Thursday March 17th in Melbourne Beach

Happy St. Patrick's Day from Melbourne Beach.  The celebrations in this area start today and continue for three (3) days, with a parade in downtown Melbourne on Saturday with street closures, live bands, kiosks and lots ov fun revellers.  Ron and I plan on taking in the festivities on Saturday and enjoy the sights and sounds and of course BEER.

The girls were off to exercise class.  Upon their return and cleaning up they were off to a luncheon with some of the local ladies in the MB area.  I am sure there was lots to talk about and they no doubt enjoyed themselves.

Ron, New Jersey, Big John, who I referred to as "Connecticut Big John" were off to the Baytree National GC for a 120 PM T-time.  The golf course is a Gary Player disgn with lots of water and encircled in a nice neighbourhood.  The Blue tees play 6,081 yards with a slope rating of 123 with the Black, back tees playing 7,043 yards and sloped at 135. The day was a great golf weather day and we had an enjoyable round of golf.  Attached are a few pics from our golfing with some local crittiers. G
