October 23, 2000: Norm's House

In the morning, we watched the talk shows.  George thought they were so crummy and didn't want to retire and watch them.     Grandma, Norm, and I watched "Young and the Restless".   Norm thought the character, Sharon, was very attractive.   I helped George wash Grandma's car.   The temperature was 84 degrees which was wonderful.    

Then, we rode over to Norm's house.   I was so surprised how big it was inside.      He said he had at least 12 closets in the house.  His wife used to have all of the closets full of clothes.      His house was decorated in the 50s/60s style.   He showed us his indoor pool. He was in the process of putting solar panels together that would be used to heat the pool.    

Got back to Grandma's mobile home and had lasagna for lunch.  Then, I had to take the cab back to the Tampa airport to go back to Chicago.        I talked to the cab driver who said he had moved to Florida from New York 20 years ago and never regretted it.
