Thank you Thomas, what a beautiful city and your description makes one ready to pack up and go visit.
Lorraine, I can certainly relate to your lifestlye-except for the sailing-I prefer to not have the ground moving under me.
My Cali keeps me laughing as I'm sure Rags does you-they know how to pick a good mommy!

_{Hi Joyce, your welcome! Glad to be of service, hope you enjoyed your Christmas! Till next time, have an awesome weekend my friend! :) God_bless you}

Hi Joyce!

Thomas did a 'bang-up' job describing St Pete - pretty soon everybody will be knocking on my door LOL

The idea of the 'earth moving under my feet' makes me laugh:  usually if I'm on a boat for a few hours I have to get used to the ground not moving under me LOL [they call that the drunken sailor walk, I think ;-)]

Cats do indeed pick with whom they wish to stay - we're just the lucky recipients of their affection  :-)
