TUESDAY DECEMBER 1

The day started off cloudy and storms and wind are forecast. This photo is from the historic cemetery in town. It's very scenic with live oak trees stretching out every which way and spanish moss draped on the branches. I wanted to look around, but I'd already seen one snake on the sidewalk and just didn't want to press my luck.






Ray and Patsy Whitney of the PatsyRay called Tom and Diann of Noah Agenda and said they were driving from Port St. Joe to Apalachicola to have lunch. We rode our bikes back over to Papa Joe's and met up with Ray and Patsy and two other couples. Both of which come from Minnesota. Jeff and Lynda Hammer from Princeton and Liz and Steve Kemper from Newport. Tom and Diann had spent time with the Kempers earlier on the trip so it was a reunion for them. I had a salad with fried oysters on the top. Very yummy. Lightly breaded and fresh oysters, so you could really taste them. Ross had a crab cake basket and he said it was also very good. After lunch Diann and I hopped on our bikes and headed into Apalachicola to look around the shops. We didn't stimulate the economy much, but we had fun and laughed alot! Stopped for a cup of coffee on the way back to the marina. We weren't back very long and it started to rain. And rain. And rain.

Just kind of hunkered down for the evening and listened to the rain. Watched the prez on t.v. I think I had as much trouble staying awake as most of the West Point cadets. Snore!!! The big excitement of the evening was Ross had a phone call from his niece, Claire. She just turned 5 and lost her first tooth yesterday.
