Monday - March 11

88 today - throw in some humidity, too!    Mark exercised, I walked and rode my bike and then later, we were off to downtown and lunch at The Veranda.    We met Shirley and Dick from Dixon (Mark's hometown) who are in Naples for 2 months.    Shirley and I went all thru grade/high school together and Dick was 3 years ahead in high school.    This is our 3rd year to get together and always a good time with so much catching up!!!

Awesome afternoon at The Veranda

So we sat outdoors in the courtyard - so pretty with an occasional breeze under the umbrella and nice music.    Almost 3 hours later we were on our way with the hope that next year, we would get together at least 2x......come see where we live and we'll go to Naples and see them (with eating involved, of course)!!!

Stopped at the Java House (Mark's sweet tooth needed a fix) and along with iced coffees (and a big ole chocolate chip cookie for Mr. Sweet Tooth), we were happy campers.     Back to Flo and enjoyed the AC for a few hours and did 2 loads of laundry before venturing out to get some more exercise.

Stopped and visited with Chris and Tracy (last year's neighbors), Jim and Lydia.    Leftovers for supper.

Walked some more and got my steps for the day!
