Tuesday - April 5

 Happy and thankful that my biopsy results finally came back - benign!!!    Sutures come out Thursday!   Yeah!

After the rain last night (1.65") today was sunny/cloudy, breezy and hot - going to be in the 90's for next few days.    Mark took me to get a mani-pedi and he enjoyed a light breakfast at Cafe Flore.    He waited for me with his I-pad and made some phone calls - getting appts set up for when we're back in Bloomington.

I did a bunch of texts/e-mails setting up meeting with friends when we're in IL.    We also drove over to Cypress Woods a nearby RV resort that has been there 10-15 years before Cypress Trail.    It has lots of large park model homes, no tiki huts, but most RV'ers have a shed and gazebo.    It was fun driving around and also seeing the brand new area under construction which will be quite upscale from what we've heard!

Joe and Joan (Mark's sister) came in the afternoon with an array of makings for Joan's old fashioneds.    She brought the ice and glasses, too.    Joan muddles the fruit (fresh oranges and special cherries from Amazon).     They were delicious!!!!

Perfection!

We had such a good time and Mark helped them with some travel logistics for their trip home (they leave Sunday) and upcoming trips.     We then went downtown to Capone's for pizza/salad/bruschetta, wine and beer.    We had a 45-minute wait but well worth it!    So fun to be together and we've so enjoyed them being in FL this winter!

Tomorrow night we'll be together again with more family.
