A day at the races

John was able to check off an item on his bucket list!   He attended the Daytona 500 with our good friend Vince.  It was a long but fun day.  A cool nascar sand castle greeted them at the race. They got to hear Trace Adkins sing the national anthem, saw the thunderbirds do a flyover, see an action packed race full of lead changes and crashes, amazing fireworks, and see the amazing logistics of managing 100,000 people!  They had great seats and a great time!

Some Florida history

We went out for a nice breakfast at captains galley in fort pierce.   It was there we learned of the annual cracker trail to fort pierce.  They were supposed to pass the restaurant but never showed, so went to the weekly market for our fresh veggies.   Guess who was there?!  The horses from the cracker trail.   There were some real beauties!  https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florida_Cracker_Trail

Seattle

Walking around pike market place!  Saw them throwing fish!   Lots of stairs to climb!  My poor knee!  60's today! Having a Bloody Mary and looking at the snow capped mountains!

Dinner and a show!

Had dinner at giannis tonight with our food friends Kathy and Steve.   They scrape fresh cheese into wheel, pot in olive oil and light it!  Then they add spaghetti.  It is infused with the cheese.   So good!
