 Today we took time to visit the French Quarter for a short time, then back to the hotel.

Ann had events all day into 9 p.m. in the evening. Bob took a short walk, but spent most of the day recovering from the golf outing the day before and catching up on some work.

We did take an hour out to write cards for senior citizens. It was a craft project where you put together a card, sign it, and it is later sent to seniors. That was a nice break. And then we realized that we were seniors and that somewhere, someone may be making cards to send to us!




Bob took a walk later in the evening and decided to stop in a CVS just to have a look. Incredibly, the CVS also sells beer and other alcohol. Why waste a lot of money on prescriptions when you can just have a few beers, see how you feel after that, then decide whether to fill the prescription.
