David enjoyed the expansive view of the 17th fairway from the patio of our new home last weekend. Our roof is almost complete, the air conditioning venting is done and our windows will be installed this week. We take up the second load of boxes in a rental van this weekend. And we will attend the graduation of our daughter Lisa from college in Gainesville this Friday. A very busy week ahead, but full of joy and appreciation! Click for a closer view.
Dinner at the Country Club, one last time! Counterclockwise from bottom left: Duke, Dodie, Luz Stella, Bob, Nikki, David. I hope "the gang" gets to enjoy a dinner together again soon. Click for a closer view.
The hardest thing sbout our move is leaving close friends behind. This evening we had our last dinner at the club, with close friends Duke and Dodie, Bob and Luz Stella. Life moves on, but I hope that our friendships will continue to stay strong. I'm gonna miss you lots, Dodie!!
With the help of our friends from Aquatic Life in Stuart, we elected to adopt out our water babies. The decision to take a break from the five year hobby was twofold: the delay in our house closing to the end of March and the difficulty in moving three tanks. We know that in Aquatic Life's hands, our fish will be well taken care of. And the tanks and equipment will be donated to the local schools. We'll be visiting Aquatic Life for a final goodbye before we leave on December 21.
We attended a very special celebration for Steve Montanino's birthday, hosted by Marga and family. Some old friends were there, and several new ones as well. The food was delicious and the company even better. Happy happy birthday, Steve!
