Idling

We have been in Belleaire since Monday afternoon and have done nothing. Just back from the pool and reading. Yesterday we went to the Yankee's spring training facility but all we saw were NY fans and a couple of fat guys trying to work up a sweat. $3/$4/$5 hotdogs from the same stand so figure the price was based on the amount of team gear one was wearing. Kelly and I were the only ones not wearing something Yankee but I told the security guy I had Yankee underwear and he let us in.
Here is the leader of the Evil Empire immortalized in bronze outside the stadium.

And here is the scoreboard. As I mentioned, there was no one there so the price was right.
And here is a view from Mary Laughlin's deck. It was important that I was 5 stories up when I took off my shirt as even Ahab couldn't throw a harpoon that far. I spent many waking hours here during the past week planning my future. To St Augustine on Saturday
