Tue, Dec 15, Lazy Lakes RV Park, Sugarloaf Key, FL:  Another beautiful, warm and sultry day. Got the laundry and grocery shopping out of the way and stopped at the Stoned Crab for lunch. Mike got a shrimp wrap and I ordered this salad with shrimp and a crab claw. They served our food and my salad had four shrimp on top—complete with their heads, little antenna, and their little legs. Oh man, I said. I can’t eat that with their heads on. Oh, she said, they leave their heads on because there is an oil sack in its head that makes them more flavorful. OMG, I said. That’s even worse. So, they took them back and lopped their heads, legs, and antenna off and brought it back. Kind of ruined my appetite. Won’t be ordering that again. We stopped on the way home at a landscape store to check out some plants. We have a rather large planter in our site. It runs the whole length of our site and we want to plant something in there. I want something that is maintenance-free. They recommended a grass that have these little red flowers. I think it’s called fire cracker or something. Anyway, there’s a guy here who will plant them for us. 85 today and beautiful.
