Regrettably it is time to begin my trip back home from Tampa today. It's been a great week with my daughter and grandpuppy!
I helped my daughter test drive some new vehicles and dicker over prices with the salesmen. No decision yet but she is beginning to narrow her choice.
I got to see the USF campus in north Tampa. It's a large and beautiful campus. I was surprised to learn that 40,000+ students attend the University of South Florida on that one campus. USF has two other campuses in Florida. I also got to meet some of her fellow grad students in the psychology department and see my daughter's office.
We ate at a lot of good restaurants .... Mexican, Chinese, Indian and seafood. Although we walked the dog each day around the large nature preserve boardering her condo community, I think I have still gained a few pounds.
Yesterday we ate at Crabby Bill's, a great seafood restaurant right on the St. Pete Beach at St. Petersburg, and then we visited the Salvador Dali Art Museum, also in St. Petersburg.
Just as it has warmed up here, I have to begin my long and tedious trek back home to the frigid temperatures back in Missouri. Darn!
