Abbotts for Breakfast

 

Still have the rental car for one more full day. Karen finds a neat breakfast place on Google called “Abbotts”. We head there and find a busy, popular local breakfast and lunch place. We got there early and by the time we left it was all most full. 

 

 

Our main goal of the morning is to head to the “Marine Connection” in Fort Pierce. A very interesting large Marine store that sells new and used boating equipment. Aside from looking for specific items I always walk out with something that was not on my list going in.

Lots of Stuff

We also stop at Home Depot, Winn Dixie, Bealls, Best Buy and Lowes for some specific items.

Lunch again at “Too Jays” with Mark and Karen. Later in the afternoon Linda and I head to Publix, Walmart for a few items we missed. I stop at Lowes for a ¼ sheet of plywood to make a platform for the front of our dinghy to hold the fuel can and make a step so Linda can get in the dinghy easier.

We are running late so we decide to get a quick bite at a Burger King. We drive by and there are few cars and the building looks dark. We start to leave and see the drive up is open. We drive up and start to order and I ask if they are open for customers inside and they tell us, Yes.  We said fine, we will park and come inside. We do so and finish placing our order and have fun talking with the woman at the counter. When I go to pay she says Merry Xmas it is on the House.
