♥♥♥ Anniversary Dinner at Buca Di Beppos ♥♥♥

Today I celebrated being with my Best Friend and the man who makes my life so happy & complete… for 42 years… Yes all the things we promised in our vows have happened… Good times, bad times, sickness & in health but we managed to stick out through thick & thin… The time is going by so fast.

We have two beautiful daughters who are both nurses and married to wonderful men who love them so much… I have 6 grandchildren. Two beautiful & special granddaughters, Twin grandsons who are 5 and full of energy and excitement, and 2 Step grandsons who are perfect little gentlemen (almost). We are so proud of the way they have all turned out and enjoy being with them when we are not on the road.

We started out with my honey making me a delicious breakfast… and then in the late afternoon we went to one of our favorite Italian Restaurants Bucca de Peppo’s in Brandon, Fl. The food was simply to die for and I am sure it did some clogging of the arteries but it was oh so good!


When we arrived they took us on a tour of the entire restaurant including the kitchen

a wine cellar on the ceiling... how cool is that

Each room was themed...they even had Frank Sinatra room

the food was delish... we had warm bread with a salad

The dinner we had was Quattro al Forno
Four of our favorite baked pastas, Cheese Manicotti, Chicken Cannelloni, Baked Ravioli and Stuffed Shells. Then the waitress surprised us with a dessert of a yummy walnut brownie with ice cream & whip cream on it. Served by candlelight!


What a fantastic day and we are so fortunate to be living the life we always dreamed of Fulltiming in our 40 foot motorhome Tassie… We have traveled to all 50 states and seen a lot but there is still so much more to see…


Have Fun, Travel Safe & Stay Healthy!!!
