I had the most excellent Beltane. Wade and I spent the weekend at Lake Anna, what used to be our home away from home. We haven’t been there in over a year, with both of us being hospitalized. It was so nice to see so many old friends, be back on the boat and play cornhole.
We went down armed with a ton of gardening and cleaning gear. With the help of our friends, we got the boat and trailer cleaned and new plants in the yard.
After all that work, it was time to celebrate. We spent the rest of the afternoon on the boat and diapering. What is diapering you ask? Life Jacket on your butt = floatation device. After wakeboarding, we tie our boats together, float around and chat.
After much needed rest, we played cornhole, followed by a big fire. I thought we were going to burn the place down. I’m the only Pagan in the bunch, all my friends know and respect it. Wade and my friend Beth sat around the fire with me, Beth even read my prayers and placed them in the fire.
On to Sunday. What was supposed to be a beautiful day on the boat didn’t happen. The weather got a little chilly with a few sprinkles, but that didn’t ruin a thing. We finished yard-work, then spent the rest of the day around the fire pit talking and grilling. It made it hard to leave.
What a wonderful weekend. A big thanks to my friends who made Beltane and my first time back amazing!
That’s all for now. Thanks for stopping by, have a great day!
