We are excited for the day because it is our granddaughter Natalie's first birthday.
We got up, had coffee, and walked into Stuart for the Art Fair. There are so many people wandering around and the exhibits and products are beautiful. There are paintings, jewelry, small wooden buildings, flowers made out of all kinds of materials, and more. We bought a metal sign to put in our basement when we get home. It is round and says, "Saltwater Born, Florida" and there is a big shell in the middle of it.
We Facetimed our family and attended the party for about a half hour. We didn't want to miss the fun of our family gathered together, which is always chaotic and full of laughs.
The Harley Davidson in Stuart (called "Treasure Coast Harley") was having an open house with food, a band, prizes, and stuff for sale. So, we got our bikes out and rode 5 miles to the dealership. We had to stop at a bike shop to put air in our tires! We ate, listened to the band, and tried on clothes (Harley dealership visits can be very expensive, but we didn't buy anything, thank goodness).
We stopped at Publix on the way back and got a few groceries. We left our big backpacks at home somewhere and only have a small cheap one. We squished most of the items into the small backpack. The 12 pack of Diet Coke got taken apart and put into two separate plastic grocery bags that Kip will carry on his handlebars. Yes, I know, it wasn't the best plan!
We made it most of the way home, and one of the Diet Coke cans hit the spoke or something and blew up, and Kip just about lost his balance and wiped out. I was just trying to not squish the two peaches that I had dangling from my backpack.
We dinghied back to the boat and sat on the back deck to relax and cool down. We had a light supper and plan on going to bed early.
