A poolside toast in a warming Florida
Here's a report from our Florida snowbirds. Stan's sister-in-law, Becky Lynn, writes: (That's Stan's sister, Becky J. prepping the cork on the champagne, below)
FINALLY, FINALLY, FINALLY.... IT WARMED UP ENUF THURSDAY TO HAVE Hors de oeuvres ON THE LANAI
We haven't been outside since we arrived here January 4. You have probably heard about the frozen oranges. And now this is IT.... (L to Rt) That's Al, his wife Becky J., Virg, Adam Jerdee and wife Kim (due in May) from Des Moines. We are toasting Adam who ran the world famous Disney Marathon- 26 miles. If you haven't heard about it then you've probably never walked a mile in his shoes, but that's okay. It was colder than a witch's toenail, but he made it under 5 minutes and got a Mickey Mouse medal. So that's the way it is.
We fed him carrot sticks and fruit.
(Thanks for the report, Becky. More warm weather is on the way. We'll await further news.)
