Friday - April 5

Whew.....the heat is on down here in Fort Myers - hit 90 today!     We exercised, Mark painted the she shed doors and I cleaned Flo inside and did all the cabinetry with Murphy's Oil Soap. 

Mark is missing his good Tilley hat which he wears all the time......where oh where could it be?   We thought maybe he had it last Saturday when we went on the Babcock Ranch Eco tour, so put down the convertible top and off to the country we went.    Lots of hats/caps in their lost 'n found, but no Tilley.    We had lunch (shared a shrimp basket) at the Gator Shake, stopped at the hardware store and then the Hayloft - western wear shop.

Later this afternoon Mark went to install the enclosed blinds on doors and lo and behold......the new doors have wider panes (by 1 inch) so our blinds do not fit!!!!!!     AARRGGHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The guys came this afternoon to put the palms on the tiki hut...

Working away stapling palms to the wood frame
Quite the project, but these guys do it fast and frequently
And wah lah....all done!

Buckingham Farms serves breakfast and lunch and on Friday evenings, they have a special carry-out dinner.   You have to order online by Thursday or before and when they sell out, that's it.    So, we ordered Wednesday (2 entree choices) and picked up at 5 today.    Lots of orders waiting ......very good dinner of crab cakes, garlic mashed potatoes, green beans and a very fresh salad.    Definitely a big hit and we have leftovers!

Another winner at Buckingham Farms

Enjoy your weekend!
