A fun day

And we saw:
As we headed out for our 6 hour tour here is Terry and John the captain

John's guests from Canada

Our destination for lunch, a well known watering hole in Fort Myers

We saw big boats

and little boats

and OLD fishing boats

and customized boats

some were even bigger than John's boat that we water skied behind

a few were not doing too well

and of course we saw some BIG homes, perhaps they cost a few $$$'s
We spent most of the day on the water yesterday.  We have had cool weather as our pool heater had not shut off during the day all week BUT yesterday was perfect.  We arrived home about 4:30 and the pool was on but the heater had shut down so that meant GOOD.   Sunny, with a slight breeze and temps in the 70s.  Our neighbor John, rented a boat and we were off.  We had lunch at Doc Ford's in Fort Myers, which is kind of a famous watering hole with great food.  I am always amazed at the homes, the boats and just everything as one travels along in the back waters near the gulf.  This morning my face and legs have a warm touch as maybe I got a bit too much sun but I THINK I will not peel as I seldom do.    Anyway it was a fun fun day.  We came home to a non-dinner evening as we were still full from noon.

The time for my Dr. visit inches closer each day.  Seventeen and counting.  Next week PT could only squeeze me in once so I may not be so sore.  I felt kind of a tiny lump on my incision last night so I picked and picked at it.  As I got out of my soaking tub there was blood on the towel and all over my hands.  I thought maybe I had opened up a geyser!  It may have been a stitch that was still in the leg but who cares, I am fine now.

I continue to wander over to the courts and watch a bit but that gets old after so long.  Perhaps I should concentrate on getting in shape but I have almost come to the conclusion that my shape is what it is so be happy.  Not sure I can actually get happy with it so I have a BIG decision to make--be happy with NOW or change.  Either way it looks to be an uphill battle for me.

I have been thinking of the term "unconditional love" lately and have decided that most of us, perhaps me included, do not practice that and maybe even do not understand it.  I have to think about it more.

My FP, which I served to myself in my "birch tree Liam" cup, is empty so time to move into phase two of the day.
