We woke up to mega clouds today. We were going to go to the Orchid House and gardens, but the weather looked iffy. We decided to stay in and ended up playing cards. The boys won again (2 games to 1 - boo hoo). We had a 15 minute shower - just enough to wet the grass. We read for a while and Dave ran the vacuum around to clean up a bit (even though we haven't been overly messy). We went out for dinner to a local diner and then went to the big clubhouse for a show. Sandy and Larry gave us a tour: card rooms, fitness rooms, ceramics, art, library, jewelry making, indoor heated pool with 30 person jacuzzi, 2 outdoor pools and a 1500 person auditorium with stadium seating - the place was huge. The entertainment was a comedian who had been on the Johnny Carson show 25 times and a Dean Martin/Frank Sinatra impersonator/singer. The comedian was better than the impersonator, but the evening was a fun one. I realized that I had forgotten to describe the Bento box that Dave had for lunch yesterday - it was a black lacquered box with compartments for each of the different food items - it really was a work of art!
