1/1/10 - Marathon, Florida

Judy, Lou, and George set out for parts unknown into the Gulf of Mexico

Returning safely back to the mother ship.

Today was another relaxing day with a late breakfast and lunch, and everyone chose to either lounge at the beach, read, watch a foot-ball game, ride around in the dinghy, or spend time on the computer. Late in the afternoon the predicted cold front was ushered in by heavy wind and rain for a short time, but when the air cleared, we went out for dinner at "Porky's", a local favorite of George's, for barbecued ribs and fried shrimp. We had a great time soaking up the "ambiance" of this shack on the water, where we sat at picnic benches with paper towel napkins, and ate great food while listening to Jimmy Buffett music performed by a local guitarist/singer. It was a terrific evening!

  1. I really enjoy reading your blog. What a trip!! I'm jealous. Could you send me your email address? It would probably be best if you sent it via snail mail to our house in Allamuchy. I would like to correspond with you. I have an article or two that I think you would enjoy reading.
