Hi – see there are a bunch of them by us. And Orlando isn’t that far away. It has really cooled off the past couple of days. I don’t think it’s going to last but it sure feels good. We went to this city-run movie theater in Tampa that looks like an old Spanish villa inside with flashing stars on the ceiling and and organist before the show!
Love, Kathy

It would be wonderful to meet here in Florida, but we are leaving the end of February. We rented for 2 months Jan-Feb. Just in case, you might come earlier.
Much love, Edith

Got to see these three fellows almost everyday. Went on lots of rides and enjoyed the sunny 80 degree weather. Hope all is well in Moscow!

I made it to Venice, Fla, it was not easy! We are 100 feet from the ocean. I walk a lot! It is cool, but beautiful. Hope I’ll feel better by March. Hello to Bill.
