Cousins!

Got up early to work so we could have a bite of breakfast and make our way to Dade City.

When we got to Dade City, they were preparing for a parade.  Our cousins had to park across the parade route and get permission to cross the street while the parade was going on.

We met cousins Betty, Bill and Matthew Shapiro, and Matthew's girl friend Natalie, for lunch at
Kafe Kokipelli in Dade City.

We had a great lunch, including she-crab soup!  That is the non-Kosher part of the group had that soup... Terry, Natalie and me!

After lunch the six of us wandered into the antique shops and I was the only one who bought anything. I bought a pair of candle holders in blue and white. We also did go into the friendliest quilt shop, who were still friendly even after it was clear that none of us were quilters.

Since Natalie and Matthew had to get to the Tampa Airport for their trip back to New York City, we had to say good-bye. 

We left Dade City and bought some gas, right before getting onto I-75.  But we had to move pumps and the gas was way more expensive than in The Villages, we only bought $10 worth.

Got off of I-75 in Wildwood and went to the Dollar Tree and then topped off the gas tank at the station near the house.

We sat outside to read the newspaper as it was such a nice day.

We had a light dinner, including homemade rolls.  Glad that my cook is still working!

We just fnished watching Antiques Roadshow for two hours and we are going to be heading to bed.
