Good morning. It was a bright beautiful start to our day as we began our house clean up for tomorrow's progressive dinner. Yes, I can hear my mother now. "Your place always looks lovely, why do you bother?" And of course I would answer that that is why I bother, as it doesn't stay looking nice all by itself, unfortunately. Ha ha. 

Mark is nursing stiff hips after climbing in and out of the wee workboat while doing the seawall beautification. (I love the job he's doing; it looks fantastic!) I'm doing his vacuuming today while he is doing errands then cleaning bathrooms. Another job has come up. Our water softener is not working like it used to. Our water has a rusty color and it wouldn't be long until our appliances and fixtures get tarnished. So, he's off to Home Depot for repair stuff. 

This evening, we are going to Randy and Dawn's for a dinner party. Friends Virginia and Bob, Randy's neighbors from Pompano, are staying with them for the weekend. It's the first time they will meet our Dawn. Robbie and BZ are coming with us. 

 

Virginia & Bob ... waiting to meet Dawn but being entertained by Mark 'n me.

Randy's dinner was fabulous. We had grouper, lobster and shrimp stuffed mushrooms, baked cauliflower and a big green salad with homemade Caesar dressing! WOWSA. Everything was superb. 

 

For dessert, we had Keylime pie.

We would have liked to have stayed longer, as it was, we were not home until nearly midnight. Doggies had a good time but I think we're happy to be home and climb into their beds. Ha ha.

That's it until tomorrow.
