A pictorial of mementos from our day's journey...

We left this morning around eleven A.M. after I had combed the net to see if anything was going on in the county today, and sure enough there was at Charlotte’s Sport Park.

It’s where the Tampa Bay Rays have their spring training but in the field/parking area during off season we do have our own Sandcrabs team, as well as many other things going on and today was one of those days, their fifth annual Charlotte Harbor Nature Festival, and so we went. The above bracelets were distributed there as well as so many other things. Nice sentiments and that is what we hope to do… although still within our old limitation of a ten mile radius, but we did go on further today!

PS I walked all over the place and only used my seat on my walker/ transporter for short breaks!

 We thought that we would just look in the above place and so we did at this other shelter in our county, as much as we felt for the dogs there that we visited none tugged at our heart strings, sadly as of yet… we will know if it ever happens again as most every one else knows, true? PS this was much further than our usual gallivanting on a Saturday, more like our younger selves…progress.
With the GPS in the new car we put in to find a seafood restaurant nearby, so much had built up since our last visit to Englewood it was almost unfamiliar…aha there was one within two miles heading in the right direction towards home… Beyond the Sea and neither of us had been there before, Hubby as a deputy or me with my journeys as a volunteer. And so Hubby did what he always does when we happen upon a new restaurant he scopes it out and brings out a menu to see if it is affordable and has things we both will eat, why not?

It passed both tests and so we entered, and the hostess, bar maid server was amazingly capable and took our orders and delivered all chosen items in a timely fashion. And their food was delish! Hubby had their seafood crepes and I had their seafood strudel, yum! We did order beverages our usual's, and shared each others entrees agreeing that both were very good…
As you can see they not only are a restaurant but most nights have entertainment. The three advertisements I grabbed were of there upcoming shows… best to call for information and reservations, @ 941-474-1400. At lunch time there is none. The first one is for December 6 “Memories”, next December 10 The Goldtones, New Year’s Eve Andy’s 57 Chevy.
Below is the picture that you have all been waiting for our newest baby, Connie, short for Conestoga Wagon? 
Who magnificently got us home.

On that note allow me to be the very first to wish all of you a very happy good night and ask you all to kindly count all you blessings and share all your overages with you know who and we will too!

And next time please be here or be square, ya hear!
