We left Super 8 & the cats outside waiting to say goodbye. Drove to New Smyrna Beach to visit our friend LINDA. We knew her in Austin before she moved to Dallas & now New Smyrna Beach where her 3 sisters also live. She has always wanted to live by the beach & now it’s become a reality. We all have a tennis background but told her we were now PICKLEBALL PLAYERS. Reluctantly she agreed to try. She wanted to keep playing & we couldn’t believe how quickly she caught on. I need to practice to get ready for The Villages. Today (Wednesday) we went for breakfast & took a 2 hr walk on the beach. Linda also wanted to go for a bike ride but I’ve had enough sun-will go tomorrow. Waiting for it to get cooler so we can play pickleball again. It’s so nice to be here.
