This morning we did a two miler along Deerfield Beach. It had just stopped raining so it was nice and cool for the walk. We met a couple doing three miles who were in their eighties. Talk about healthy. The little old guy did not look to well, but he had to be in good shape to walk as he did. Dot said she marveled at them for being able to do that much. Then I cracked my whip and we moved on two mile two. We’ll get back to three some day.
We thought of the I-Max. Well we did not make it to the I-Max to see Night in the Museum because it cost too much there and we had just seen it at a regular theater. We did however drive by it on our way to the River Walk for a little more exercise.
We ate lunch a Birney’s Irish Grill on the River Walk. Not bad and if I can get the picture loaded you will b e able to see where we walked and ate in the afternoon.
From there we went to the Jungle Queen for an excursion of some of the most expensive homes and yachts in the world. Ft. Lauderdale is the yacht capitol of the world. At lest that is what the guide told us and fr
om the looks of some of them he was right. Some of the homes we saw made the best of Newport Beach look like low income housing. Quite a few big celebrities and sport team owners as well as players own or have lived in many of the more elaborate homes. One of the houses is 24,000 sq. feet and has a crew that does nothing but care for its upkeep. The guy that owns it also has several other properties for his kids and sister. He owns Waist Management, Auto Nation, the Florida Panthers and some other stuff…. The cruse was three hours and we did end up on an island, but not Gilligan’s.

We got up and this morning for another beach walk. Dot is not totally overjoyed with so much walking but it beats house work and laundry. That was waiting for us when we got back. What a life style.
Sue just picked Dot up to spend the night and help her close down her classroom tomorrow so I get tp batch it for a while. I think I’ll mosey on down to the beach and read a little Harry Potter.
Blessing all
Tom and Dot on the road again!

It sounds like you are having a great time. Bob and I have some news. We put in an offer on a three bedroom, two bathrooms, and two car garage just south of Tyler in the community of Gresham. Our offer was excepted so now we deal with inspections etc. If everything goes well we will be moved in by July 28. Keep us in your prayers that everything goes smoothly.
ReplyDeleteBob says hello. God bless you all.
Love, Bob and Marcy
