Amy's Wish

Off with friend Susan to see a fine local production of a Comedy where the heroine finds the fountain of youth. Also toured their small art gallery and saw a new show of really interesting and delightful paintings and photographs by locals. The play was funny and very well staged. The acting was great. What a fine matinee and just about a mile or so away from home.

 We met up with Jerry and Jan Bent at the Raymond Museum in St. Petersburg this week.  It was a good visit.  We ate at Ceviche, the Spanish tapas place I love.  Nice meal outside.  We ate a fine potatas bravas, lamb chops, and other tastes. We enjoyed the Raymond Museum for out second visit.  Large wooden sculptures are easy to see with my one eye.  Great Indian art.  Just a treat to go there. I tired easily, but what else is new?

LAZY DAY

-
I had a really tough night, waking at three thirty and awake until about six thirty, napping another hour, and then up. I had a grand breakfast of oysters.  (See oysters in butter on the recipe blog.)  For lunch I had a nice sheepshead fillet in butter and spices in the microwave, and for supper the rest of the salmon.  A fish day for sure. Mike K came over while Elizabeth went to Paul's for dancing.  We had a grand chat.  Most of it was inside, but then it warmed up a bit.  It is supposed to be warm tomorrow. Mike listened to my old teaching stories. We heard the saga of the tough time he had after the polio.  Operation after operation.  In casts for months at a time. I napped again. Then Elizabeth and I decided not to go to the arts festival. We watched four Heartland episodes.  Usually we just do three.  It is hard to quit.  At the same time a good bit gets resolved in each episode.  Rarely do they leave us hanging.  I ...

FIRST TRIP SINCE THE PANDEMIC

-
 Elizabeth and I flew from Albany to Baltimore and then on to Tampa yesterday.  The Albany flight was uncrowded and easy, but the Baltimore flight was full.  The only empty seat was next to Elizabeth. I was comfortable on the flight.  There were only 3 hours in the air and since that was broken up, I did not even have to use the bathroom on the place. I did not like the crowds in Baltimore.  It was unreal.  I guess everyone was busting out of lockdown.  I am happy to be fully vaccinated and would not have wanted that experience before now. Elizabeth packed some lamb sandwiches and we had them while we waited for maintenance to fix the exit sign.  We had been boarded first as I was in a wheelchair.  So, we had a fine uninterrupted time to eat and clean up before the rush. Mike K. was right there to pick us up from luggage.  The guy who wheeled me down actually got our bags for us as well.  I tipped $5.  Once home we unpacke...
