Looking Back

 

Looking back at our calendar this year, we participated in more events than I remembered. Late January, we played PopStroke Golf with the Islanders in Fort Myers. Due to high winds, we drove with the Kapins to lunch at Burnt Store in early April. April 8th, along with Marie, we watched, what may be last performance of the Stations of the Cross at Sacred Heart. The Islanders held a Getting to Know You Party at the Civic Center.

Canal Clean Up

Stan and Pam rode with us on Marty's boat for the Canal Clean Up with pizza after at the Civic Center Pavilion. 

We cruised across the harbor for a raft-up with the Islanders.

 Richard attended a guided tour   of Fisherman's Wharf at Fort Meyers   Beach and hiked the Eagle Point   Trail at the Alligator Creek Preserve,   both with the Islanders. Joanne had   attended these events previously.

We entered the IYC Charity Bocce Ball Tournament with every expectation of losing on the first round. We didn't! We were matched with the unbeatable and legendary Armstrongs for semifinals for which we considered even scoring one point a victory. We won! We lost the final to a very hot younger couple. 

Richard volunteered for the committee boat for Harbor Twenty Races. We attended the SVdP picnic at Ponce Park April 26, a very nice day. 

Constance invited us to a delicious dinner for Joanne's birthday with a fabulous birthday torte.

We hunted plastic eggs filled with lottery tickets, candy, cigars and other assorted items at IYC's "first ever" Easter Egg Hunt. We rode bikes at Webb Lake with Marica, Michele, Stan and Pam. Joanne attended Garden Club events including a tour of Zimbabwean sculptures and a flower luncheon at IYC. Of course, we can't forget Bleu Kitty!  He always entertains us!
