Our First PJ Party

George and Kay Angelil, Ed's brother and sister-in-law, came from their Port St. Lucie home to visit us yesterday. Ed had chemo on Friday and felt more lethargic than he had after his other treatments, so it was good for us to have a diversion.
We took a chance on an unknown restaurant and went to the Bonefish Grill, which is part of The Shell Factory, and happens to be about 2 miles south of our RV resort. Well, we lucked out.....we all had the all-you-can-eat fish and chips. It was just delicious, without all the heavy breading some restaurants use on fish. George and I chose sweet potato fries, rather than French fries and they were yummy. We went to Beall's Outlet store, where we girls split from the guys. Kay and I looked at everything in the store, visiting all the while. She bought a seersucker pants outfit and I bought a fish sundress. Then we walked over to Beall's Clearance Center and looked at everything in there, too. By that time, we were beat so we called George and Ed to come get us.

They had looked at some 55+ communities. George is in real-estate, and as with most realtors, he likes to get a feel for the market in different areas. Plus, they might be interested in moving over to this less-crowded area one of these years.
Dinner was easy to put together because Ed and I had made Chicken Divan ahead of time. Ed got a bit bent out of shape because the biscuits sort of burned, but who cared, we just cut the burnt bottoms off. Look on the bright side.......that helped cut down on the calories in each biscuit. This was the first time we've had overnight guests in this RV and we learned one thing - anyone who sleeps over needs to have one quality - they MUST be very short if they want to stretch out on the sofa bed!

This morning we visited Old Bridge Village, a resident-owned waterfront community. What a wide range of prices and styles of manufactured homes - some new and some quite old. Kay and George headed home after our tour. I think all of us enjoyed our time together.

p.s. Ed is feeling better, although not quite the ball of fire that he usually is.
