The men and Lisa simply could not keep up with the fierce aquatic speed of the boys. Dylan shockingly yelled, “Hey, Wayne, when did you learn to swim so fast and shoot so hard?”

After it was over, Grandma made the announcement. “The final score is 18 to 4, in favor of Liz and the boys. Way to go, Blue Team!”

After shaking hands, the family decided to celebrate on the back deck.

As he lounged on his favorite deck chair with a glass of cold lemonade, Grandpa looked out over the expansive bay and said, “This certainly is a wonderful way to celebrate.” Then, turning to the others, he held his glass up in the air and toasted. “I really love all of you. Here’s to a wonderful family and to Seven Mile Island!” to which Grandma added, “Hear, hear, Dylan.”

That night, Grandpa ordered pizza from one of the island’s favorite eateries, Circle Pizza. The family feasted on three large, thin-crusted pies covered with deliciously seasoned tomato sauce and mounds of mozzarella cheese.

In between mouthfuls of the tasty pizza, Wayne said, “Thanks, Grandpa. This is an awesome dinner. Mmm-Mmm Mighty Good!”

When the pizza was finished, and the dishes were cleared, the family gathered in the large family room to play a board game. Despite the normal debate concerning which game to select, everyone eventually agreed to try Scrabble.

The night belonged to Grandma and Grandpa, who won just about every round. Afterward, Dylan and Christine admitted that the game was stacked in their favor.

Dylan said, “Check it out,” as he pointed up to a large trophy on top of a corner cabinet. It was engraved “1984 Avalon Yacht Club Scrabble Champions – Christine and Dylan Masters.”

The kids definitely thought that the trophy was very cool, and they congratulated their grandparents on their accomplishment. Even so, Lisa also politely suggested, “If it’s OK with you, maybe we should play a different game the next time.”

Just before falling asleep that night, Wayne and Johnny agreed to continue their exploration of the Pirate Cave in the morning.
