Happy Valentines Day

Our tradition continues as we travel north to Venice to enjoy the sunset at the jetty.  We started this tradition when Greg came to visit in 2015, which you can read about here.

We started the day with a walk from the hospital to Gilchrist Park, along the Harborwalk and back, 3.2 miles.  It was humid!  We enjoyed a coffee at Bayshore Park, along the Peace River.  Not only was it humid, it was windy, so we sat in the truck.

We ate lunch at home, then at 3:30 we headed to Venice.  It was raining when we arrived but it didn't last too long.  We got our traditional gelatos at Ciao Gelato and ate them under the cover of a nearby Italian restaurant.  Bill had strawberry, Italian chocolate chip and butter crunch.  My choice was chocolate and sea salted caramel.  It's always soooo good!

We drove to the Venice jetty and found a parking space in the front row.  The rocks were wet from the earlier rain as well as the waves washing over them, so we sat in the truck and did some reading while we waited for the sunset at 6:21.  

There was a big cloud bank, so once the sun dipped below that, it was the end of any good sunset but it was a very nice evening.
