Our grandkids always like to go to Trivia.

Send snacks with them. I forgot first time and their tablemates shared, but....you know.

Appreciate any help please.
Check this: There is a beginners chess club, only for beginners at Pimlico Recreation, on Belvedere, on Thursdays 11:30, 1st and third, so 3/7/2019 is available. No experience required, learn to play chess. This opens a new door to thinking and great concentration, fun. Every one welcome.

Cat boats on Mt. Dora, about 2 hours. Lots of fun driving the small boats. Kayaking on Rainbow River near Swampy's in Dunnellon. About 2 hours on the river, easy current - my 13 year grandson had no problem with his own kayak.

She already has TV GPS for the golf cart on her phone. She is buying her own tickets for the trip to TV. We will watch her like a hawk!!!!
I bet she already has found fun things to do in TVs! My grandkids will be here in a couple of weeks. They, I am sure, have their plans for me! Enjoy

Mad


Lots of good ideas here.


I'm always surprised how Teen's and Twenties like to watch the old people at the Squares. They love to know their Grands can have fun at their ripe old ages.


It's fun to know the Young'ns like our music.

Since you showed some interest in the jet ski excursion I will tell you more...

The name of the rental is H2O Watersports. I do recommend reservations. After the excursion we walked to beautiful Clearwater Beach just a short stroll from the rental. It was a fabulous day trip!

Default Guests must be accompanied by resident at pools, etc.

Remember that you need to accompany any guests to the pool, golf, rec centers, classes, etc. And you need to get them guest passes. No cost for those. Go online or to one of the Rec Centers, Seabreeze, Lake Miona, etc. Just need addresses and date of birth. Guest do not need to go, so you can get ahead of time.
