Family Fun





My cousin Elizabeth and her daughter Hana have been here for a visit the past week. It’s been wonderful to spend time with them and to visit. She and I took the girls to Longboat Key for two nights last week and had a great time relaxing by a pool and playing in the sand.










The beach was beautiful and for the most part, the weather was great, albeit hot. Florida thunderstorms gathered in the afternoons, and the lightning was spectacular at times.


Meals were fun at the hotel, as the local birds have found that if they stand close enough to diners they can grab scraps if they fall. Signs were posted all around not to feed the birds, and after just a few minutes, one could easily see why.
