to enter H.S.
Papa with Maddy at one of her early travel team games – she went on to driving herself 65 miles each way for practice three times a week to join a more elite travel team where we lived in Loudoun county , Va. catching the eye of college coaches – now playing at The University Of Lynchburg in Va.
Thinking back to the early years – the smallest one out there with a skill set – determination and quickness. I always thought she should of gone into track as she ran a 5:40 mile and did not train much!
Now – today all three are so tall – athletic – Maddy at 5 ‘ 6″ Ella at 5′ 8 1/2 ” and Sarah almost to 5’ 8″ ( 15 years old soon)
I miss those days of the three little ones – giggling – laughing – on the trampoline – hiking – soccer – dance – running –
being little girls – climbing up into my lap – singing songs as I picked them up!
Today – they are young ladies with their grandma – the little ones are gone but not forgotten – MEMORIES!

PAPA’S WORLD – when they were little – now all grown up!
Papa and Sherry – hugging a tree in Sarasota , Florida – we had considered moving here – but it was just too far to drive for family and friends and for us to go back home without flying.
Then the Pandemic hit and it never came back into the discussion again.
But – I really liked it here and if we came to Florida – this would be my first choice!
I do not remember the name of the garden but it is city center – and a beautiful place to walk!
We were among huge old growth trees – a lot of shade and a sort of tree – boardwalk that wound its way
in and through the tree branches!
Thank you for reading Papa’s World – Sarasota Florida in the garden – with a exhibit for Salvadore Dali!

A bright sun rise to a eventful full day of walking – getting ready – visiting the storage unit – and finally – teeing off!Buck on the first tee at 4:40 pm. We were golfing late – Cindy had a lot of stuff to do at work!
So – the plan was made – golf nine – eat dinner and then go home!
We could of stayed with them – but – lugging all the stuff I need – my sleep machine etc. just easier to drive the hour plus drive back to the condo – besides – plenty of more times exist in the future!
Sherry getting ready to tee off on the second hole!
We played our scramble format – Buck and me – they played best ball – WE LOST!
Cindy teeing off – Sherry spotting the ball!
Now – we lost two holes to them – one by one stroke and one by two strokes!
We play even up – and we tied the other seven holes.
But – on the hole we lost by one stroke – we parred – they birdied!
On the one we lost by two strokes – they parred and we four putted – just the way it goes!
Cindy – birdie putt – made it – we parred – they are so good!
We have played this format for years and years – we at one time played couples vs couple – then we played mixed couple vs. mixed couple – but the gals challenged us – the other ways split pretty even – this way – THEY WIN!
My buddy – my partner – golfing together – we did beat them a few weeks ago – but we had to shoot a 39 to beat them!
Thank you for reading Papa’s World – my drive – second shot coming up – we four putted – double bogie – LOST!Sherry teeing off – right down the middle – both are that way!
WHERE FRIENDS MEET THE FAMILY FAMILY MEETS FRIENDS PAPA’S WORLD living life to the fullest
Cindy and Sherry WINNER WINNER CHICKEN DINNER – guys vs gals – the best is yet to come!
On October 1st. 2020 – this became our new home for nine months!
We had no idea we would end up in North Myrtle Neach.
My friend would ask me WHY we choose there?
Well – the best answer I can give is I came across this condo –
on a site that listed houses and condos for sale!
I expanded the search area and this picture or one like it – came into view!
I showed it to Sherry and we decided right there and then we would rent it!
First – for three months – then we extended it to five months –
all because we looked and looked and decided it was just as good to build –
as it was to buy! We could have what we wanted and not upgrade someone’s home!
So – we made our choice in Cameron Woods – across the border into N.C.
It would be a brand new build and we set about making our selections –
and at that time we extended our lease until the end of June!
Which would be a total of nine months!
We tried very hard to stay in this area – but cost and being too close to the Ocean
played a big part in where we ended up!
We are with in four miles to a beach and six miles to another beach!
We can drive one half hour back here to North Myrtle Beach.
We are in a new development – and right in the middle of a dozen golf courses!
We are in the country but a mile and one half to a gas station and a couple miles to a Publix!
In November we signed our contract and made all our selections.
We are on schedule for a early June closing!
We will walk a beach everyday – which has been our dream – we have a community of neighbors we have already met.
Our new home – roof done – siding almost done – stacked stone done – doors and windows – done – plumbing done – electrical done – insulation done – dry wall to start and by the time this is published – will be done – as will most of the inside – outside trim – almost done – utilities – connected – we are almost there!
Sherry and Cindy – they decided to walk the 18 holes – Sherry got a new pull cart!
I actually believe these 27 holes compare to the best in the area including Myrtle Beach!
On this day – the flowers were in full bloom and reminded me of Augusta!
Almost every hole was like this!
A view of the driving range from the outdoor patio of the clubhouse!
Sherry Cindy and Buck – having a beverage on the outdoor patio after 18 holes!
On one of the tee boxes – everything was blooming!
We have played this course many times over the years!
They have called this home for at least twenty years.
Having bought and sold and built here many times.
This is the main reason we came South to this general area.
Our new home will be about 40 minutes away –
so daily golf is available!
Sherry on the patio of their home that overlooks one of the large waterways on the course!Cindy on the same patio of their home looking in a different direction from Sherry!Cindy was to the left – Sherry to my right and Buck straight across from me – looking at the course across the water!
This is the second home they have built here – both in this water area and both had like views –
only this one is downsized from the other one.
Buck and I on the tee box about to tee off!
We – Buck and I – did our usual scramble – and we had a record for us – we shot a 39 with a double boogie the last hole!
If you are ever in N.C. just South of Leland and Wilmington – this is a public course – 27 holes – stop in and make a tee time – it will surprise you and you will love it – one of the best around the area!
Cindy and Sherry – one will walk and then change up for the other to drive.
We started off in the rain – but the forecast said it would move on out –
and the sun and warmth would be there!
AND THAT IS JUST WHAT IT DID!
One of the views – we had to cross over here – but it was not a busy road.
Are there Gators here? YES THERE ARE!
Sherry Buck Cindy about to putt!
We played well – Buck and I – enough so that they beat us by one stroke the first nine and we won by three stokes the back nine. Do not be fooled by how close they made it – they are always right down the middle and second shot is either on the green or close to it! They are good when in a scramble!
We bought what is called the first tee card – we all have them and it allows us to play over 32 courses
at reduced rates – all are on the N.C. side of the border – and our new house is right in the middle!
Sherry going for the green on a par three over the marsh.
Cindy going for the green over the marsh.
I did not like this tee box as it was like a practice mat.
The only part of the whole course that they did this on.
You could not put a tee in – only if you found a seam.
Thank you for reading Papa’s World.
It was a fun day – and because it was cart path only –
it took us five hours to play and we did not finish up until 6:00 PM.
But – we finally beat them on the back nine by three strokes and it was hard doing that!

