There was a fairly small gathering last night to say good-bye to Linda and Rich.  It was a pot luck and I think Terry's deviled eggs were the hit of the evening.  The party was held in a gathering room that is part of  two of the high rise condos.  

Well I played tennis yesterday for 90 minutes.  Greg and I lost 3-6 and won 3-6.  I did make some nice shots BUT perhaps I made as many terrible shots.  I played as if I hadn't played for 5 months, oh I guess I hadn't!  It was fun.  My next steps onto the court will be tomorrow as I will hit with the pro for another 15 minutes or so.  Then things get rolling next week with play Monday-Thursday.

I did get some things cleaned up in the den yesterday and will finish it today.  It will then look like real people live here and not some slobs.

We did make a trip to the library yesterday.  I came home with four books.  Two of them are the kind where you can read, stop and pick it up again and not miss a beat.  They also have no redeeming value except to entertain the reader.  The other two are history which I like.  One is about the relationship  between President Roosevelt and Churchill.  I think that will be good.

Here we are, our 7th day in Naples.  I THINK, but maybe it is not true, that we are starting to get a bit used to the heat.  After playing 90 minutes of tennis yesterday Terry said there was a tiny spot on my shirt that was not wet.  It sounds a bit corny but getting into the area of physical exercise feels good again, even the sweat.

This is all for today.  It is close to 7:30 and I may wander over to the fitness center to get some work in.  I think I could use a good workout as my FP is gone and I am READY to get up and go!
