Don't party TOO hardy ... you probably still aren't fully recovered ...

It was a wonderful day here in Flaggler Beach, FL - I actually had to turn on the AC in the van.

Gary

I'm in Stuart. FL, 72 degrees, turned on the AC, Eddie Shoemaker and I will be meeting up for dinner in a few minutes. Love the sight of those Palm trees, boganvilia flowers, Spanish moss, OH YEAH!

Eat your heart out Donny,

Gary

hahahah.....Gary enjoy glad to see your feeling better buddy...say hello to Eddie....even though I'm not a big fan of Florida heat I still wish I was there with you guys enjoy!!! take Pics & Videos.

Hey Donny,

I just realized that you would have enjoyed my "stranded in snow country" experience. But -30 windchill would have seen you just as I was, in front of the fireplace hooked up to the recorder while singing and playing the keyboard.
Gary,

Glad to hear you're there. Take care my friend.

God Bless,
Don

Gonna go outside and shoot some photos. Forecast is for 74 degrees here today, a bit chilly for this part of the world.

Gary

This beats the Hell out of snow, freezing rain and bone chilling temperatures.









Tomorrow, I'm headed west to Punta Gorda for a day's visit with some cruising friends, then south to Marathon the following day. OH YEAH!

Gary

Gary Enjoy,...looks like your fully recovered and ready for some Green Coconut Margaritas & partying!! Enjoy...
when is your first Gig at the marina?


PS.. don't forget the marina gig videos!! just sayin'..

With luck, I'll be performing there Saturday night, Donny. I'll get Carol to shoot some vids and still photos.

Gary

Got to watch Eddie Shoemaker perform tonight at the Stuart Elks, he did an excellent job, good turnout, and he used a single Bose L1 Compact, plus a small monitor. The L1 Compact carried the large room with outstanding results, falloff was so minimal that it was almost imperceptible. Eddie is a great entertainer, does an excellent job of reading the crowd, and everyone there loved his music.

I wish to sincerely thank Ed and Carol for their generous hospitality and hopefully we will see them again next October when I, health permitting, sail back to the Keys.

Bright and early tomorrow (sometime after 10 a.m.) Carol and I will be headed across the state to Punta Gorda to meet with some cruising friends I met two years ago when I sailed my boat to the keys. These folks live aboard a 37-foot Morgan sailboat and sailed to the Florida Keys all the way from Detroit. It took them nearly 3 months to make the trip.

More photos to come, soon.
