Visit with the Gregory's August 4th and 5th, 2006
Because of a mistake in my scheduling of this vacation  we found we had an extra day before we were to return to Cleveland. We spent that last evening and  day of our vacation with Bill and Dana Gregory  and their 2 boys Devin and Jack. As you can see by the pictures I took they have a very beautiful home, which is located with-in a short bike ride of downtown Fort Lauderdale. There were plenty of homes in the area that had their own dock on which a 40 foot or larger yacht could be tied up. 
Their  pool temperature was near 90 degrees and well used as you can see by the lap races that the boys and their friend were having.  You will notice that  The one who came in third of a lap race was always thrown in by the winners.
We saw that there  were plenty of chameleons in the area. They are  a small but very fast lizard and I do  not know how as a young boy I was able to catch them. Diane noticed the large green lizard on the fence. We were told that they were known as a Cuban Lizard and they were very nasty. I understand their main source of food is the smaller chameleon.  Dana is quite a cook, and from what I could see everyone pitched in to help her in the preparation and clean up after the meal.  Diane and I want to thank  the Gregory's  for your generous hospitality in offering us a room for the night before our return to Cleveland. We totally enjoyed our visit. I have to admit that Minnie was not to pleased to smell the aroma of Heidi on our clothes when we got home. You were lucky we were near our weight limit or we might have tried to sneak her into our luggage. But then she does have that one fault. It is probably best that she not be forced to meet alot of new people as how much pee can one dog hold for those special moments
