Day two in Leesburg

We have a problem brewing.  PJ is really liking this life -- drive around in a Town Car, living in a wonderful lake house, being treated like royalty.  I will have my hands full when we get back to KC to get him 'adjusted' to real life -- taking out garbage, doing laundry, eating at McDonald's, etc.  I may need a lot of help or even an intervention to bring him back to ......

Our digs on the lake in Leesburg

We had a busy day yesterday.  We picked up Marcella's sister at the assisted living place and took her and her husband to their house.  There were some items that Curly wanted to give to Marcella.  So we wrapped the glass items in bubble wrap, loaded them in the car and took the whole crew to dinner for Curly's 90th birthday celebration and Gene's 91st birthday.  They really enjoyed the outing and were tired by the time we got them back to their place. 

We also toured Marcella's old neighborhood and she saw some of her old friends.  They were pretty surprised to see her and arranged a neighborhood gathering for Thursday evening so she could see all the people she knew there.  What a great surprise for her!

It was pretty late when we got back to the digs on the lake, but it was a satisfying day.  Today is lunch with a co-worker (with a few margaritas) and dinner with another co-worker (and really good friend of Marcella's).

Observation:  This is my (Bob's) first visit to this part of Florida.  Pretty different than the Naples area.  A lot of large lakes and multiple small communities.  Good to see it.


P.S.  PJ wants everyone to know he's fine!!

  1. I am glad to know that PJ is fine. I am a little worried about you Bob. You must get PJ under control unless you decide to hire a house servant when you get back to KC.

    By the way, I love reading your blog. I wish we were with you guys. We sure miss you here.
