We had another perfect day of sunny, warm weather and light traffic on the interstate. I do not remember having so little traffic and no slowdowns on our trips to Captiva. We stopped in Ft. Myers for gas and a quick lunch at Wendy's. We then stopped for a car wash at the busy 1st Class Car Center on Gladiolus Drive before shopping at Publix for provisions. I came prepared with a grocery list. As usual the aisles were crowded with hectic Saturday shoppers mostly tourists who did not know the store. Al bought some liquor from the store next to Publix.
We arrived at Captiva Cottage about 3:00 finding Margarethe there hooking up the phone after she had installed a new cabinet for the TV and electronics. The cottage also has a new stairway and landing on the outside. Everything looked good and inviting.
After getting the car unloaded and things in place, we enjoyed drinks on the porch and decided to have an easy dinner in since it was a tiring day. I made grilled hot dogs on buns with all the fixins and baked beans. This is a menu that Al loves but I do not serve often but glad I had agreed to buying hot dogs since it was a simple dinner. Later that night we discovered the TV was not working after many tries to get the cable on. Finally decided to call in the am about the problem since we did want to see tomorrow's Super Bowl.
