It's kinda like double jeopardy, where the stakes can really change.

I just had a guy from the bank in here that George talked to the other day. He said he had to come in and check things out. Well, an hour later, he wants to start diving again, go to Bonaire, and spend the rest of his life living on an island! I do that to a lot of people!! It's fun!!:-)

That's cool Timmmy, I wish someone would take me diving off Key Largo! I guess I'll just have to settle for Bonaire in 2.5 weeks!

Home sweet home. Ahhhhhh. Hey Jerry, can we have wine yet?

It got up to 78 today, tomorrow we're back to FL Normal. :-) NO MORE BOOTS.

We planned to go to Lauderdale at the end of the month for a weekend, with maybe a day trip to Key Largo. Just waiting to see what the situation with my fam is, and if I need to fly to AL and for how long.

Well, I just uncorked mine, I don't care if it breathes 30 min or not. I don't think Vendange Chardonnay picked up from CVS is so special as needing to breathe. lol (or what do I know, maybe it does!)

PegiSue, we've got to come up with a gimmick to get you some more sales, (I personally want that wooden mermaid, how much is she?), like a buy one get one half off sale, or something. I know that the street people (they all come to FL to be warm at night) come out at night in the cities, so wine night might not be a good idea!!! You guys need a downtown Summertime Block Party or something.

Everyone loves this place! I just don't understand how they come in ALL the time and say they NEVER want to see me close. All I can think is "WELL, THEN BUY SOMETHING!!!"

Sell some cheap knicknacks like sand dollars you've painted, make postcards of your paintings, sell sharks tooth necklaces.....something cheap to draw them in and make them fall in love with the more expensive things. Are you selling any islandy jewelry?

Well, kids, I'm gonna head home. I'm just sitting here in the dark corner of my shop!LOL
But I am listening to Buffett REALLY loud!:-)
I need to go hang some art down at the restaurant, but I think it's too much into dinner time to do that. In other words, I don't know what I'm doing!
Thanks for the happy hour guys!!:-)

Jerry, are they the same glasses you wore over your scuba mask on Bonaire? They look very familiar. That is a great pic of you and Louise. I hope to drink a glass of vino with you some day soon. I am off to try sleep.
