The weather here in Vero Beach is absolutely perfect for this middle aged woman—a little on the cool side for the Captain. It is very comfortable in shorts and a T-shirt for most of us but there are those with long sleeves and light jackets. It is breezy but we are in dock so that makes no difference but we went to the beach and decided we would not want to have the sand blowing in the breeze so we merely observed from up wind. We used the free bus to go to Ocean Blvd and the bus let us out at Waldo’s Driftwood Resort which is a hotel/restaurant/art gallery founded in the 1930’s by Waldo Sexton. It was a fun place to start and offered $5 margaritas (which we partook of after lunch—great!) We walked down Ocean and found the nice restaurants Brennon told us about Ocean Grill and Citrus-- hope to get back to one of these for dinner—they had an elegant lunch crowd. Oh my, is the exclusive (read high price and elegant) shopping fun. Since we moved out of our home, I have been able to resist buying any nice clothes or home goods but they sure were fun to look at. We found a little outdoor place called Casey’s that emanated wonderful aromas -- you got in a line and ordered a sandwich and found a table. Great sandwiches were had and we shared a table with a delightful couple who had just moved to Vero Beach from Miami the day before. We complimented them on their change of venue. Back on the bus and home for a nap and blog—got to watch out for those midday $5 margaritas!

A Mclaren--I had not hear of it, Fitz was impressed with it
