Spring Break
So sorry about missing last week deadline, but I was in Florida enjoying spring vacation on the 17th floor, overlooking the ocean view, watching the waves as they came in and went out. It was a glorious vacation. I accompanied my niece, Dr. Locord Wilson and her husband Tom on this vacation.
We viewed many sights, went shopping and enjoyed some good food, at some great places such as Red Robbins, Margaritaville, Red Lobster, and Applebee’s.
