How many 83 year olds can say they spent their birthday walking across Florida!! Mary Kay did. She even was the driver du jour today and started out at the sign in the first photo. Then she shuttled the rest of us while we walked, had a little pool time in the afternoon and sat for the video, which we hope gets posted, and then we took her out for a fun Mexican dinner at a local restaurant where she had a huge margarita, made friends with a local dude, and a little girl and got a birthday dessert and song from the waitresses.
Wow, Mary Kay! You are one spunky granny! Who walks 26 miles in one day, let alone an 83 year old?
ReplyDeleteAll best wishes from Bill and me and continued success with your incredible goal of walking across the country. I think about you all every time I take my 4 mile morning walk!!!!
Sending hugs to all of you. xoxox Carolyn
Hi Having trouble commenting from my phone, but computer seems to not require Google PW all the time. Anyhow the birthday celebration looked wonderful; that was one whop'n margarita. Did you drink it all or share it? I've been following you on the map each day.
