honeybelles, rookery

After breakfast we went down to Venice and enjoyed the Venice Rookery again. We counted 6 active nests with herons and either eggs or babies. Very nice. Two of the herons were into nest building. It was nice to see them fly to shore and pick up sticks or pull cattails out of the ground for use in their nests. Next we filled our tank for 1.55 then stopped by Lowes for some plumbers putty so I could finish the drain project. In Osprey I stopped in the produce store for some fruit for lunch. They had Honeybelles. We bought 4 as a trial. They were very juicy and yummy. We ate two for lunch (one each). Will go back for more.
After a lunch of cheese and crackers we went back to the produce store and picked up more Honeybelles. I worked on the wedding pictures some more before we got dressed up for the party tonight. Left here at 7 PM. At the clubhouse we had horsedouevres of mushroom, duck, surf and turf, chicken. fruit and cheese along with glasses of Chardonnay. We took our seats for the salad course. Our table mates were Wendy and husband John from St Pete, Jim and Donna from Deer Creek, and a couple from the Stoneybrook villas. We danced, used our noise makers and had champagne at midnight. Left at 12:15 when they announced the last dance.
