Wednesday - February 9

Nice gentle rain overnight and ending around 8ish this morning.   It was chilly, but wow....the sun came out around 10 and then temps climbed and it was a gorgeous day.

We met our long-time Reefpoint Marina (Racine, WI) boating friends for lunch at Buckingham Farms.    They came from Venice (2 couples) and Fort Myers Beach.    So missed Barbara and Mark (she's having the back issues).    What a beautiful afternoon to sit on the patio and visit over wine, sangria and 2 desserts (thank you Costco and Publix).

Mark, Pat, Ken, Cathy, Bob, Carol, Paul, Kathy

Thanks to neighbor Martin for taking the picture.

I walked over to chat with Jim and Lydia while Mark went across the street to help with Buddy and JoAnn's computer issues (modem).    Looks like Optic-tel will have to come and bring new modem.   

Light supper tonight after our big lunch/dessert.
