Mike and I went to the Gardenfest at Riverside Park in Vero Beach. It's an annual event hosted by the Garden Club of Indian River County and there are vendors there from plant nurseries from all over Florida. This year we bought a beautiful red Hibiscus plant for $20. Then we went to Mulligan's Beach House on the ocean for lunch.
The Indian River Genealogical Society in association with 3 other societies had their annual Valentine Seminar on Saturday the 17th at the First Presbyterian Church in Vero. This was their 35th Valentine Seminar. The guest speakers were Pam & Richard Sayre, both well-know National speakers. We had a 2-hour presentation on Google Earth for Genealogists by Rick and Pam, Rick spoke on Land Office Records and Pam finished out the day with a fun presentation on Rogues & Rascals. Our lunch was catered by Toojay's and I had ordered the Turkey Wrap. The seminar started at 9:00 and we finished about 3:45.
Then I rushed home from the Seminar because my cousin Frances and her husband Jack were driving in to spend the night with us before they went on down to their timeshare. I had bought a London Broil and Mike put it in the Crockpot with the Knorr Sauerbraten mix and then added carrots and potatoes later for our dinner that night. So when I got home, I just had to fix a salad and heat the Hawaiian Rolls.
Then Sunday we took Frances and Jack down to Mulligan's Beach House in Vero for a late breakfast. We all ordered the Country Connection - scrambled eggs, biscuit & gravy, sausage and homefries - not very original on anyone's part, but we agreed that we all made a good choice.
We went down to visit with Frances and Jack at their timeshare in Pompano on the 25th. Since pets aren't
allowed at the timeshare, we took Tinker to Fletcher's house for the couple of nights that we would be staying in Pompano. We had a good time visiting with Frances and Jack and they fed us well, as usual.
Then on Monday the 27th we went down to Fletcher's. Before going back home, we went to Burger Fi for lunch. This was our first experience eating at Burger Fi and boy, was it ever good. After lunch we went back to Fletcher's and got Tinker and then came home.
