Good morning sunshine! We had a bit of rain overnight ... and our boat mechanic is scheduled for today. Yay! 



Mechanic Rob arrived around 1030 and Mark spent the next couple of hours cleaning and vacuuming it while Rob worked. It was quite the job to get to the voltage regulator. Now, we just have to take the boat for a ride and make sure all is well.

Sue is still laid up with an ice pack on her knee while Wayne does the household chores. He was at Publix first thing this morning but still couldn’t get everything they needed. The virus cases continue to climb in Florida and there is a cruise ship with 4 dead on board and many active cases of the coronavirus. It’s unclear at this point if the ship will be allowed into port Everglades. It’s horrible! Many of the passengers are Americans, Canadians and British. 

Our Florida governor has finally decided to put the entire state on a ‘stay at home order’ ... and it’s about time.  

Rick FaceTimed us today and we had a good chat. He and Ruth are working on their raised garden beds getting their vegetables started for the summer season. His leg is doing very well now ... 99% healed. Ruth actually came into the picture for a few minutes and we caught up on some of her news too. It sure looks like it’s going to be an ‘at home’ summer for everyone.

At 4:30 we had a social distance happy hour with Kim Bob, Pat & Ken, Marky-Mark and Lynn. Everyone brings their their own drinks and snacks and we all sit 6 feet apart at least. 









By this time, Pat and Ken had gone home to feed Sadie. 

We came home at 5:30 and had homemade turkey rice soup, took the dogs for a golf cart ride and then settled in to watch some TV. 

Randy & Dawn called and we caught up with their news. They’ve been enjoying sitting on the dock in the evenings in this beautiful weather. Dawn has been working in the pharmacy department now, and finally the plexiglass screens are being installed. This is a whole new way of doing business and it’s taking businesses forever to get into the new routines. Dawn needs the time towards her retirement plan. 

We hope everyone is staying safe and taking precautions. 🥰
