our second weekend in punta gorda

sure enough, awoke friday am to sunshine, but very windy, so it felt cool. we got ready for our outing with jenna, but she arrived at 8am with apologies that she needed to reschedule. she had too many errands to attend to today. we chatted for a few minutes and then parted ways with plans to meet at her place on sunday afternoon. we had breakfast at grace's and then walked over to the farmers market hoping to find some good fish. nothing struck a cord with us and rick's belly was giving him trouble, so we headed home. spent the rest of the day reading, napping, internet and chatting with roberto and larry. possible business opportunities abound! spaghetti for dinner and more of the above all evening. pretty quiet day, except for the non-stop wind! tomorrow is supposed to be cloudy with a chance of rain. we'll see!

saturday morning started in the usual fashion with roosters crowing and dogs barking. instead of clouds, there was bright sunshine and the wind had calmed. after breakfast of ham, pepper, onion and cheese omelets, we headed back to the farmers market to see if any of the fish peaked our interest. we bought some jack tuna and then revisited our butcher friend for some stew beef. ran into jenna on our way home and she introduced us to a couple who moved here from florida a couple of years ago. they shared some stories and we visited for a few minutes before returning home to refrigerate our purchases. perfect time for a swim...water is cooler today after yesterday's wind. still feels good. the clouds are starting to move in...it may rain today after all!
