HAPPY BIRTHDAY today to Mark's Mom.......may she have many more happy, healthy years!
The Birthday Girl - 87 years young!!!
To back track a bit.......Mark and I got Catrina delivered to the Stuart Yacht Yard yesterday after cruising from Clewiston (54 miles and 2 locks). It was rough crossing Lake Okeechobee but then smooth sailing on the St. Lucie Canal. Greg, a neighbor and head of Stuart Yacht Yard and his wife gave Mark a ride to the car rental place. We loaded up the car and then gave Catrina a good scrubbing and rinsing of all the dirt and salt.
These rowers followed us in Catrina's wake as we were coming into our last lock.
Arrived in Lake Worth at 4:00 - so good to see the kids and talk "baby" talk! We played dominoes (Mark was the winner) and they had a wonderful "birthday" dinner for me.....delicious ribs and shrimp all topped off with a "Tuxedo" cake - yummy!!!!

They gave me a darling pair of shoes with interchangeable wide straps! And then Grandma and Grandpa just happened to have some special gifts for their baby-to-be Luke

Sunday.....Mark and Philip left early for Fort Myers to pick up our truck which was at the airport and turned in rental car. They went to 9:15 Mass and then visited Sue and Jerry!
Annette and I had a leisurely morning, sleeping in, breakfast and then 11:30 Mass. They have the most phenomenal choir/band at their church (St. Therese de Lisieux) - wow!!!! Came back home and changed clothes and off to Bedner's Farmers Market to get some goodies for dinner tonight.
Mark and Philip returned at 3:00. Leisurely afternoon, but staying indoors - it's chilly and windy here today! Delicious dinner of salmon, shrimp, asparagus, salad AND more of that scrumptious tuxedo cake. Played 2 games of dominoes after dinner with Philip and Annette, the winners!
Tonight marks the 3rd anniversary of our accident in St. Pete - shoulder is doing fine!!!
