Tuesday - March 20

H A P P Y   S P R I N G

Very windy today, but what fun we had with Allie and Owen.....they picked us up at 9:30 and we visited for a bit and then we showed them our clubhouse and pool and off to Manatee Park.  


Allie and Owen on a little tour of Cypress Trail

  We were very pleased to see so many manatees today....some really big ones, too.

One of many we saw

Left the park and drove downtown and had delicious lunch at Cabos Cantina - excellent "gold" margaritas and seafood enchiladas.   This place has the best Mexican fare...

Tomorrow we had planned to fly to DC to see Ryan and the cherry blossoms.    They are predicting 4-6" of snow, so thankful that it wasn't meant to be this week.....Mark needs an x-ray, weather will be awful and those trees are not budding out any time soon!


Luke and Maeve went to the Science Center in Hickory today.
They are checking out "Pedro", a 60-year old tortoise

Weather was certainly in the news again today. terrible damage in Alabama and some nasty heavy storms in the Midwest and Florida, flooding in the west and another big nor'easter coming again to the east coast.

  Strong winds, heavy rain and lightening for us late this afternoon.
