Thursday:

Today was laundry day!!!  It is always nice to get the laundry all done at one time.  The laundry room here at Paradise is really nicc, so I really don't mind.  Since so many people have gone home, the laundry was really quiet.  While the laundry is washing we head out to begin our walk.  In 25 minutes we return to put the laundry in the dryer.  Once again we head out to finish our walk, this time for 45 minutes.  That way we feel like we are getting two things done at once.  With the laundry done we headed back to the camper for lunch. 

After lunch we got our on bikes for our daily bike ride around the park.  The rest of the day we just caught up on some needed tasks around here. 

Thursday night we went to Church of the Palms UCC church for the Maundy Thursday service.  Church of the Palms, First Presbyterian Church of Sun City and Faith Presbyterian Church join together for special worship services.  Ash Wednesday services were held at First Presbyterian Church and Good Friday will be held at Faith. 

The service was one of Tennebre with varying degrees of darkness after each lesson was read.  By the end of the service the sanctuary was in darkness.  At the end of the service we were asked to leave quietly.  It is amazing how so many people can leave a service without talking. 

Thus began our journey through Holy week.

Have a wonderful day
