Walking in a New Year on a Warm Day


Walking

The girls are pretty good walkers (especially from shop to shop at Haney Circle in Stuart, but that's another story for tomorrow.) They convinced us to take a walk around La Buona Vita to begin the New Year. Kent with his joints and I with my lungs don't do it quite as well as they do, but we try:

Still, we would rather walk than take to a geezermobile, like this one which passed our sun room this morning. Actually, it's a geezettemobile, piloted by Maxine, we think. As we said yesterday, we are so not ready to be old.

Later on we walked on Jensen Beach with Kent and Joanne, which was a bit more challenging:

This old guy was walking, too, on New Year's Day, keeping up a better pace than Kent and I were, but then, he may be younger though probably not by much:

Old Friends

After a nap and a change, the Dumases left to meet some dear old friends who are Floridians now, and Mary F. and I paid a visit to Bob and Regine Gudheim at Piper's Landing in Palm City. Bob formerly owned The Kontro Company, where both of us were employed many years ago. We were particularly pleased to see and visit with Bob's former spouse, Susan, and her partner, Arthur Schwartz, whom we had not seen in more than fifteen years.

January 2: Happy Birthday, Karen!
