Ernie and Noela all ready to head out! |
Goodbye special friends until later this year! |
We decided to go to Denny's for breakfast before church because we were ready and hungry. After eating and having a nice time talking, we went to church for the 9:30 service, visiting with many friends before and after the service. It was a phenomenal message by Pastor Dan talking about how we handle our life struggles (his wife is very debilitated because of MS)! It was a heart wrenching message.
We returned to Wilbur where we changed to go to the beach and I worked on some projects while Ken rested. We left the CG at 2:15 and headed to Manasota Beach. We knew we wouldn't find a parking space if we left any earlier. Fortunately someone was leaving just when we arrived. Ken and I spent most of our time walking the beach and finding a good amount of shark's teeth and pieces of sea glass.
We left at 5:30 and drove to the North Jetty at Nokomis Beach to watch the sunset. Rick and Joyce joined us around 7 and we had a nice time and enjoyed watching the dolphins, boats, and birds. Lots of hugs and sadness when we said our good-byes, knowing we probably won't see each until next November or December. We so appreciate their friendship, encouragement and spiritual guidance.
Looking over to Venice! |
Not much of a "sighting" but amazing that Ken actually got a picture of the dolphin! |
Beautiful sky from the North Jetty! |
Amazing how hard the pelicans dive into the water! |
The pelicans are searching for food! |
Lots of people come to the jetty each evening for the sunset! |
I think these are terns! Talk about blending in with your surroundings! |
Dive bombing pelicans! |
Our great friends, Rick and Joyce! |
I think a sailboat is growing out of my head!!! |
It was a bit cloudy so no actual sunset, but the sky was beautiful! |
A sunset cruise sailboat! |
So beautiful! |
Ken and I were back to the CG by 9 and we went right to bed. Tomorrow we need to finish packing and organizing for our departure on Tuesday morning!
