It’s evening alteady! We’re just home from a new dinner spot in Mount Dora. It was friends night out with Elaine and Roger, Deenna and Eddie, Rose & Jim, Pat and Ken and us. The restaurant is called. Magical Meat Boutique British Pub. It’s quirky and fun. Everybody seemed happy with their fare. I had fish ‘n chips and Mark ordered the BIG shrimp and chips. (The shrimp were big!). We took the long way home along Lakeshore Drive. There have been quite a few mansions spring up since our last ride. 

Earlier this evening, we popped in at Candi and Jim’s house. Their daughter Riley has graduated second year nursing college, and next week graduates from high school. Yeah, that sounds backwards. She’s obviously quite brilliant. There were a lot of teenagers in the pool playing volleyball, so we went inside where the adults were hanging out. We couldn’t stay too long because of our friends night out commitment. Riley’s grandparents are in town celebrating with them. There is a table set up with all of Riley’s awards and sports achievements.  🥳 Congratulations! 

We have a cardinal nesting just outside our screen porch. They pick the oddest places. There are two speckled eggs laid.  

There’s always something going on at our house, maintenance wise. I went outside this morning and found Mark on the roof. He was tucking screen into various spaces to keep the bugs out. 

Funhouse pucture! 🤣

It’s front porch sitting time while Mark has a cigar and the dogs enjoy some chicken chips. Ta ta til tomorrow.
