Friday has arrived
Holly is eating her gizzards. I guess she got the early morning munchies, after I took her out to take care of business. She was upset with us for leaving her and not taking her on a car ride. I took her for a short truck ride afterwards which she enjoyed, but it didn't make up for what happened to her. She cried and sulked when we got home. She wouldn't even eat the pieces of steak we gave her from the Outback restaurant. Mom and I stopped at Outback and got a Porterhouse steak dinner to go and split it when we got home. It was a ten ounce steak ,so we both got five ounces. Plus we split the potato, bread and salad. We took a twenty six dollar dinner and turned it into two thirteen dollar dinners which we both liked. There was no cooking and we got free plastic ware afterwards to use with other foods. The test I took was with the Division of Forestry in the edge of Palatka on the outskirts of Bunnell. It claims to be on the North side of Bunnell, but it was a bit further than expected. The lady distributing the test said one guy's GPS broke and he just couldn't find the place. He plans to try again next week. Mom and I arrived at one in the afternoon. I went in to use to restroom, but went to work on the test right afterwards. Two ladies joined me a bit later. I was glad to finish and get the work behind me. Mom and I went home traveling a bit on A1A ; instead of, US1. We got to see the ocean next to the shoreline. Houses were right across the street and the pelicans were flying overhead in formation of maybe six at a time, later three at a time. The ocean turned into Condoville when we got to Ormand in Volusia County. Mom went back to US1 and we finished the trip in good time. Today is my last full day to play with Holly. I hope it will be fun. She will forget about us when her owner comes for her tomorrow.

Have you ever tried the "bloomin' onion" at the Outback. I find the dipping sauce a little bit too spicy for me but then I am very sensitive to spices and hot sauces. I usually just put a big pile of ketchup on my plate and dip the pieces of the bloomin onion into the ketchup. It is good. Sort of like eating onion rings. That drive on A1A is what I saw each year when my parents came to Florida on vacation. And it was wonderful to be driving along next to the ocean and watching the waves break on the beach. The sand was white and clean. As a child I just couldn't wait until we got to our destination. When we finally reached our efficiency in West Palm Beach, I would keep "bugging" my parents as to when we were going to the beach. They would finally "cave in" and take me. I typically would get a sunburn and then spend the rest of my time at the motor court reading comic books and drinking Coke. Life was good then. I wish you luck on your test. Now is the sitting and waiting time. I took a test with the Division of Forestry here in Orange county but all of the questions were of an entymological nature and so I am sure that I did not do very well. I just didn't know the Latin scientific names of bugs. Have a nice day. Lew
