Sunday - January 8

 Sunny Sunday - went to 9:30 Mass at St. Francis and then on the lookout for a coffee shop - choices downtown are minimal with Peter's closing and Starbucks destroyed by Ian.    Online showed "Shift" in the new West End - City Walk apartments.   It's a small place and they had one lonely little cinnamon roll (guy said we need to find a source for pastries)?   Yup! They've been open a year....no decaf for Mark or able to make an Americano decaf.    I got my 1st latte in over a week and then we went to Publix and got 2 apple fritters and on home.

Got the laundry started and did some light housekeeping and organizing in Flo and the she shed.

This fall someone here in the park told us a "must go" restaurant that was a favorite for them was "The Gathering Place"........it got great reviews and we had planned to try it only to read online today that it's closing after 9 successful years.    Circumstances beyond the owners control is the cause for the closing.   Bummer....

Tonight we met our soon-to-be-new neighbors (moving in Wednesday).   Gary and Brenda from near Kansas City were to move in today, but their  renters are still using the lot (camper and 2 trucks).    Apparently a miss-communication between the rental office and the Texas guys (roofers) cause they won't be off the lot till Wednesday.   Had a nice visit and look forward to having them next door.   The 2 groups will switch places on Wednesday.

Miss Maeve may be a budding fiddle/violinist???

Sibling zoom tonight with 9 on hand covering a variety of subjects!   

Have a great week!
