Today was another dreary drizzly day in Atlantic City so I'm posting a sunny picture of a flock of ibis perched on our bulkhead taken in our Cape Coral back yard this past winter.  

Today I went to the gym which will be my last time for yoga and step/abs for a while.  Thanks Kay and Lu, it was great taking your classes and seeing my old friends again.  Gretchen and John brought White House subs for lunch.  Ralph said the Essls have completed The Atlantic City Trifecta for us:  Gilchrist's for breakfast, Angelo's for dinner, and today, White House for lunch.  Thank you!  They were delicious and we enjoyed our visit with you both.  Ralph's dad, Jimmy, came by to take a Say Good-Bye photo of us and April also came to bid us farewell.  We will miss them. :(

We have dental appointments tomorrow morning, then I've got an appointment at the laundromat, and the captain has some last minute "boat stuff" to do.  Weather permitting, we'll cast off early Wednesday morning, May 23d northbound and The Great Loop adventure begins.  It seems like only yesterday we were boat shopping -- that was in 2007. Tempus fugit.
