Sunday we went to church

 We went to Dave Zahl’s Sunday school class about.AWE. It told us seven ways we can experience AWE.

Music, nature, buildings bing together with others experiencing joy. Moral.   I cannot remember them all.there was a good crowd. All the ministers were there. The you preacher Amanda did the service Jush did the sermon about Authority.His mother sat in front of us.

I keep thinking about our trip to Florida. Be an and John took their kids there. Catherine Bradley came and helped Rick. She brought me gifts. Two big bags of rice. Three books and a picture of Eliza.

We2@lked around the lake. I am going to go to Western to watch Tucker play basketball.

Finally Key West

 We are parking at Key West soon. It is just past 6am. My legs and feet hurt while sleeping. I woke up and got in the shower to stop the tingling.

Last night I watched the musician play the piano. He knows many songs by ear and he sings often. The people on the ship seem to love him. Maybe I will take his picture. 

Yesterday we spent the day on the Everglades looking for crocodiles but did not see any. We did see Herron and dolphins and other birds.it was very chilly. I found a bit of sun right by the captain.

The boat was a large tour boat. The captain was quite knowledgeable. Rick talked to other people I talked to the young captain who had two children. Our room is pleasant. A big dresser a, desk and a chair and closet. Rick is exercising in the small gym. We have watched some television. Rick watched footballl while I listened to music. 

Tampa Florida

We arrived about 1pm. Rick ordered a taxi  so it was easy to get to the luggage area. I hope Rick tipped the attendant. He was kind. He also pushed another old lady.  We found a taxi. It was a long way into the city. We are at an Embasy Suites., we have a living area with a sofa. I did my first,day of Nadia.

I have my writing materials right beside me. 

Tampa is a port city. Our tour boat went through the shipping part. We saw the ship that made,Rosie the Riveter famous. We saw lots of barrels fillled with oil and also ship cleaning and rebuilding sections. Then we past some gorgeous gigantic houses where Tom Brady lived. Also duplexes that were 3million dollars.

On the first boat,we,passed many college crew teams. There was grafettie on the wall that named the teams, Princeton, GW maybe Harvard.

The University of Tampa was impressive, buildings with Terra’s. It was expensive to attend. 30,000.

Rick drank a beer. I drank a Sprite.

At the BHSC

 Today we had our first bi snowstorm of the winter. No school. We had one car mishap in West Leigh but I did not see it. I only read about it. 

I am waiting for Rick. I walked on the Walking machine for ten minutes and the lifted four pound weights. There are people here but it is not crowed. We came here in Rick’s new Acura. He gave his old one to Walker. Well he sold it to Walker using the Blue Book calculations.

He came here earlier in the day so has an abundance of exercise.

We are home.

Need to catch up

 We leave for Florida next week.

Last night we entertained Bess and then she stayed for dinner 

Bess and I made origami paper flowers. I got the kit at Barnes and Noble. She and Tucker liked the organ I when we made  birds. I knew she would be okey with this. She made three I made one. We also looked at Utube which has everything you need to know about anything and everything. This morning I woke up and started to u ravel more of my Irish orange yarn. I began a hat with the needles I got at Barnes and Noble. 

We had a torrential storm o Tuesday. Walker brought the kids here for awhile. He went looking for a new car. Rick is also thinking about a new car we drove tto Car Max and he investigated a car just like the one he is driving but with fewer miles. He might have found one but this is wait and see as is Walker’s. Yesterday I went to the University Community bank and also had my toenails done at LA via in Crozet. 

Walker brought Tucker to tennis and basketball and then they came here for awhile. Bess was making funny faces on this iPad but they made me nervous. 

Today wI have a meeting with Nadia at 3pm
