Place: St Pete Beach, FL 6
Main activity: Sun - bike ride, cooking, Bette
Notes: Woke early and had lots of noise coming from towing company trying to reach someone and dialing the outdoor intercom over and over and getting loud not-available messages between 430 - 530a. Pretty unbelievable. Couldn't go back to sleep, left on bike around 7a with sunrise and wasn't sure what I'd feel up to. Took the flattest route east and then north ... and then part of Clam Bayou - brought back many memories of last year as I was getting ready to leave this place - has been much of that lately and don't particularly love it. Bette came for breakfast just before 10a - did fresh juice (grapefruit & orange), coffee, scrambled eggs, avocado toast and kiwi. Was quite nice. Raleigh came with and we took him out for a bit, ordered some Amazon stuff for Bette. Pam (realtor) called and talked to her for awhile. Bette left around 1230p, I got to work prepping chicken & veggies to roast. Talked to Mic for her bday, prepped cauliflower and parsnips to steam for mash, got the Vitamix out and had to clean every part of it - more reminiscing of the dirty place in TX (and being sooo glad to be out of that situation). Roasted chicken w/ onions, carrots, parsnips, garlic and 2 big sweet potatoes on the side. Bette back around 215p w/o Raleigh and we shared the afternoon meal and watched some football, chatted. I had lots of cleanup/storage to do and got stuff ready for the bone broth procedure. Was too much for my small crockpot so will have to do in 2 batches. Didn't make it to shower until after 5p. Dishwasher run 2x in a day! Missed the most brilliant part of sunset but walked over and caught the tail end. A boat called Sea Ya was being towed in!
