Everybody in the Hot Tub!!!

Well after lots of discussion and searches on Craigslist we bit the bullet and got ourselves a hot tub.  This is a first for us.  I wanted it for sore muscles and relaxing, Gary has other ideas.  Dave and Joyce were selling it due to "health" reasons.  Not sure what that means, they looked pretty healthy to me.  He's a former cop in Illinois so he must be honest, right?  She was from Rhode Island and she is a first for me.  I never really met anyone from RI before and it is like speaking a whole different language.  Really had to pay attention and I'm still not sure what she said.  I think she was nice.

Gary and some guys were able to get it in the trailer at Dave's house, Gary got it home okay and then we waited for some Mexican guys who were delivering trees to us to come over and help.  (Of course we would give them a tip to help us get it off the trailer and on to the lanai. They don't do anything without a tip.)  But apparently we had our days mixed up cause they never showed up.  They said Saturday but not which Saturday. Maybe they'll show up in January, who knows. Does this remind me of another place and time?  Oh yes.  I think I mentioned Gary has the patience of a pigeon and that is being kind, more like a flea.  So after waiting and waiting, he decided he was going to take the hot tub off the trailer himself!!!  I absolutely refused to get involved and gave him the cell phone to call an ambulance if he tried it himself.  Long story short, some neighbors finally helped us and it went into the lanai slick as anything.  And we are loving it.  We tried it out already, how did we live without this thing?
