Here is Indy, sitting next to me, checking things out at the Tarpon Springs Dog Park. We thought Marcia was going to get her hair cut on Saturday, and I had planned to take her to the Dog Park during the hair cut...but her hair lady canceled out on us for Saturday...wasn't feeling well. So Saturday I mentioned to Marcia my original 'plan' and I used the words "Dog Park" out loud, and Indy lite up like a Christmas Tree! Within seconds she was jumping from chair to chair, running over to me and then back to the chairs. Well, cat is out of the bag, so I took her Saturday.
Above are three of the five dogs that were at the Dog Park on Sunday...yes, I said Sunday. On Saturday there were eight or nine dogs, and she had a BLAST. When we got back Marcia said her hair lady called and she can do her hair on Sunday...so Indy got a double dog park weekend. Talk about one happy dog!
On Monday Marcia had her Bible Study with the ladies at church, and this is when I normally go to the motorhome and charge up the batteries by running the engine for 45-60 minutes. Well, her phone had busted on Thursday. The phone still worked, but with a broken hinge, it was not going to work very long. We decided to order a Kyocera DuraXV LTE E4610 like I have, which came on Saturday. It is a very durable phone, but it requires a sim card, so Monday I went to Verizon while she was at Bible Study and would do the motorhome on Tuesday.
On the left is my phone (taken with Marcia's new phone), which I got in February 2020...on the right is Marcia's new phone (taken with my phone). So that we can tell them apart, I put light blue tape on her phone. The GOOD thing about this change is that now I can help her with questions about how to use certain features of her phone, where her old phone was like CRAZY bad on how to do certain things. Already this phone is much more to her liking, and it only cost $20 more than my phone cost 22 months ago.
On Tuesday as I was traveling to the motorhome I got a picture of the remains of the storm that went through the Tampa Area. Little did I know, that just 100+ miles south of where I was...

...a minor Tornado went through the Fort Meyers area. Now compared to the Tornadoes that went through Arkansas, Kentucky, Missouri and other states on the 10th, this was very minor. One person hurt, a few cars were damaged, a few roofs damaged, a few car ports damaged...it was very minor.
We live in a corner unit, so we only share one interior wall with one neighbor...Mary. Before we left California we knew that Mary had a heart by-pass. She had been in rehab for about 6 weeks, and we knew two of her sons were coming out from New York to get her and take her to New York for home rehab. They flew out Tuesday...not sure if there were any delays or not due to the weather, but I doubt it. We saw her for just a few minutes on Monday as they brought her out of the rehab to select what she needed to take to New York. We HOPE she gets better and is able to come back...only time will tell.
