Sunburn, Sunshine, and Stunning Flowers

Our day at the beach on Saturday resulted in a pretty good sunburn for both Rick and me by Sunday morning.  Bonnie, who had no base tan to start with, was fine because she was smart enough to slather herself in sunscreen.

Sunday morning was a day to catch up in the morning on laundry and to relax a little. Rick sealed the porch grout to keep it weather tight, and then he took some time to actually wash the car and the truck,  Because of a water restriction, people on our side of the street are only supposed to wash cars on either Wednesday or Sunday.  

In the afternoon, we took a drive to the Botanical Gardens.  The great thing about the gardens is that each week a person can visit the gardens and find new plants and flowers in bloom.  The weather had turned very warm, so finding shade was a welcome relief after our sunny Saturday.

The roses were just coming into bloom.

Florida has some beautiful, unusual flowers.

Flowers come in all sizes and shapes!

Bonnie treated us to a dinner at Rick's favorite restaurant in Dunedin: Al Fresco's.  After dinner,  we walked two blocks down to the Marina again to stroll along the shoreline.  The day was fun and relaxing; Bonnie's visit gave us a chance to revisit one of our favorite places in Pinellas County.

Since I want to add lots of pictures to the next blog, I will end this one here so this blog downloads in a reasonable time.
