Sunny Sunday

Woke up to a nice sunny day.  What a difference a day makes in the way a snowbird feels. 
  Went out to the large flea market on Apache Trail.  There is a guy I needed to see there about a 3 wood that matches Gerry's driver.  Managed to strike a bargain on it and with my keen negotiating powers, he threw in a sand wedge.  Gerry never had one of those either, a fact that only became evident last week when he was "on the beach" a half dozen times.  He never usually hits the traps, but sure made up for it last week.
  After we went to the big market in Mesa, where Marg looked for things.  Not certain what things, but she appears to have found most of them.  I got a piece for the golf cart that I told Pat at the lake that I would bring him.  It wasn't as busy as I would have thought.  With poor weather on Friday/Saturday, I thought every snowbird in the area would be looking for an outdoor day and the market would sure fit the bill.
  Went for lunch to Long John Silvers again.  We really enjoyed the cod last time, so went back for another feed of it.  Marg also had shrimp and hush puppies with hers.  The hush puppies are a deep fried ball of something like a corn fritter.  They are pretty good anyway.
  On the way back we stopped at the water outlet and filled up 3 gallon bottles with drinking water so that we have a bit of back up.  Marg figures she gets about 3 pots of coffee per gallon.  When we got back I trimmed up a big piece of sun screen material Jerry B gave me.  It hangs from the awning and creates a sun free porch effect.  Some of our company have a problem with too much sun, so it will be nice to be able to put it up when we have them over.  There are a few folks who have serious skin problems with too much sun.  Anyway the screen was much too large, but had a couple of holes in it, so when trimmed up, it was just the right size.  I also have a back up piece that must be 30 or 40 feet long.
  Went for cocktails to Larry & Nancy's place.  Had another scotch, marking my official falling off the wagon day.  Solved a few of the worlds problems, but still working on world peace.  Supper was bbq tonight.
