I arrived yesterday on Spirit Air from Ft. Lauderdale. The plane was half full so I have a bank of seats to myself. BELIEVE me, that doesn't happen very often anymore. Non-stop from FLL is a breeze. It use to be a hardship to get here. Not any more. My friend picked me up at the airport and after dinner I slept like a rock listening to the waves crash. This morning I am going to pick up a car and start driving around. I always remember that the views here were spectaular. I would come around the corner and see the waves crashing and the beautiful blue water. It hasn't changed. I walked up to the synagogue for a visit and saw my old apartment at Smith's Fancy. Someone was coming out and told me that the daughter of my landlady now owns it. There are three big cruise ships in today so I am anxious to get out of "Dodge" and try to find my way back to Margaret's house. She lives near Hull Bay. More later.
