We joined our
Legal Beagle friend Gail Grossman for her birthday lunch at Evans Prairie
Country Club on Friday. Gail’s swim teammates LuAnn and Lin were also on hand
to roast Gail a bit and enjoy the festivities. Lin is from England, and her
brother is a competitive hot air balloonist; one of her best stories was when
her brother invited her to take a peek in the balloon’s wicker basket before a
flight. She got in just to look around, but was shocked when her brother cast
off the mooring lines and took her up several thousand feet for a long ride. “Thanks, Bro!” (Okay, that’s probably
not exactly what Lin said at that point, but after all, this is a G-rated blog.)
Sunset is probably
my favorite time of day. When we were cruisers (sailing full-time), and only at
anchor or at a marina, it was the time to have friends over for “sundowners”, otherwise
known as cocktail hour ashore. We would watch the sun set, ooh and ahh, and
listen to other cruisers blow horns made of conch shells. Now, we often sit on
the lanai with a glass of wine and enjoy the light show. Last night was no
exception; Mother Nature graced us with a beautiful display of “light on clouds”...
not many artists can match this reality!
Ty, your parking photos are too funny....
