Saturday - January 11

 86, mostly sunny and breezy.    We went to breakfast (a regular Saturday event from 8-10 for $5 which includes, eggs, sausage, blueberry or plain pancakes, biscuits and gravy, hash browns, toast, juice and coffee!     It's quite a feast and well attended!

While in line at breakfast, we met John and Susan from Rockton, IL     Their daughter went to the same high school where Mark's sister, Janet teaches (Hononegah) and was a math whiz.    Janet teaches math and takes her kiddos on many math competitions always doing well.    She remembers Jennifer who went onto to get her doctorate and now a pharmacist.

After breakfast we set to work - I washed Flo's windows and Mark polished the stainless steel on Flo (most of her body is aluminum which we cleaned yesterday).     I also did laundry and planted my flowers.    We borrowed Jim (Mark's brother's power washer to clean u p a bit of mildew on our pavers).   Returned the washer and then ran some errands buying a few more flowers and potting soil.

Jim and Lydia are in Hawaii for about 5 weeks and will return in early February.     We miss them!

The Campbell brothers played against each other this morning - Connor's team (younger) beat the high school kids 7-5.    Both boys scored 2 goals each!.

Sooo proud of Liam making the 1st semester high honor roll at CCHS!    I'm sure Patrick is beaming from above over his boys accomplishments!

Mark found a wallet yesterday at Dillards!    Tah dah!!!

Rode our bikes around the park and then wine time on the patio.

US News and World Report named Fort Myers as the #1 spot in the country to retire!   YEAH!!!!!!!!
