A day at the beach



What is the saying about a day at the ________________ is better than a week _____________??
Monday was a day spent mostly enjoying the sun, enjoying the beach and just being lazy.  I was so surprised to see so many people at the beach on Monday afternoon.  I think it is that time of the year here when people up north say "I need some warmth and sun"  and they head to Naples and area.  Terry and I do not go out to eat much but as one drives around it is amazing at the number of eating places and most have lines at the door, not for me.  There is a place near the beach where I have never failed to see cars parked in the ditch and people lined up to eat. 
It has been good to get on the bike more again.  It was 21 miles on Friday, 30 miles on Sunday and then 15+ miles yesterday.  My bike is amazing and each time I ride it I like it more.  I have found that I can put my sandals on and ride a mile to Walgreen and it works fine without my clip on shoes. 
Yesterday Terry and I played in a 24 person tennis mixer for an hour and a half.  I re-injured my calf after the first hour so will see how long it takes to heal.  Not happy about that but what can one do.  It was the first time I had played tennis other than the clinics I have taken and the times Terry and I have played-just the two of us.  I found that the competition was fun, challenging and really I have some of the "I like to win" attitude in me yet.  Really it was mostly a time of fun and for me it was good.
