Tuesday - January 13

Woke up this morning to very heavy rain and lightning... a rare occurrence here in Marathon,     It didn't last long but sure left huge areas of water (just no place to drain down here).   Rest of the day was beautiful!   Philip and Annette came and we were off to Sunset Grille for breakfast where we met Jane and Joe - excellent food here and in such a pretty setting.    Their Bananas Foster French Toast is absolutely wonderful!!!  

YUMMY stuff !!!
 
Then we were off to the playground and Luke had so much fun - Jane and Joe came, too!
 
Such a great playground - thanks again for "discovering" it, Jane and Joe.
 
From the playground to the Aviation Museum where we took a bunch of pics, including this one of an old Ozark airplane which is now permanently on exhibit here in Marathon.   
 Princess Grace was once a passenger. 
 
This plane flew in and out of Bloomington many times...
 
Mark and Philip picked up some Mexican and Cuban food for lunch and we ate on the picnic table and then played dominoes (won by Philip...again) while Luke napped.    Then to the pool!
 
A rarity -  Mark in the pool
 
Philip - Luke - Annette
 
Jane and Joe came over and we played 5-handed euchre (won by me) and Philip and Luke walked the docks.   
 
Another winner..
 
Miss Blair wearing shirt from Grandma that says "the apple of my eye"! 
Indeed she is!
 
We went to Upper Crust for delicious pizza tonight - 1st visit there and we'll go back for sure.    Luke is back on Daisy - last night with us!   Sure gonna miss this little man!   What fun we've had....
 
Looking forward to Allie and Owen coming to Marathon tomorrow for a few days and we know there will be many laughs and much fun.    They will be staying with Jane and Joe!  
  Safe travels from Northport!

Hi Mark and Pat!
Was wondering if you were still babysitting Luke. Jim had your blog opened so caught up with your adventures. So lucky to spend one on one with your grandchildren - missing ours. Think I'll finally get back to my blog tonight, but will have to start from the Big Island and maybe do weekly and then go backwards hopefully. Oh well. Was too absorbed reading Black Wolf, but now I can return to my blog. Lol
Looking forward to our get together in March. Take care. Say hi to Philip and Annette.
