Things Lately

Saturday morning Carol and I were giving out invitations to the Memorial when we came across a man playing soccer, sort of, on the street with a few boys. I approached him and jokingly asked, "Who's winning?" He called to one of the boys, "Hey, Winnie, come over here. This man wants to talk to you!" A 12-year-old rushed up to me and said, "Yeah?"

His face - a perfect picture of puzzlement.

 I reiterated with extra enunciation. "No, no, I wasn't asking to speak to somebody. I was just asking 'Who's winning?'" We enjoyed a laugh together and I left an invitation.

After an hour distributing invitations Carol and I went to see the man who had expressed in having a Bible study. We had a very good 20-minute conversation but not a sit down study. It was not a convenient Saturday for that.

He was holding a yard sale and his lawn

was filled with furniture and other things.

I did make it abundantly clear on the first visit that the home Bible study is free but he obviously had other reasons for a yard sale.

Today's highlight was Flanigan's, where we had decided to go someday. Today was it.

This is an Irish restaurant specializing in beef and seafood.

It exceeded expectations as the photos below indicate. If you come to south Florida, do go for a meal at this excellent eaterie.

 

The appetizer of loose onion rings were a delight. 

And the main course was perfection itself.
