Lot Of Events Going On

One tired dog.
Brian and Linda Hoyt from Vermont.

Brian and Linda at the French Connection Restaurant.

Big party at Christine and Jerry's to celebrate
the fact that his term as President of the board was over!
Bob, Bob, John and Fred...I think. (I had just met him.)
Me, Sandy and Susan...yapping away.

Joyce and Dave with "ONE" of their labs.
He loves to go for rides and wear his hat and glasses.

Try clicking on this picture to enlarge, in the crotch of
the tree you will see an owl. She is sitting on her nest.
Hard to see her because she fits in so well with her background.
There were several things going on last week. One was the party at Jerry and Christine's, for the end of the President of the board term for Jerry. He was so glad to be done with that job.
Then, we hooked up with Brian and Linda who we met last year in Key West. They are staying down by Ft Myers Beach, so we met for dinner in the river district of Ft Myers. We had such a nice visit. We are thinking that we might meet at Barefoot Beach next week one day.
There is a family of owls nesting in the grove. They have babies...not hatched yet, but the mom and dad are always around. It is hard to see her because she blends in so well with her environment. It is fun to see them fly.
Saturday, Christine, Peggy and I went to a huge flea market in Ft Myers. I am not sure I have ever been to one that was that big. There was everything from plants, fresh fish, socks, jewelry, pool sticks...you name it. Probably will drag John there one weekend.
Time is running out here. We are leaving here on the 12th of April, so will have to wrap all
the house things up pretty soon. I think we are almost done. We should have some more pictures of the house next week. They are putting the trusses up.
We have new neighbors with an 18 month old golden lab named Miya? (pronounced my-ya)
We let Maddie and her off leash out here and they run around and around in circles until they are totally spent. That picture was taken after an afternoon of fun.
