A Birthday Party Without One Of The Celebrants.

Saturday, August 14, 2004

Saturday night was to be the reason we came to Florida. But, as mentioned, my uncle was not up to snuff and wouldn't be joining us for the dinner celebration that Peter had planned. Neither would my Aunt Bea. She didn't want to leave him alone. So the four of us met Peter and his ex-wife's cousin, David, at JB's Restaurant in Deerfield Beach. It was a lovely Floridian night - quite warm but not too hot to sit outside adjacent to the beach. What a pretty sight - the water, the blue sky fading to dark blue as the sun set. Very romantic. The restaurant was beautiful and the food, excellent.

The restaurant was right on the beach. Beautiful! And great food too.

After the dinner we drove (minus David who had other plans) over to Bea and Walters - just a few minutes away. Peter brought a birthday cake and we sung happy birthday to my uncle. The cake and the company seemed to perk him up and it was a bittersweet moment.
