Carney Family Newsletter for April


 Happy Spring! I just got back from SC so this newsletter is going to be all about me...lol! I had such a nice time and want to thank the Mitsuoka family for their hospitality, generosity, and kindness. 


Southern Chicken
I enjoyed all the meals out but especially the meals in
Takeshi made his famous chicken curry and also we cooked on the table....fillet,rice, zucchini, bean sprouts, broccoli and asparagus. I love taking time to cook everything it makes it more delicious. 


We enjoyed many meals out.....here, lunch at McCallister's and then California Dreaming, and Blue Sky Cafe. Breakfast at Johnny Ds. Dinner at El Cerro's and the new Italian place which was yummy. We went to the Chicken every Thursday for pork chop night....my favorite.


Talking cars
I rented a scooter for 2 days and since I couldn't handle the scooter myself Allison and Jacob went with me to Brookgreen Gardens. Everything was at its peak.....I really enjoyed myself....thanks guys
The second day Amy took me to the gardens.We had a nice and relaxing visit. We really enjoyed this guy who we met along the way.....lol



My only glimpse of the ocean.


Saw this baby alligator crossing the road....why did the alligator cross the road?



In the morning I drove John's car (thank you John) to the state park stopping at Chick fil a for a breakfast sandwich and coffee. I would drive over the causeway checking to see who was there then I would park facing Ataylla and eat my breakfast. Sometime I would go back across the causeway several times. And I also checked out the songbird feeding station at the nature center. It's pretty hard sitting at home but I will say this morning that I saw a House Finch and a Goldfinch at my sock feeder this morning.





Happy Birthday Jim
Best wishes from all of us!
