Wednesday - January 4

What a big difference today with 65 degrees and sunshine!    Mark was up early and very happy that after more investigating, he found a loose wire which needed to be hooked up for the air/heat.    We are good to go....he was upset he didn't find that earlier (wasn't from lack of trying).  We did our exercises and left Lantana at 8:45.   Planning on 5 leisurely days to get to Marathon in the Keys.

We went under 17 bridges with 7 of them having to be raised.    The mansions and yachts along the way made for lots of oohs, aahs, drooling, and overall stunned to see all this opulence - one right after the other!

We are in downtown Fort Lauderdale and have been in this area before (by car) and the shops and restaurants of Las Olas.....however, they are all closed up and now doing a major renovation with hopes of bringing back the businesses which suffered greatly from the economy.    This all from a security guard we talked to.    Enjoyed a nice walk on this pretty day and even picked up a few more things at Publix.

GREAT news.....Mark's Mom was discharged from the hospital late this afternoon.    She has a list of restrictions for the next several weeks of no twisting, bending, arching or rotating her spine.  She will be having therapy eventually and I, for one, know how very important that is!   Now praying for full healing and mobility!

Mark grilled out brats and enjoyed a nice dinner on Catrina!
