Dream cars in Naples





Lauren and I went to a wonderful dinner at AZN in the Mercado. This is the "hot spot" in Naples. The cars in front of the restaurant were really cool - one of the new Gold Wing Mercedes (where the door lifts out and straight up), brand new Rolls Royce and a Lamborghini.
So glad Lauren came - we had a really great time!!

Beach Day in Naples with Lauren




Sunset at Pelican Bay Beach - we took a bottle of wine - and just caught sunset one evening. Another day - we started back to Pelican Bay beach. Robyn Lents was joining us for lunch. Elaine's foundation id card was left in Jackson for Darrell to bring. Of course - they would not let us through to go to the beach. So we went to Vanderbilt Beach. Had lunch at the Turtle Club!

Then - Toes in the sand! Yes - it was that kind of day! We stayed all afternoon and caught sunset again! Beautiful

Lauren's visit to Naples





I had a wonderful week with my sweet daughter-in-law Lauren in Naples! She was on Fall Break - so we traveled together to Naples. We worked hard and played too! Our condo needed repairs and cleaning. I was ready to quit - but Lauren said - let's knock this out!

We had to go shopping = just a little! Lauren liked "The Best of Everything" store. We had lunch at Riverwalk on Naples Bay!
