Bar People

Spent a weekend doing hotel respite at the Pirate Cove Resort and Marina in Stuart. Nice balcony room overlooking the pool,with a little fridge that  chilled my Boddington's Pub Ale to a level of coldness that would have set the Brit's tongues clucking.And a shower that I could walk to naked! This is a small hotel/bar/restaurant that also rents dock space to people living on their boats. Naturally these guys (and their invariably younger wives) spend a good deal of their time in the bar,where Gordon quickly became a regular.
 Very conversational these folks. One woman demonstrated doggy massage; one guy was a failed tennis pro.(" I was ranked 200th in the world after high school") Another guy looked like he just came in from the Hi Hat in Providence, and waxed nostalgic about figure 8 racing at Riverside Park.
     The best one was the guy who gave us his card advertising his business of scattering remains (pets too!) at sea from his private plane,complete with a video and a flyover of the watering hole of your choice.
     We actually broke the rule and talked a little politics with these people. Surprise! They all want Obama care.
