The good weather continues. Up at 7:00 AM to walk and feed the dogs, Tina got up while I was out and started the coffee. Later after breakfast we decided to do nothing today. So we spent the day relaxing, reading and walking the kids.
After lunch Tina and I spent some time researching places to go in the area so we could put together a calendar for the next two months. We located a dog park and a dog beach, several Preserves and Botanical Gardens, a couple of special beaches we want to go to, a place to visit in the Everglades and a bout ride down to Key West from Marco Island.
Later in the afternoon we joined about 75 other residents at the pool and clubhouse for a special “Welcome Back Snowbirds” dinner. This consisted of several teams competing in a small putt-putt golf tournament around the pool cheered on by all the bystanders. Great fun for all! After the contests ended everyone moved into the clubhouse to our dinner tables while the event organizers awarded prizes for the best golf scores, the most outrageous golf outfit and the best guess for the number of golf tees in a big gallon jar. We started off the meal with a fruit plate then took our plates and went to the kitchen for mashed potatoes, gravy, green beans, fried chicken and a roll. For desert there was a large piece of pineapple pudding cake with coffee.
Dinner was followed by live music and dancing. We stayed for about an hour then walked home.
