POOCH OF THE MONTH
In January I had the pleasure of taking a picture of one of our four legged residents with the owner. It looked good so it was featured on this blog.
Last week the community sponsored "Smooch A Pooch" at Town Center. I had the opportunity to use my old Kodak Brownie 123. I got some fine pictures of several dogs living here in "The Walk." I am planning on posting a different picture here each month.
Above are February's "Pooch of the Month", as well as a couple of the event, including a parrot.

DAY CARE IN VERONA WALK
The headline is a little misleading. The "Day Care" facility was our house. It was another day of "baby sitting."
Our little Cali wasn't feeling well so she signed up to spend the day at Casa Valentina where Grandma enjoyed her company. The two played all day.
By time she went home it appeared that she was doing much better. She was using her camera and wagging her tongue non stop. The shy one even let the "Old Guy" take her picture.

FOOTBALL SUNDAY
Every year I wait for "Football Sunday." Even the wife had a little interest. This one promised to be great right from the beginning.
We started early by picking up our grandson. He asked to watch the game with us. That might have something to do with our large screen TV.
Since we had an invite from one of the "VW Gentleman" we took the lad to a great party. He behaved himself which was expected. The bad news was he liked the Patriots, and those of us from Jersey liked the Giants. One of us was happy.
Final score: N.J Giants 21 New England Patriots 17

MY BUDDY AGAIN
A few days ago I got "The Call" to go pick up the kid. More work! Grrrr.
Naturally I did the job with few complaints. But when I advised him of my expenses He did offer to pay me. It was only .25 cents so I let him keep it.
Don't tell him I didn't mind one bit. He is a good kid.

CAFE VERONA HOSTS: THE "VERONA WALK GENTLEMEN"
The "VeronaWalk Gentlemen" a community Lunch Group" made a Huge visit to the new Cafe Verona on Feb. 1, 2012.
This was one of the larger turn outs for a community group that meets the First Wednesday of The Month at different restaurants in Naples/Marco Island. The group, now in its' fourth year, has been enjoying fine food, and building on community based friendships.
It appears that a good time was had by all, and that there may well be a return visit! Thanks to the Gentlemen and to Cafe Verona this was an outstanding event.

THE LADY'S MOM IS EIGHTY - SEVEN
I am posting this before "He" wakes up. He, as always, will say: "I didn't forget." Truth be told "He" missed the last two years.
This Lady's Mom is now 87. The picture is from two years ago. She is still active and independent. That is good, very good !
We wish her a great birthday
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ! ! !
