February was spent socializing with friends in the warm weather with shorts and t-shirts alternating with cold fronts with jackets and winter clothes. We attended First Friday Fest with our friends, Brenda & Geoff and Kim & Terry follwed by dinner at a local Mexican restaurant. On Saturday, February 7, our friends, Toby & Joanne drove down from Vero Beach to see our Farmer's Market and Craft Show. After lunch, we watched the Mardi Gras parade. As you can see, this was one of our cold days! On Sunday, February 8, our friends, Wendy & Bob, who were stranded in the Erie Canal with us in 2006, stopped by on their way to their timeshare in South Beach. It was great seeing them again; however, the visit was too, too short!

The Jazz Society provided entertainment in Marina Square all week from 11 AM to 2 PM; they know how to celebrate in this town.

On February 13, the St. Lucie Tribune reported the nation's high temperature for yesterday -- 86 degrees in Ft. Pierce, FL! We knew it was hot; however, we could not believe it.
