My Christmas gifts included the traditional annual tiller pilot, which after taking down to GANNET and plugging in to be certain it works, I immediately registered to extend the warranty from two years to three. I wonder why.
In late morning Carol drove us to the ocean side of the island for a walk on the beach. With a temperature of 68ºF/20ºC, a good many others had the same idea including the man and admirable dog in the photo above. We watched them for quite a while as the man threw a green ball far into the ocean. The dog waited until given permission to pursue it, which he then did with great enthusiasm, going out through the first line of surf into water of for him swimming depth. The water is now a cool 57º/14ºF. He didn’t seem to mind and returned the ball, sat down and waited for the next throw.
Returning to Skull Creek we ate in mid-afternoon on the screened porch a Christmas dinner of Thanksgiving dinner leftovers that Carol had frozen accompanied by a bottle of Cava. The food was as enjoyable as it had been in November.
I watched parts of error prone football games.
At another beautiful sunset we ate small pieces of pecan pie.
In the evening we enjoyed on Amazon Prime the movie, BEING THE RICARDOS, a better film than expected. Here is a valid review.
A lovely quiet and pleasant day as befits an octogenarian and a much younger woman.
