MILESTONE DAY

The weather has been beautiful since we arrived in Florida with temps in the low 80's every day. We've been walking, reading, sleeping, shopping (lots of malls around here), and just enjoying the life of leisure. Last night we went to a Gospel Music concert - just good old songs like I'll Fly Away, Precious Memories, Shall we Gather at the River, I'll Meet you in the Morning, and many more. It's a Saturday night event and we'll probably ago again next week. Vic and Jeann introduced us to this the first year we came down here and we've enjoyed it every year.

Today has been a good day. We "went to church" via the internet and listened to Byron's sermon from St. John 6 - not as good as being there in person but were able to feel the Holy Spirit in our kitchen and think of all our dear friends in church.

THE BIG MILESTONE - Jerry turned 70 today! Each of the kids "skyped" us this morning and they all had birthday wishes for Jerry - and that was fun. This afternoon we went to a music concert of music from the 50's and 60's at the Largo Cultural Center. I believe we were among the youngest people there, so we've decided maybe we're not so old after all!!

Still can't get my pictures posted. I'll keep trying.

Happy birthday, Jerry. I thought of you today and wondered if it was your birthday. I didn't realize it was the big 70. May God bless you and grant you many more happy, healthy birthdays! ---Carol
