Cape Coral, FL - 2019

Cape Coral
 Florida
2019


  • Jaye and Dom are down there for three months so I went down as their first visitor of the season.  I only stayed a few days so that they were more sad to see me go than happy to see me go.

  • I flew down with Dawn. She, Jaye, Dom and Leon and I had dinner at her new condo.

  • Jaye and Dom are in a new place this year and it is lovely.  I had my own king sized bed.

  • It was too cold to go in the pool.  But I did use the hot tub which was delightful.

  • It rained one day but that didn't matter.  It was still nicer than my PA weather.

  • We went to a rum distillery and even rum is too harsh for me to drink.  But Dom did buy a bottle of coconut rum and he mixed it with cranberry juice and grapefruit juice and it was delicious.

  • We watched the manatees one afternoon.  They hang by the power plant.  I don't think these animal have evolved one cell since the age of the dinosaurs.

  • We went to Thomas Edison's house and I am still stunned that one person could be such a visionary.

  • Jessica Pearson came over for dinner and she and Jaye just hit it off.  It was fun to see her.  But I cried at the thought of seeing her without Darcy.  We both talked about her all night.

  • At night, we watched Jeopardy and I am always amazed at how that just draws so many people in to this match of our general knowledge.

  • We went to a high-end seafood restaurant and I had a steak.

  • The burrowing owls were back in the neighborhood and one mother popped her head up from the nest and gave us a warning to stay back.
