DAY 49: SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 30, 2019: SAYING GOODBYE TO PATTY AND TOM

Today, i slept later today. Patty and Tom headed out very early, stealthily! They were going snorkling and kayaking. Very easy guests. 

Happy 62 anniversary, Gordon and Joan. So happy for you!

Yesterday they helped us get Geri’s tree up before we went to Burdines. By 6:30 pm it was so so dark. Hard To believe we were all so tired!

Again the capitals and spelling are going crazy. I’ve looked it up and still no relief. Something new on this crazy device. I never saw this before, and it’s driving me nuts. 

I had planned to make pancakes for all of us for breakfast. I have so many blueberries I had to use them.. The pancakes were good and filled with fruit.

Yummy! I made them big so I could make less. 

These kids have so much fun. Leo, always the lumberjack, ready to help cut down their. Christmas tree at the tree far. What memories!

IS STELLA HOI G TO HELP CARRY THAT BIG TREE?


LUMBERJACK LEO

Today is a beautiful sunny warm day in the Keys. As we leave tomorrow, we will probably hit heaby rain and ugh, a snow storm the further north we get. I don’t want to be cold but I do want to see my family. 

We heard from Sharon and Paul. We hope to see them when we get home. So many great memories of our quiet summer nights on their boat, sipping wine and the boys smoking a cigar. 

Time to start packing. Well, I won’t have to bring any summer clothes. Packing is not fun. I asked Todd for a weather report. There are all kinds of storms everywhere moving East. We are boubd to hit some weather we do t want. It is December after all. 

Tonight we go to Marathon Community Theater with Grace, Werner, Geri, and Bill after going to the Cracked. Conch for dinner. I like the conch but the fried doesnt like me especially at 3:00. 

The show is Greatsr Tuna, a funny story about small town morals and mores, should be hysterical.Two characters are playing 20 characters.

Spent the day making shell napkin rings- kind of cute! 

Tom and I put away the table, rug, bikes, and everything else that would be out in the weather while we are home. 

We visited with carl, linda and their daughters. Beautiful family. We will miss them while we are gone. 

Tom washed my car and we closed up the table, bikes, rug, and other outside set up to store while we are gone.

At 6:30 we met the crew at the Cracked Conch for dinner then on to the theater to see Greater Tuna. It was hysterical. 

By the time we returned home, it was 10:30. We have an early start tomorrow. Time to sleep.

LEO CLIPPING THE BOTTOM PIECES OF THE TREE BEFORE IT IS PUT UP

Todd and i chatted this afternoon about the hunt for the tree. Michelle and I talked about Christmas gifts for the kids. 25 days until Christmas.

Sharon and Paul invited us to dinner on Friday night. So many fun things to look forward to.
