Monday - March 3

 Today was so much fun with my boat sisters!!!   First off, I had a good walk in the park this morning and then left to meet the girls at the Luminary Hotel and late breakfast at Ella  Mae's - yummy as always

We walked around downtown and checked out a few shops.

 Then back to Cypress Trail and a relaxing afternoon sitting on the patio.....they caught up with Mark and we had lots of laughs   At 4, we enjoyed the Mardi Gras parade here at CT.    Lots of decorated golf carts and the folks throwing out beads and candy.   Fun!

At 4:30, we girls left for downtown to have drinks on top of the Luminary at the Beacon Drinkery.   Beautiful evening to sit outside.

Time for dinner at Firestone Grill - a wonderful meal at this neat place.     Up to the SkyBar for martinis to end this very enjoyable day with my crazy, fun, awesome "boat sisters"!!!

On home and caught up with Mark and our day....also a good chat with Liam who called to check in!   Nighty night.

Today would've been Mark's mother's 99th birthday!

And 15 years ago today - 3/3/2010, Mark and I were hit as pedestrians walking across the street in St. Pete, FL....
