Friday Nov. 5.
We visited with some friends of Tom's pilot friend, Saul. They were so welcoming and fun to see again.
We had met them a few years ago and rented their home in Ocean Reef. They built a beautiful new home here and they invited us over for a swim. We showed up just as they were eating a late lunch. She insisted that we join them- there is no refusing a meal!!! She grew up in Greece and to decline lunch, although we had already eaten, would have been a true offense. About halfway through the day, I realized she thought my name was Lorraine. She must have thought I was dumb, or deaf, because she had to call me multiple times before I would answer. We were laughing about it and one of the kids said, Mom why didn't you just correct her? I answered, she offered us her pool, her car , her house for laundry facilities- she can call me whatever she wants!! It isn't so bad to be named after a yummy quiche!
