~Sunday~ The service at breakfast this morning was most annoying. Shall I enumerate how so? I think I will. It was way too long after I joined Joe before someone came to ask what I wanted. One of the waiters has the incredibly annoying habit of looking only at what’s on the table and never … Read more
~Saturday~ For breakfast this morning I had a wheat bagel with cream cheese, and I topped it with grape jam. After I’d finished, one of the guys who works there walked by our table and he leaned over and said to me, “I really like the way you put the cream cheese on your bagel.” … Read more
~Friday~ We had breakfast at the Island House poolside restaurant, as will probably be the case for the next three days as well. Today, I had their three-cheese omelet with some wheat toast. And coffee, of course. I worked a little on my pictures and my blog this afternoon, and I sat in the bar … Read more
~Thursday~ Joe and I had breakfast at the poolside restaurant and bar. Joe had granola cereal and orange juice and I had a bagel with a side order of sausage. I thought I ordered patties, but when links arrived, I ate them like the trooper I am. Of course, we both had coffee. Yesterday was … Read more
~Wednesday~ I worked at home today from 6AM until 3PM. I took an hour lunch break, during which I rode out to my financial advisor’s to sign beneficiaries for a couple of my investment accounts. If my plane goes down traveling to or from Key West, I know three people who will be glad I … Read more
~Monday~ We were up at 9:00, and down to see our girl Shirl by about 10:00. Once again, she followed behind us cleaning and straightening up. At one point, I went back for something, and she was bent over near me—with her buttocks too close to my face for my comfort—as I reached for a … Read more
~Sunday~ Robert opened the curtains to our balcony at a little after 6:30, and we were greeted by some birds and Mr. Sunrise over the ocean. We went back to sleep, and got up in time to have a cup of coffee in the room before heading down to the hospitality room for a complimentary … Read more
~Saturday~ Robert arrived precisely at 9:00, and we got on the road to Nags Head, taking 64E across the state. It was quite a pleasant ride, and we arrived in almost exactly three hours. Not bad at all. We stopped at the Nags Head Inn to check in: where we encountered Miss Puss, who stoically … Read more
~Saturday~ Lisa and I were up at about 9:00, and I ran over to a nearby Dunkin’ Donuts, where I picked up breakfast for us courtesy of Lisa. I had to order my coffee and receive it from one person, order our bagels from another person to whom I paid for everything, while yet another … Read more
~Friday~ I got up at about 8:30 today, and sauntered over to the hotel lobby for the complimentary breakfast, which was adequate but nothing great. They didn’t have bagels, which would have been my number one choice, but I had a hard-boiled egg, two slices of toast, a small cheese danish, some apple juice and … Read more
