| Docked at the Dolphin Bar Restaurant in Jensen Beach, a very civilized lunch stop in Jensen Beach, FL |
| We have decided to head for the Keys this winter rather than to the Bahamas. Nancy wanted to be a bit closer to her mom who is recovering from heart surgery. We also wanted to meet up with my daughter who will be in North Miami Beach for a Yoga conference next week. Plus, it's a chance to check out the Miami Boat Show. |

| Naturally, many photos were taken during the three-day visit of daughter Charlotte and her two adorable daughters. So many, in fact, that I had to create another page for them. If you'd like to see more family pics, click here. |
