A Day Spent with Friends



I let Captain Mark sleep really late this morning as he needed to catch up on his sleep – he needs more beauty rest than I do – and I called our friends Eleanor and Harold who spend the winter months in the area. We were excited to see them and we hoped that they would have time to visit with us. We were very fortunate in that they were available. They came to the marina to pick us up during the early afternoon bringing us the largest and most delicious fresh strawberries. They gave us a wonderful tour of Dunedin, Clearwater, Clearwater Beach, Indian Rocks, and Lake Seminole. We would never have been able to see these places without local guides. The homes are lovely to say the least. For a mid-afternoon break, Eleanor and Harold showed us their home as we relaxed to catch our breath. Then it was off to dinner to a wonderful restaurant that we reached just in time to still qualify for the early bird specials. Dinner was absolutely yummy and I would recommend Rumba Island Bar & Grill very highly. Amid hugs, we said our good-byes and we thanked them for a fantastic day.

PS Nancy, you have terrific parents!!

Hey,

Those are four great looking people if I say so myself. You can tell that group is retired!
