Our new outboard engine was diagnosed with a seal leak. While we wait for the dealer to order parts for the repair, we completed some more boat projects. Friday night we attended the fish fry at Sacred Heart with friends Tom & Maureen and David & Patti and later played “Pegs & Jokers” a neat board game. Tom & Maureen leave tomorrow for the Exumas; David & Patti plan to leave early next week. I‘m getting anxious to leave; Joanne has been more than ready for a few weeks now! While we’re waiting, we decided to tour the Ringling Brothers Museum in Sarasota. John Ringling built Cà d’Zan, the last of the Gilded Age mansions in America. Designed in a Venetian Gothic style, it really reminded us of Venice . We took a guided tour; you can read about at http://www.ringling.org/ We also saw the model circus, learned a little circus history and toured the art museum. On the way back from this fun trip, we drove along Siesta Key. The sand is very fine and white – just one of the most beautiful Florida beaches that Joanne has seen.
