Cape May Thursday August 3rd

Aloha and Bonjour from balmy Cape May. It is currently 89 degrees and quite humid. I was going to cuss and swear about it but why bother?

Ooops, sorry, that's Yankee Stadium, not Cape May. It was easily as hot that weekend, tho'..That weekend in NY is the time I vowed to never drink Grappa again. Anyway, I digress...

Yesterday was a hoot, we went and played of all things miniature golf. We had met the owners of this small playland, with mini-golf, race cars, arcade games, driving range and a batting cage. They gave us free passes, so off we went. I didn't golf, I used the driving range and managed several drives over 130 yards. Then I collapsed from heat and went to the hospital. Just Kidding. After we got done being miserable there, half our party went to the beach to be miserable and Patty, Emily, Viola and I went shopping. We went to the Cape May Linen Outlet and wait 'til you see the gorgeous quilt I bought. After about an hour we came back here and I slept for two hours. Don't know what the rest of them did. Dinner was a potluck thing at Michael's sister Nora's of Victorian house fame. Eggplant Parmesean, pasta with marinara sauce, salads, bread. It was like being at Carol's. Yum-Ola. We played cards and came back and went to bed. Trust me, it's too damn hot to do anything at all.

Cape May is actually a beautiful little town with an amazing amount of fancy trim of many different colors on the Victorian houses that abound. It's pretty flat here so you can see for miles. I had planned to walk every morning but it is way too uncomfortable to do that. All in all, nothing to report...I can't begin to list the things the Fighting Pascarellas have done, so will compile all that when I get home.

Viola Quotes of the Day:

When coming out onto the porch sucking on a juicebox : "I don't have any underwear on..."

To the clerk at the Linen store upon seeing a display bed: "So, do you sleep here?"

Later Gater...
