I am a little hesitant for some reason...I am not sure if any friend could stand me or I them for more than 2-3 days. Sigh!<br /><br />You are very lucky Linda in that you make your own luck. I like that!<br /><br />As for politics...is is absolutely insane. Now I see that Sanders backers are rebelling against voting for Clinton. If they do that they may as well go out and vote Republican. That scares me a lot!b+ (Retire In Style Blog)https://www.blogger.com/profile/05114209481329773753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8356815487392618550.post-34166716884216780862016-07-23T11:38:26.182-07:002016-07-23T11:38:26.182-07:00What a great, lasting relationship.

So glad you have nurtured and kept your friendship even though they're now wintering in Florida.

B has visited there twice and, like you, thinks it's a special place. As for your conversations, I'm sure number one gave you lots to talk about. As for number two, you could remind your friend of Toronto mayor Rob Ford ... so I don't think crazy politicians know any particular nationality!Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08611148987085476580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8356815487392618550.post-4588193115315258022016-07-21T05:23:59.703-07:002016-07-21T05:23:59.703-07:00She sounds like fun!
