Mardi Gras! Today, Saturday, is the day the park goes to the Seawall to walk the parade(s).  Ron and Dora have parked their RV on Seawall Blvd (Dora stayed in it overnight in order to hold a parking place - it gets pretty crowded) and Ron drove the van with a load of us park residents and our lawn chairs.  We set up in front of and beside the RV and ate a delicious lunch prepared for us by the Gustafson family and friends! I stayed for the first parade and then went home around 2:30 to take in the glorious sunshine in a less crowded location!
