Fri 13 Mar Day 62

 8:30 AM temp 70 F & quite windy

Sheila got up early and headed off to Zumba class, I eventually got up, had breakfast & when Sheila got back we went up to the pool for the VB game.  It is quite windy and gusty so our awning is in but it is not a cold wind at all, it’s quite comfortable, it just blows the ball around so it makes for a game with lots of laughs, more than normal.

Sheila went out to get a perm for the Palms Academy event tonight; I had lunch at the cabana & listened to the music before coming home. About 6 pm, we went to the clubhouse for the Palms Academy event. They changed the event quite a bit from when we went two years ago.  They did still have celebrity impersonators – Sofia Loren, Dolly Parton & Joan Rivers that you could take pictures with. They didn’t have the entrance way through the banquet room with celebrity greeters, movie posters and fancy decorations. They didn’t do the voting on park events etc so it was shortened, but they did have a very good music group for dancing.  They were good, they did our favorite “In the Mood” and it was swingin! Mega liqueur was there as usual with free drinks, Sheila’s only complaint was that they put too much liquor in the glass and didn’t leave enough room for her preferred amount of mixer. Oddly enough, I’ve never heard any other complaints about that!  We danced a ton & finally left about 10 PM when the band was supposed to quit.  They were still playing when we left and they had been playing non stop from around 8:00 or before.
