Happy New Year

We are now pretty much over the cruise and have returned to Earth!  Aunt Jean arrived yesterday so we are planning to take her around to various places this week.  Daytona Beach is hosting a watercolor exhibit of Old Florida!

She had previously shipped all her painting supplies.  The suitcase of her supplies was larger and much heavier than her suitcase of clothes for 30 days! She is so very organized and you can tell she loves to paint!! 


She also has guests from Wisconsin coming to see her next week in her ocean front 2 bedroom in Flagler Beach.  

Reese is fine now after a bout with hot spots.  They had to clip his tail again (just like in August when we gone to NYC)  His new meds fight allergies, but I personally think his latest bout was due to separation anxiety.  However, he does seem more sparkly and energetic than last week, so this med is working at some level.  We plan to be gone for a week in mid-March and perhaps we will have some more of these meds here.

Honey Bell oranges are now available!  Yum.  We plan to get some at the Farmer's Market this weekend.  If they sell Honey Bells in your grocery store, you will not regret trying them!  Our neighbor dropped off some grapefruit and some lemons for us.  We don't need a citrus tree with all of these fruit gifts. . so very nice.

We saw George Clooney in "The Descendants" and we disagree about its "likableness."  I gave it a B minus and Patrick gave it less.  The plot line is basically about a man trying to find his dying wife's lover.  I think George Clooney is pretty dreamy so it ranked high for me right away.  I agree the plot was a little fantastic and unbelievable.  But George Clooney is George Clooney.

I'm working this week for CFA trying to identify some grants from local and regional foundations to support our educational campaigns. Wish me luck!

That's it from our house to yours.

Cheers and Happy New Year!
