The Big Double 7

Yes, Jim hit the big double 7 yesterday!!! Yep, 77 years old and still going strong. The body is getting a little tired and sore at times but the mind is still 18 years old .... most of the time anyway! As an example, Jim has 4 SCUBA dives scheduled in Key Largo later this month. How many 77 year old guys do you know that still SCUBA dive??
We celebrated Jim's birthday by going to dinner at Portafino's Restaurant with Gus and Mayilyn Lopes. They were nice enough to give a bottle of Champagne as a birthday gift.
But this is not the end of birthday celebrations. On Sunday, the four of us will be going to Flemings, a fine place for dinner in Sarasota. We will be celebrating both Jim's birthday(again)  and Carol's birthday (August 10). Flemings is a superb place to dine and we always enjoy our times there. Their special on Sunday is Prime Rib and Gus really likes that.
