It was a sweet time with our young toddler daughter. We enjoyed barbecuing teriyaki chicken on the hibachi and watch the sun set. That's the kind of picnic I enjoy. Too lazy to do that now.

Seems like you have incorporated all the things you enjoy and now you know what to avoid. <br />All in all I'd say you have made your winter stay quite a success.

There's such potential for a fun picnic with the pool and the shuffle board/bocci areas.

Apparently you wouldn't want to have to sit with someone not pre-approved. So, so much for the "picnic"!<br />But I must say i really admire the ways you have chosen to become involved in your winter community.
