April showers bring

May flowers.

Not really.  

We have May flowers but April is the driest month of the year.

But we have flowers.

I was out snapping photos of the flowers and then sitting at my laptop editing them and Terry goes “What are you doing?” and I said getting a post ready to upload and he said “It’s about time!  You’re website is BORING!  It’s not like we don’t do anything! Why aren’t you posting about all that? We just went to a wedding renewal! Why aren’t those pictures up yet????”

Wow!  Can you believe how negative he is???? Actually, I might have taken liberties on his talking parts, but, he’s right, I haven’t been posting enough.  I used to post EVERY DAY!  Sheesh.  I gotta get my act together. (And just want to say, I’ll have those wedding photos up, it just takes a bit longer to edit photos with people in them!)

But I digress, back to today’s post….

And Terry just said, “I never said that your website is boring!  You just need to post more!”

Gotta quit going to so many meetings!

You know how I’m always going on about those damn squirrels?

Well, on this website, we have a banjo-playing damn squirrel!

Perfect.  

If you don’t want to actually go to the website, squirrelie was trying out many instruments and gave up the banjo almost immediately.  Only shows that squirrels do not always make good decisions.

Damn Squirrel.

Last night, Terry and I met a friend at the NEW Papa Joe’s in Brooksville.  You may remember it burnt down a couple years ago and a new beautiful and modern restaurant rose from the ashes.

I didn’t take any photos on this visit.

Papa Joe's
This is a photo of the bar that I took last year when I had lunch there. Looks the same.

Dinner was WONDERFUL!  I had eggplant parmigiana.  Took most of it home with me.  So Good.  If you ever get a chance to eat there–take it! GO!  It’s outside of Brooksville, almost to I-75.  Take 50 and turn on Fl-41.  Right there. Yum!

So what’s going on?

Can you believe that Sunday is MAY?????

The Homosassa Civic Club is having their monthly meeting on Monday.  Potluck starts at 6 pm.  We are doing a Cinco de Mayo theme.  Wear your sombrero!  Also honoring five of our local students with scholarships.

Put on your calendar for June 6th, Senator Charlie Dean will be at the Civic Club for a “meet and greet” at 5 pm. Rumours have it that our new Senator Simpson will also be there.

What else?

The weather’s great!  Get out there and enjoy it!

Have a great weekend!
