Saturday we started with a pig roast at the clubhouse. It was well attended and lots of good food. The entertainment was also excellent with Crystal Gage and husband Bryan. The play country music. They're a couple that just had twins last year and tell tales on the kids and tease each other. Bryan plays the fiddle which is outstanding. (Click on the photos to enlarge).
These are some photos of the fun night.
Sunday, we went to pick up my sister Doris in Sebring. While we were there we ate at the Blue Lagoon. It's a go to place and half way point from her winter home in Okeechobee. We got back home about 4:30. We visited and relaxed the rest of the evening along with planning what we were going to do for the week.
Monday, we went to Tampa to check the downtown area and where we wanted to get a hotel close to the Texas de Brazil restaurant for our anniversary on March 28. I'll write more on the location and what we'll do when I do end of the month blog. We drove down Bay Shore and Davis Island looking at the beautiful homes. It was a full day.

Tuesday, Sis and I were on our own. We went downtown Lakeland to the Subs and Such for Cuban, Meatball, Ruben, and Italian sandwiches. We ate one while there and brought the rest home for lunch the next day. We went to the Lakeside Village outdoor shopping area. We had a great time shopping for cruise and getting new tops for both of us. Some stores had very high prices and others had reasonable prices. To top off the day we went to Parksdale for the strawberry shortcake.
We also stopped for a few groceries. When we got home we unloaded a full car. The evening was watching Super Tuesday voting around the country. (Note: for later Biden won).
Wednesday, was a low key day. We weren't in any hurry to do much. I have hand and foot card game on Wednesdays so we both went over to play. It was a great afternoon. We also had the 15 week pizza party at 5:00. It's something the park does every year. Starting in October you pay $15 for a token with a number. Every Wednesday at coffee, they draw two numbers and you win $25. At the end of 15 weeks we have a pizza party and all the tokens are redrawn for another chance to win $25. It brings the community together for some food and a chance to win money.
Thursday, we took sis back to Sebring to Blue Lagoon. Her hubby drops her off and picks her up instead of us going two hours to Okeechobee and back we meet half way. Herm, her hubby suggested taking Amtrak. They're going to do that for our anniversary. If it works out we'll be going back and forth a lot more. I'll be sure to tell about it.
Friday, I worked at Hospice. They are getting ready for the kids camp for bereavement. I'm doing the data entry for participants so will be working more days and longer hours in the next couple weeks. Jim went to the symphony in Tampa again and I'm catching up on TV shows.
We're watching the news on the Coronavirus. I'm putting this in the blog for future reference. We use the blog a lot for info and the more important topics. There's more and more dying with the virus, but it seems to be the elderly and not younger people.
