It is a beautiful morning with the sun again shining brightly with no clouds in sight. There is a breeze but not too strong and although the temp is slightly lower than it has been, I will take it.

There have been a few boats cruising by this morning taking a look at the marina on their own little sightseeing cruise. The last 2 were open catamarans so I assume they are from just down the inlet. The water is calmer today bringing the small boaters in to sightsee and the fishermen on the big boats out to sea to fish. It is interesting to watch who comes and goes and who stays on their boat overnight and who will be washing their boat and who just stands and looks at it.

Today will be a pool day after I finish the laundry that I have put off far too long. I also hope to take some pictures later today as I have hardly had my camera out at all. The light here is great for taking photos so I guess I had better get at it. One day just runs into another here and before you know it a week will have gone by.

The super bowl is fast approaching (Feb.3rd) and with it comes the parties and celebrations. Americans are football crazy here and the Super bowl is a big event. There will be a party at the club house with a potluck supper and they have brought in a 60 inch TV and huge speakers.  It is better to say nothing when they talk football than say you don’t even know the teams, otherwise you get the whole lowdown on the season.  Yup, best to smile and nod!

The pool beckons so I best go and get a few things done around here. Norma and Russ arrive on Saturday and we look forward to a fun filled visit. I see deep sea fishing on the agenda again this year so bring it on, and the Gravol. Lol. Weigh  hey and up she rises…..

Cheers!
