Lawn Bowling











Have you ever heard of Lawn Bowling?  Have driven past this place a few times.  A bunch of retired people all dressed in white rolling balls on a nice green lawn.  These people are really into it.  If you were wondering, here are the Rules to Lawn Bowling.

Venice Beach, FL




"Nautical Houses"


Found these while Geocaching...cool!

Visitors in the last week


I had the privilege of having Ren and Mike come out for a visit to Sarasota.  They were nearby in Orlando taking their girls for their 5th birthday to Disney World.  Ren was a patient of mine a few years ago back in Michigan.  Ren and Mike are also the ones who got me hooked on Geocaching.  We had a good visit, we did some geocaching of course, we had a good dinner out at Olive Garden and did some reminiscing of Ren's stay at Saint Mary's and catching up on each others lives.  Thanks Ren and Mike for the visit! 



Hardly a day after Ren and Mike came, Uncle Pete and Aunt Tina sent an email saying they were nearby and would I like to garb something to eat with them.  We met at Applebee's and had some wonderful food.  I mostly hear how Uncle Pete and Aunt Tina are doing through mom, so it was nice to visit with them first hand and see how they are doing.  It is nice to learn that they are busy traveling around the US seeing new places with their small camper during their retirement years and that they are having fun and enjoying their children and grand children.  Sounds like they are enjoying themselves as well.  Uncle Pete says, "As long as we are together, we are doing good."  That's what I like to hear.  Thanks for coming!
