Warm Greetings from Florida!

With an 8 AM flight out of San Diego, wake up time came early and the drive to the airport was uneventful. So far, so good!


I was in heaven. Four hours of uninterrupted reading and unlimited drink service... what a way to start a vacation! And my book of choice, The Greater Journey by David McCullough is a real page-turner. Thank you, Kim for the perfect literary recommendation for this journey.
We are calling the village of Lauderdale-By-The-Sea, incorporated in 1949, home for the next two nights. When we arrived, we were greeted with warm sea breezes and idyllic strolling about opportunities.


I was drawn to these breeze blocks. By the way the meaning of FRENCH LEAVE is an informal, hasty, or secret departure. I love that.
Iconic Florida singer Jimmy Buffett named one of his albums “A1A” in honor of the coastal highway that winds along the Atlantic Coast. In March, lawmakers approved legislation (HB 91) to rename all 340 miles of State Road A1A as Jimmy Buffett Highway. I only wish they had gotten the signs up for us to capture the new name. What fun.
After our day of travel, home in our little condo by the sea is just perfect for Steve and me. Tomorrow, we hit the beach!
