1-27-15 Not missing winter.

Just NOT missing winter as I watched the national news this morning. I wonder if our Northeastern neighbors are “skeered” ? When we lived in Northern Michigan we never feared winter. We respected it and sometimes even welcomed it. We lived on an unimproved trail so we had no county plow service. When we got snowed in we just took the covers off the snowmobiles and used them til our plow guy, Chris, dug us out. We had a generator for any power outages so we were always secure. Why the news services make such a big deal out of a blizzard I'll never figure out. Maybe because they are broadcasting from a non-snow region ??
Now that we spend winter in S.E. Florida we're hearing the local weather guessers calling for cold temps. Ha ha ha ha ..at 60 ??
They should be saying less warmer..maybe a week's vacation up North would clarify that for them??
1-28-15 Wednesday
The sun was up today but the wind was still blowing. We've been wearing light coats all day, tomorrow we're supposed to get back to the high 70's & sunny.
How do you spend time in Matlacha?? Heather has been setting up her jewelry crafts table every afternoon at The Olde Fish House. Been meeting a lot of snowbirds. I replaced all the hinges on the rig's engine access covers. A little puttering helping out with our neighbors stuff. Of course cooking for each other on a daily basis. Great Happy Hours every day. I dug out the fishing gear and am planning on starting the fishing routine like last year. We've been studying the local music venue for the next few weeks and it looks like that will be fun! It seems like the hours just fly by every day.

Where'd the week go? Had a great weekend. Down at The Olde Fish House we listened to some fun music last Saturday. Swamp Blues, they called it, it kept the crowd all evening. The guy's name was Ben Prestage and his “ one man band “ show was fantastic ! He played non-stop from 5:30 til 9 with no breaks. His show involved playing guitar, foot drums ( snare & bass drum ) a crash and harmonica and singing. He went from 1 song into another and the crowd was very motivated ! Full house til the end. Great show !!
Our friend, Carl, had a food fest for everyone on Sunday. He turned out Chicago Style shaved beef with au jus. Fantastic !! His cat, Puppy, even had some !! Crazy cat ! Carl always makes Great Food.
I guess I'd better look up my sunglasses and get this day on a roll..later !!
REMEMBER, LIVE YOUR DREAMS AS TIME GOES BY QUICKLY !!
Charlie & Heather
