April 2010

Text Box: This was a slow news month for us. I wish I could say the same for the media!!! I hate turning on the TV any more...too many disasters both natural and man made!
Bob & I are still not tired of our stay here in Myrtle Beach. We have gotten into our routine of dieting and walking and are doing well with that. Paul & Angie have left and headed for PA. They are getting ready for their Alaskan trip. The weather here has really been warming up but the evenings remain cool. I have even ventured into the pool, but Bob ‘chickened out’. We are working on our tan. Pat & Roger have retuned from FL and have begun cooking the Sat breakfasts in the Park. Roger asked if we would help and of course we said yes. We enjoy working with them and are glad to contribute to the Park’s activities.

Since Easter was this month, we celebrated it with Paul & Angie who were still here. We had dinner together and then explored the newly constructed Myrtle Beach Boardwalk. This is a very nice addition to the local area. Afterwards we rode up along the beach, which is always a treat. Then there was my birthday! Oh my….another year passed!!! Well, I really feel quite good which I am thankful for, despite some stiffness in joints. We again went out to dinner with Paul & Angie to celebrate. I sure love my fish dishes…..I just try to stay away from the fried fish.

There are more and more plants blooming! There is that unmistakable fragrance in the air, which I love! I don’t know what half the flowers are, but I enjoy them anyway.

Below is our friend the resident alligator in the lake at Barefoot Landing. We spotted him again during one of our many walks. Then at the top of the next column, I am feeding the seagulls and the two pictures below are of Bob & I in the Park pool.
