I met with the girls that were part of the girls club that the last Marquette student started and got a lot of interest. We talked about things that they did and want to do and it sounds like we will do nail painting, movies, parties. They asked if I could do make overs, I had to tell them I can not do that.

The views were spectacular, looking north over the City, Robin Island and around Atlantic Beach where we had stayed a very short week previously.
