Fridays with Shirley

This has been a very busy week. Life in retirement in HHI is busy. We bought a new HP laptop. I had the tech from the store transfer all the data. But not everything is there. And getting adjusted to a new computer is interesting. Things are different and I am looking for items. Jack wanted the biggest screen for his aged eyes!



The weather is beautiful. We spent many days on the beach. There seem to be as many dogs as people on the beach. It is a dog party.



I bought an iPhone on Monday afternoon at 2:00. It had to be shipped as they did not have one in stock. We joked that they were packing it up as Jack and I drove home. The iPhone arrived on Tuesday afternoon at 2:00 from Texas. How did they do that so quickly? On Thursday I took it to the Verizon store and had everything transferred. I love the phone. I bought a double backed cover so the grandkids can not break it. Of course they are not allowed to play with it.
Shirley and I discussed a few months ago, that we settle in HHI and do not leave the island and see the world. So we decided to do something special every Friday. Last week we went to stores around HHI. And we went to help a friend sell items at the mother's apartment since she had died. One week was Beaufort , one week Bluffton, palmetto bluff. Today we're visited a friend in a rehab home with cookies and flowers. Then we went to Savannah. There is a new SCAD museum of modern art that just opened. Ate lunch at a quirky place. Then Shirley said she never had ice cream at Leopolds. So off we went to have kiddie cups for $2.94. Then we walked around the city and drove back to the island.


We have a neighbor that has been fishing in our yard every day. Jack is also fishing with him. Here are the catches of one day.
