Dinner

The son and wife did it again........Supper last night was great, Todd BBQ'ed four different flavoring of ribs, two dry and two wet. All four flavorings were soooo good. Shannon made her mouth watering cold slaw and homemade macaroni and cheese mmmmmm. Once again ate too much. The evening ended with a noisy game of Bull S--t.

Almost time for Aaron's graduation, our cruise and then the traveling verity's will be at it again. First stop will be Jim and Claire's in Minnesota, Mom and Cecil's in Canada then back to home1, we're getting anxious to see our lawn and home.

The Rainy Season is here

Middle of May and the rainy season has started. Last three days mornings are hot and in the afternoon the rains come so hard you can barely see across the street, it cools down but then becomes humid.
Have started the good byes with new friends we've made here. Some have already left for up North, others planning on the move in the next few days and Doug and I will be heading out in less than a month.
Aaron will graduate on the 29th and we take him on a cruise the 30th. We're looking forward to our time alone with him before he starts on his "grown-up" life, into the "real" world. Like his siblings I know he will do well.

Doors














































It has taken a while but we finally have our doors painted and the new screen doors on. Thank goodness the weather has cooperated as we had at least one door off for three/four days at a time while they were being painted. Turned out pretty good although even with putting on a primer coat it took three coats to get them the way we wanted.


















Had a very nice Saturday with Todd and Shannon. They took us to Clearwater and then to Tarpon Springs. Visited with Shannon's Grammy and then had a seafood lunch, she-crab soup (of course being the seafood lover, NOT, I had a sandwich). Tarpon Springs is a very fun place to visit, it's a Greek Sponge Diving village. We had supper there and the food was great, every one tried a different Greek dish.

It was a wild and fun night!
