Monday

Last day in Florida. Spent the morning packing and getting ready to leave. Looking for some blank CDs to burn some music for gramps. Gonna head to best buy later to buy him some ram, will pick up CDs there. Walked down 52 and ended up at a sports bar for lunch. Listening to a john madden sound-a-like describe his interactions with a traffic cop to two nodding friends. It’s been a good trip. Leaving at 5 to make my flight at 7pm.

Sunday

I’m feeling very relaxed here. I got to drive down the perilous 19 earlier on the way back to gramps from the mall. We stopped there for an early dinner after spending time at Fred Howard park. Despite the beach being closed we were still able to find a pocket of sand next to the water to wade in. It was peaceful and windy. It was great. Heading out in a bit I see Gran Torino. Cheers!

Sunday morning

Nick had his golf game rained out today. Heh. Gramps is at church then we’re heading to the beach this afternoon. After that mybe seeing Gran Torino and exploring a local mall. Overall relaxing. Woo!

Saturday

Went to the sponge docks this morning. Had lunch at Hellas. Took some pictures of some old boats…will post later. Picked up nick after his golf game an the three of us relaxed during the afternoon. Finished a few chapters of quicksilver then off to nicos for dinner. Ha Kentucky bourbon steak…mmmmmmmmm. Topped the evening off with ice cream near Hudson beach. Good day, feeling relaxed. Going home Monday. :D

Saturday morning

Great cool morning. Heading to the sponge docks today before my cousin finishes golfing. Then to the beach. Woo!

Friday

Went to the flea market. Met my gramps golfing buddy Lloyd, tall skinny man used to sell gold supplies from his garage. Market only had about 70% of it’s stores open. Really nice and cool here. Also met gramps neighboor Suzy who has a cute Boston accent. Her place is much larger than gramps.

Thursday evening…

Arrived at the Tampa airport and survived the 5 babies sitting at adjacent seats. Gramps gave me a tour of his condo. Resting at a gazebo outside. Nice weather :)
