Today the forecast was for rain in the afternoon, so we played the day by ear.
We started off by meeting Diane and Tom and Diane and Don for lunch at the Glenview Country Club about 11:30 a.m.
After lunch, we decided that the weather man was wrong and went to Mt. Dora and had a lovely afternoon walking around there going in and out of shops. The total purchase of the group was a bar of soap and a sweater - both purchased by the visiting Diane! I think Mt. Dora did not have an economic boom today because of our arrival. Before leaving Mt. Dora, we went to the hotel for a drink and enjoyed looking at the water from the bar - it was a little too windy to sit on the rocking chairs outside.
We then came back into The Villages for pizza at Flipper's in Spanish Springs. It was our first time there. They had opened last year, but we did not get there last year. It was pretty decent food. While we were finishing dinner, the lightening started and the rain started pouring down. The weatherman's timing was off, but it did rain, we'll give him that.
We waited for the rain to slow down and then ran to our cars. We took Diane and Don home and then came home ourselves to read the paper, check email, etc.
Had a nice call from Mindy that she has been invited to speak (teach) at a national conference. She's trying to figure out if her schedule will allow for her to accept the opportunity. We are so proud of her!
