Getting back up to speed

we are getting busy again. Tuesday was potluck supper and meeting at our local "Hermits Cove" community center.

Wednesday was Music nite at Lou's Ponderosa, featuring Peter Leahy from Raleigh, NC. and several of our local talents.

Thursday was the magnificant Air Force Reserve Band at Flagler.

Friday was an open mike at the Hammock in Palatka. This was an excellent program featuring several of the more noted singers of the Palatka area, which we are including in our growing circle of musicians in the area.

Saturday included a trip to Deland, flea markets, yard sales, and a visit to Daytona speedway, to pick up tickets for the Budweiser Shootout, Feb 7.

Sunday, we went to Normas' house to meet Greg and Mel, who were on their way to a seminar in Orlando. Also there was Gregs' Mother and Father, Bill and Loretta, originally from Falconer, now living in Raleigh, NC. Janice and Don, along with Annette, and 3 of her kids, Hannah, Jenna and Blair. Jane was also present. We all wound up at Alfies in Ormond Beach. This was a somewhat historical event in that 5 of the 6 Mohr Children were together at the same time in Florida.

Monday, it was back to the Dr, to look at the knee. Basically, it looks good, but the Dr did not like some of the redness, so back on the anti-biotics for another week. We do not like this anti biotic, because of the drowsiness it causes. The Dr did allow us to go to one crutch and put more weight on the knee. Next visit with the Dr is Friday in St Augustine. We all, (Lester and Sue), Laura and I went to Supper at Bob and Laverns. Bob is 92(?) and amazing. Other than his eye problems, Bob is in good shape. Today was sort of a historical day in that we went for a boat ride and counted 29 alligators. due to the cold weather, and the surgery, and the visit with Derek and Liza, charlotte, Grcie and Eli in Tampa, our last boat ride was Jan 4th.

Today, Tuesday, our visiting neighbors, Gary and Loretta Anderson, from WNY, pulled out and went to stay at Lou's for a while. Another boat ride, with 30 or so alligators.

Tomorrow, we are off to the Deland flea market, and Lou's at night.

Thursday, we have new guests scheduled to arrive, depending on the winterstorm currently affecting the North. This would be Jerry and Shirley Burkley from Orchard Park, NY. They are members of the Niagara Frontier Fiddle Club and staunch bluegrass music fans.

We took pictures of me with my crutches, and will try to include those in the next posting.
