Another Beautiful Day in Paradise. We had a bright sunny day as the rain held off until afternoon as the weather man predicted. However it was a little sticky from all the rain we've had. Janice had checked out going South and said the Trail was a mess South. We took her advice and headed North. Absentees Karen S, Suzanne G, Doug and Janice came. New skater Russ came. Welcome all. It was really good to see Karen S and Suzanne as they have not skated with us in quite a while. We ended up in 3 groups of skater/bicyclers. One group was last seen headed for Tarpon Springs and never seen again. One group turned around at Crystal Beach and did 12.2 miles. One group turned around earlier and did about 9 miles. We had 5 bicyclers.

We Brunched at Iris's as planned. We got in and seated easily as the lunch crowd wasn't there yet. We got good service and the Brunches were pretty good. We gave them a 9.3.
