Get Faith
Psalm 150 - A song of praise because our God is so awesome he should be praised from every corner of the universe, because he is mighty and powerful and merciful. He should be praised with every song and every instrument - because our joy makes us want to sing and make a joyful noise to the Lord. Praise be to God our Father, maker of heaven and earth.

On this day
2012 - My friend Don and I went to Rojo's and Brownies and then Shores Inn. Rojo's was originally THe Lido and then after 40 plus years, that I know of, it was sold. It became Andiamo, then Rojo's then Captain Jacks and now it is the Current. When someone asks me where the Current is - I always say it is the old Lido. That is what it will always be to me - we had boat club meetings there and always took the kids there after boating. Do you have a place? That although it has changed hands, you still call it by the old name? Old habits die hard.

1492 - King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella of Spain issued the Alhambra edict expelling Jews who were unwilling to convert to Christianity. Note the year, surprised they didn't send them to America, like the convicts were sent to Australia.  In America it was "all are welcome".  

Parenting
Mike and Tom owned the Lido and my Father in law had a boat store across the street, so he was a regular patron.  They took customers there to wine and dine.  They were well known and still are remembered by the one brother, Mike who now owns another restaurant - Mikes on the Nautical Mile here.  At the Lido Nicole used to get a Shirley Temple drink, even before she asked, the waitresses knew her, and they always brought her a dish of pickles (cucumbers) with ranch dressing.  We went to Mike's last night for dinner and still got the favorite customer treatment.  Where is your favorite place?

Enjoy the day!  Make it memorable!  Happy Birthday Darlene, Lori and Maria!!
