Party on the Stella di Mare, June 29, 2011
[dcs_p]Anthony and his family flew in yesterday, getting geared up for the big holiday weekend. In case you’ve forgotten, Anthony is my cousin. The Feds have an idea he’s running what’s left of the New Orleans mob, and they like to tail him. But it looks like they might have their own families to attend to, because we’re not seeing any familiar faces hanging about. Of course, it was family night last night–I took everybody to Trattoria Romana in Boca. We had the private room in back, so if the Feds were on the job, they weren’t seeing much.[/dcs_p]
[dcs_p]Today it’s a boy’s day–no wives allowed. Victor’s setting up a party on the Stella, and we’re cruising down to Miami. My girl’s bringing along a friend for Anthony, and Buddy Shuler and his wild chick, Rachel–the one he things is an angel–are expected. Nathan’s invited, of course. We’ll pick him up in Miami and probably hang at Franco’s this evening, and there will be plenty of takers, but Nathan won’t play. He never gives in to temptation, and I really don’t know how he does it.[/dcs_p]
