On Thursday morning Bill and I left Ft. Lauderdale and took our first "road trip" in the new car -- destination FT. MYERS. We saw the opening Red Sox Spring Training game against the Pirates. The field at Ft. Myers is great - small and not a bad seat in the house (even the bleacher seats and they didn't cost an arm and a leg like they do at Fenway.) It was a sold out game - lots of people visiting from New England. The Red Sox lost, but we got to see Ortiz, Pedroia, Lester, and the other Red Sox stars.
Ft. Myer is about 4 hours from Ft. Lauderdale and only two hours from St. Petersburg. So after the game we kept driving north to see Bill's mom. The weather in St. Pete is amazing - it is sunny and much cooler than Ft. Lauderdale. We are going to stay for the weekend and drive back on Sunday.