SHERRY: Works for The Juice Plus Company as a SENIOR SALES COORDINATOR HOME BASED BUSINESS
We had stopped here over the weekend – as we have driven by it hundreds of times!
Two entrances and finally I just turned in and followed the road for about a mile.
And then we were there – EAGLES NEST GOLF COURSE!
What we found out later – was this is the longest course in S.C.
and maybe the longest I have EVER played!
The back tee box – if you play that – the course is over 8200 yards long!
And full of beautiful scenes such as these!
There are many marsh areas such as this – did not see any snakes or gators!
It was more like this most holes!
We were teamed up with a father & son.
We introduced ourselves – we had not planned on playing with anyone.
But – after the first hole awkwardness
It turned into a fun day!
A view down the fairway!
I had watched my wife and how she was hitting.
I noted that she was doing everything right except two things!
I told her to tee her ball up a little back in her stance –
and to always tee it up the same height.
She was coming over the top on her ball – still hitting it good but not as far as she has.
This green – she hit the cart path – this hole for her was 299 yards – after I adjusted her stance and tee height – she ripped one down the right side and it hit the cart path and followed it toward the green – we searched and searched where we thought it had gone – the two guys we were with found it! It was laying just off the green on this side along the cart path. It had gone 299 yards!
And – I might add – she beat me by FIVE STROKES on the front nine!
So much for me showing her what to do! LOL!
After I showed her the adjustment – with her ladies tee – she was out driving the rest of us!
And she continued her good play – she also beat me the second nine!
Just a word to our friends – Cindy and Buck – the ladies have to give us strokes from now on! LOL
They are just too darn good!

Before I showed her a new stance – moving the ball back and then letting her swing take it!
I did not get a picture after – I was too busy trying to keep up with her shots! LOL
The pier in the distance – we went in and grab something to eat and just sat and enjoyed the view!
We knew Ocean Isle Beach was a eight minute drive from the new house- without heavy traffic.
Now – it was time to see just how far the other beach – Sunset Beach – was from the new house.
So – we drove and it was 13 minutes!
About five minutes longer in no traffic!
So – there you are – two beaches to choose from – and if we want – we can go back to NMB –
some 30 minutes away – with no traffic.
We checked out the parking as we understand that in the busy part – this could determine where we go!
They have pay parking – which you can pay a set price for the year –
and – like the other beach – off the road parking –
but we were told to be careful on that – if you do not do it right –
like blocking the bike path or sidewalk –
you will get a fine!
The other direction on Sunset Beach which we were told was voted one of the top ten beaches in the country! And it really is nice – time will tell if we like it more that either of the other two beaches!
It was a very windy day on the sand – so we decided not to walk the beach –
but rather see where we can walk among the streets and houses.
We did find a path to walk – while not going on the sand –
and could see we could easily get our three mile walk in!

