The best thing about seeing old friends is the way it seems you’ve never been apart. We just continue the conversation from where we left it last time, and it’s as if there was only a few minutes break, not the months it really was.
We have really enjoyed Tom and Lois’s visit. The bathroom was functional, if not completely done. (I’ve decided to wait a day or two before calling Steve back to finish. Kind of nice not to have anyone working for a change.)
It was too cold for any outdoor activities, not to mention rainy. So we toured the Ringling, including lunch in their very nice restaurant. Off to the dog track; naps for an hour; then off again…to Anna Maria Oyster Bar for dinner.
Here’s a photo of Lois and me….friendship founded in 1942 and still going strong:
