We were up and out Daisy's door by 7:45. Kathy and Paul were to join us, but both were not feeling well last night, so....bummer! We stopped at The Grind (cute coffee café that Connie had told us about) - neat décor and very good (we'll be back)! Then we were on our way to Venice. We shopped about 1/2 hour - lots of people on the streets of this charming town.
This cute painted turtle is just one of several artistic turtles, fish and other sea life around the downtown Venice area.
Met at Carol and Bob's home along with Mark and Barbara who drove down from Anna Maria Island. We all were on E-12 at Reefpoint Marina for many years and this has gotten to be a yearly event in February to get together and catch up. After a 1-hour visit, we drove to Snook Haven in south Venice and what a very old, quaint Florida place this is on the Myakka River. Lots of people there, we sat outside and enjoyed the lovely day and food was wonderful!
