"Work with me here"
Our trip to visit the Raffertys in Boca Raton
started at 3:30AM in the morning as we had to catch the 6:15 flight. We
arrived a little late at Fort Lauderdale Airport but Raffy was right there
waiting with the officer at Pick up area. We left in the Mom Bomb and
julie used up the batteries in the camera playing with it on the ride
home. After a tour of the Rafferty's new mansion we settled down for some
lunch - Raff was using solar power to cook the burgers - Julie had to go
out and fix the grill. Then out to the
links - of course raff had everything set up when we got there.
After "working with the manager" they let us go out in 2 groups
(with the cooler of course) after telling us we already broke 14 rules and just
don't break the 5-some rule - well, we didn't until the 5th hole. Raff
lost many bets and got many phone calls that day - I think Gore won the election
when we were on the tenth hole and then lost it when we got kicked off at
17. Then home for some thumbie, Drug Dealer, and
mexican Dice - Those raffs scammed us and used the NA for the penalty
drink. Everyone got up early on Saturday - except Karen of Course - some
lounging around at home and then off to the pool where the guys kicked the
girls' asses in trivia pursuit - even though sean was helping the girls
cheat. Later that night - out in the
limo, dinner at Jetty's and then the wonderful eggnog party. Next on the
agenda was the dueling piano bar - that was a good time. After arriving
home, everyone was ready for bed except Burnsie (he is still sorry about
flipping the cooler over in the laundry room) who wanted to play cards. On
Sunday it was off to Wilt's to watch the football games and then it was off to
the Holiday Inn in Naples.