Sherry – too much wind – another entrance too the beach – CERTIFIED HEALTH COACH!
Every Sunday we go to Cameron Woods where our new home is being built – no one is working on Sunday so we can look it over outside and inside – and our builder calls us each Monday to give us a update. That way we can ask questions if we see something and get answers without meeting in person.
Here is the front – siding in entrance way is done – roof shingles done – back and side siding half done.
The right side of the house – back to front – breakfast nook – kitchen – window laundry room and then the garage.
At the rear will be the covered – screened in lanai.
The covered – screened in Lanai with the back door and then the open patio. To the right is the breakfast nook and kitchen – all windows.
To the right – covered Lanai – open Patio and windows of the sun room – then the master bedroom.
The rear – Master bedroom and going to the front – master bath – bedroom 2 and then bath two and then bedroom 1.
They have told us we still are looking at early June for closing!
Keeping fingers crossed!
We are in the condo until end of June – we have a storage unit 3 miles from the new build.
If needed – friends have offered us a place to stay.

There is a place near the ICW – where there are hundreds of shells hanging from trees – each one is someones WISH!
We brought them – Debby – Sarah and Ella to Vareen’s Memorial Garden
Just as we did with their cousins – and here is a special place
to not wish upon a star – but a SEASHELL and the hang it form one of the Cypress Trees!
Sarah Sherry Ella Debby at the make a wish site.
Sarah’s hanging wishes for all her school friends!
The first make a wish tree – now there are many more!
Many people pass through here each day –
I watched two older women stop and do the same thing –
find a shell – write on it and then hang it from a tree!
Busy writing their names and making their wishes!
Debby’s shell – no matter how old you are – make a wish to come true!
Taylor’s shell in front of Ella’s shell – cousins!
It was a warm day – low tide so lots of shells to look at!
Sarah going to the ICW to look for shells.

SHERRY SSC for The Juice Plus Company Debby QMND for The Juice Plus Company – Mother and daughter teaming up to bring health and nutrition to families all across the U.S.A.
A few blocks North of this beach entrance – a beachfront home was moved a block from the beach!
We had watch them jacking the house up on steel I beams –
cribbing and disconnecting all the electric and plumbing!
A second floor deck had been disconnected and a pool – in ground left there with a cement patio!
A long walkway to the beach with a sitting area at the end.
Two flags on a flag pole still waved in the breeze.
We wondered where it would go and how much this would cost?
The – a block away – lot was cleared – leveled and electric pole put in.
That was when we thought – is it possible it was being moved here?
And then one day last week – the electric went out and back on shortly after –
They – the movers had begun the move at 9:04 AM.
Traffic was blocked off – a lot of police cars and county officials and the moving company
and all of its equipment.
The electric had gone off and back on for them to disconnect the power lines and splice in once again.
The two story house was on the move!
Already crossed over four lanes of Ocean Blvd. moving slowly up the street to make the right hand turn onto Hillside drive.Almost to the corner of Hillside drive.
A lot of people watching – HOW ARE THEY GOING TO MAKE THE TURN?
Almost there!About to make the turn!The turn is made – they would lay down huge wooden pallets for the wheels under the house to travel on the one side of the roadway grass!From the rear – going down Hillside drive to the cleared lot! You can see the tracks in the road of the swing to make the turn.Almost there after hours of slowly moving and repositioning the wooden pallets.Finally in place after almost a full day – well into the afternoon!Once a beachfront house – now a block away on a side street – the journey to this lot completed.
The house was moved – still left on the huge trailers with wheels.
I am thinking they will start soon to put a foundation under it!
I have no idea how much this cost – but the beachfront lot is worth a million or more.
Sherry Sarah Ella Debby – house and outhouse!
A house at the end of the rainbow! LOL!

Sherry Certified Health Coach – SSC The Juice Plus Company Debby – Certified Health Coach – QMND The Juice Plus Company
Our new home being built in Cameron Woods – Ocean Isle Beach – Brunswick County – N.C.
As you can see – the garage has a entrance directly into the hallway and laundry room!
Our life has evolved – from NVA to S.C. and eventually N.C.
All in the span of some nine months!
Where has the time gone – and when did those 40 years fly by?
We started dating in early 1981 – married in June of 1982 –
and today – building a house!
The garage with Sherry looking into the laundry room and the kitchen straight down the hall.
The garage has a overhead storage area with pull down steps.
The three entrance doors are leaning against the walls.
There is a pipe coming up out of the cement floor that I have no idea what it is for!
We are hoping to be in by early June!
We have a storage unit nearby and have our belongings in there.
The beginnings of the kitchen – island and the breakfast nook – bump out window and beyond the covered over windows – the screened in covered lanai!
The walls have been coated on the bottom with a termite barrier!
The floor plates are bolted down into the cement
and metal corner braces to code for hurricanes installed!
Solid construction to N.C. building codes.
The vaulted living room and the extended sun room and to the right – the master bedroom and bath and closet.Sherry inspecting our office – where we will do our home based internet business – http://www.sf.juiceplus.com – which will have french doors – and beyond her is the hall and laundry room and to the right the kitchen.
It was exciting to tour on a Sunday with no one around!
The spare bath – just across the hallway of the office and to the left and right will be two bedrooms.
This is the third house that we have had built – most likely our last – both of us will be 72 !
If you wish to see more of the build – visit my previous blog
