Sunday

Since we knew that Sunday we'd lose an hour we told Bob and Linda we wouldn't get to Lakeland until after lunch.  Allowed us to sleep in a bit.  

After Pat's exercises, we packed up and headed out.  Stopped in Bartow at Zaxby's for a good lunch.  Got to Bob and Linda's at 1 p.m.

Ron and Vicki arrived later to join in all the gabbing.   Had some drinks and appetizers. 

Ladies were playing some games so the guys headed over to Ron's to watch some TV and warm up some of the dinner.    

Ladies came over to finish preparing the dinner.  Fried Chicken, baked beans, and Linda's potato salad, so we ate very good.   Key Lime pie for dessert.

Monday

Bob drove Linda, Pat and I to Tarpon Springs.  Ladies were off shopping and joined us back for lunch at 11:45 at Hellas'.   Great lunch and picked up some desserts at the bakery for dinner tonight.  Forgot to get a lunch picture.

Ladies had more shopping to do so Bob and I found a bench and settled in.

We headed to Lakeland around 3,  traffic was not too bad.

Got home in time to make drinks and walk down to friends Dave and Wanda for happy hour.  They have it every night in the park for the northern Illinois folks.

Then we got our desserts and headed to Ron and Vicki's.  Cleaned up left overs and had a good portion of the desserts.

Don't ask me to name all of them, but they were very good.

Tuesday

The six of us met for Breakfast at Keke"s.  (Why is it always about eating? 😋😋

Here we are ready to eat again.

Linda, Bob, Mark


Ron, Vicki, Pat

After breakfast the Ladies headed to "one more store for shopping" and the guys headed to Bob's house.

After more chatting, games, and discussions of family history using the "Find A Grave" website the afternoon flew by.

A fun 2 1/2 days was had by all.

Ron, Vicki, Linda, Bob, Pat, Mark

Pat and I got back home around 6-ish after a stop for gas and bite to eat in Arcadia.

Always good to be home.

Connor was by our old home on Jackson Street and sent us this photo to bring back memories.  Thanks Connor
