Fun with Sis - Hawk - Commissary

 Auburndale, FL  (Hi 74  Lo 54)

Monday while working at hospice we had a visitor watching over the place. (Click on photos to enlarge). 

Tuesday my sister, Doris came up from Okeechobee. She hasn't been here since they arrived in October. The Covid is keeping her away, but it's been a year with Covid around and she wanted time with me. We had a great two days together. We went to Strawberry Hut for a Cuban sandwich then to Parksdale both in Plant City, FL for Strawberry shortcake. That's the second time for us so far. I'll go a couple more times I'm sure before spring. 

The veggies and fruit plus strawberries that they sell. 
Once we had lunch we went to Bed, Bath and Beyond to see what we really can't do without. We both love that store and I had a $10 coupon that was burning my pocket. I did get a set of sheets. Jim makes a super great tuna casserole so he was in charge of dinner. We had a wonderful visit and Wednesday she left about 2:00. We just chilled out and watched the birds and alligator in the lake. We did a mile walk about the park and said hi to those on golfcarts. 

Saturday we went to Tampa to try a BBQ restaurant with Lessie and Ed.  We had puzzles to exchange. We're passing them between us. She finds them in thrift stores. We went to the MacDill AFB commissary for the first time in a long time. It took an hour to get stuff and another hour to put it away. I separated chicken and hamburger to smaller portions. I think we're setup now for a couple months. It's always good going to the commissary. It's just a little far for us just to get groceries. 
C-17 Cargo coming in for a landing on base as we were leaving the commissary.
There's a plane on base that's called the Doomsday plane. Read about it here.  We think it's being worked on. 
Extra things this week. I made a couple BB8 from the Star Wars series. I'm working on another puzzle  and crocheting another Nativity set.

Looks like you had fun with your sister.
The drive to the Base may be far but if it saves you money and you enjoy the ride it's worth it.
Nice Sunset pictures.
Be Safe and Enjoy the sunshine.

It's about time.
