We had a very nice surprise this past week when our friends from Georgia, Ken and Debora, decided to drive down for the long weekend. We had last seen them at their house in Georgia on our first trip down to Florida three years ago and after lots of invitations, they finally ran out of excuses.
It takes about seven hours to drive down but its a pretty straight shot thru Florida. The weather was great, we had lots of time to catch up. Of course, we had to show them some of the local sights. Edison and Ford Estates and the trees...
Fort Myers Beach, Nervous Nellies...
and a boat ride into the Gulf of Mexico for dolphin watching. At first we saw zip but as we got closer to Sanibel Island, we saw pods of dolphins jumping thru the water for about half hour. It was awesome.
There was lots of sitting in the pool, eating good food, talking and lots of laughs too.
And Ken even scored a free pair of shorts at one of our favorite dives, Bonita Bill's. Apparently the bar set up a table with free clothes and since Ken came to Florida in long jeans, he really needed some shorts. They had Ken's name written all over them. And the price was right too.
They are headed back yonder. I'm fixin to invite them back again real soon. Y'all. Margaret
