We and Gary, our friend of 40 plus years, traveled down to the banks of the Bradenton River today to visit with Art & Lynn, our friends of thirty plus years. While Lynn was busy with a previous commitment, we and Art went to lunch at Linger Lodge, an unusual restaurant that offers a healthy taste of Old Florida. As we were walking in we heard a greeting behind us and turned to see JP and Midge, our friends for ten plus years! We six enjoyed a delicious lunch then the four of us returned to Art and Lynn’s lovely home situated on land that’s been in the family nearly a hundred years. It’s a place that reminds us of an earlier era in Florida history. Lynn was there by then and we all enjoyed a visit that lasted for many pleasant hours. Thanks, friends, for opening your home to us.
It was wonderful seeing and visiting with you all. Please come again and stay along the banks of the Manatee River. You can stay in the guest bedroom or camp in your travel abode. Hope you are enjoying your beach stay….warm weather finally.
