Marilee's Birthday

Monday

Sally had a quiet day to recover from the weekend, I took myself down to Dorothy to play with her music group, it was great fun I played some jazz and some rock and had a nice time.

Today we have celebrated Marilee’s birthday, by going to the Margarita Grill, which is a Seafood restaurant built out over the river at Homosassa, managed to get some nice pics. of Great white Heron and another large heron. We had great fun at the meal, there were twelve of us. We went back to Marilee’s for cake and ice cream.

Tuesday

Today we dossed and Jim invited Marilee and us to go for another celebratory meal, this time for a steak. We were persuaded. We would go to the brand new Texas Roadhouse, only 15 miles away in Brooksville. When we arrived it was packed and it looked like an hours wait for a table, so instead we piled back into the car and headed for Cody’s (which to us discerning diners is the best steak house around this part of Florida). We were not disappointed. Great service, unlimited salad, fresh hot rolls and cinnamon butter and that was before we got our main course. Prime Rib, medium rare, red and runny, slightly to runny, so it was taken away for a bit of a warm up, came back perfect. Sally and I shared one between us. After the meal the staff clustered round us and presented Marilee with a birthday Muffin and sang Happy Birthday. We came home, I was stuffed, they brought a box. This was another lovely evening.

We have really enjoyed being with Marilee, Istachatta has so much to offer to the discerning traveler.

Tomorrow we move on
