It has been just over a week since we arrived in Florida and
it’s been a great start to our winter. There is always the start up of
groceries and settling in but every year it takes us less and less time. The exceptional
weather has given us daily pool time willing us to relax and soak up some sun
and get a base for our tans. It feels so
good to feel the sun infuse the body bringing life to the tired bones. It
energizes and yet calms the soul and all seems right with the world.
The fish is a delicious as I remember and the grilled Mahi
is still my favorite. Melt in your mouth delicious. Our favorite little Mexican restaurant,
Azteca, survived the off season (many don’t) as it is not a chain and depends
on the local economy. It is authentic and serves the best guacamole made right
at your table, not to mention the to die for Margaritas. Everything on the menu is good and everybody
has their favorites.
American thanksgiving was spent with our friends at a
country club which served a most spectacular Thanksgiving buffet lunch.
Following the meal we came back to Harbour
Isle to swim off our dinner. It was a lovely day and we enjoyed the
company of our winter friends.
This week seems like a quiet week so far although things
always pop up for us to do. Tuesday, Roger starts his painting with his plein
air group and is looking forward to it. Wednesday I slip back into the meditation
group here in Harbour Isle which I have really missed. Friday is the HIE Christmas Party , Saturday
we are invited to a boat parade party and Sunday is the Santa parade and tree
lighting downtown. We will keep busy! :) Hmm…,maybe its not such a quiet week after
all.
Hope you are all warm and cozy and not too stressed by the
holiday season. Stay safe on those
winter roads. Take care all!
Carol
