Fort Lauderdale (TWO Weeks!)
Fort Lauderdale, Florida


         This weeks of  May 6 and May 13 found me in Ft Lauderdale once again.  I've grown to really enjoy this area, made all the more better by my friend Ariel being there the first week.,  We had a good time seeing each other, he even bought dinner one night at one of my favorite restaurants, The Pirate Republic.  That's not a cheap place to dine at, but since he was the 'Senior Motorolan', paying for dinner fell to him.  It didn't matter really, the money came from this project, so I could paid too, but that's how things go with us.

         The classes I delivered were both Networking classes, it was good to once again get my hands on the equipment as well as deliver the classes.  It had been far too long for this, so I thought it was good, the class results proved my belief.  I was able to relax at night both weeks, and spent the weekend in Clearwater with my ex-Father-In-Law.  You might wonder why I would spend time with an ex-In Law, so I'll tell you.  He's much more to me than just an ex-in law.  We were shipmates on my first submarine, and were close friends while on the boat.,  Of course being married to his daughter meant we stayed in touch throughout the years.  It was a good weekend, other than me having a pretty rough Allergy attack Saturday.  But getting Flonase in my sinus', and eye drops in my eyes quickly cleared things up.  Still, I spent far too much time Saturday napping, he didn't seem to mind.  One of the big reasons for spending time with him is that he lives alone now.  He lost his wife to Alzheimers  almost 2 years ago, so is alone now.  His youngest daughter live about 3 hours away, so he gets few visitors.  He will turn 89 this year, so visiting him was almost a must.  It was a good visit, just tiring for us both.

         Since I will be ending my time in San Francisco today, and will write a blog entry for this week later this weekend, along with editing this one to add restaurants I dined at later.  I need to sit back and relax some, but wanted to post this at least.
