Arrival

Mom and I were not ready for an early start this morning to Glendon's place. It turned out we left a lot later, but all the last minute details were taken care of. We took a plastic bag of garbage and found a dumpster over by the Suntrust bank. This was an easy task to get rid of the garbage. Mom drove all the way here to Williston. We passed white water crane type birds with skinny s shaped necks. They were searching for food with their tiny eyes looking kind of sideways. We saw oak trees with the tree trunks submerged in water. You got the sense that the State of Florida was sinking into a watery ocean. This picture was taken in Micanopy. I guess we just drove down there to look at the old houses and antique places selling things. I like this house because it looks like something very Victorian. It is not to often you will see a house like this one. When we arrived I got stung by the stinging neddle plant on my leg. It itched quite a bit for awhile, but eventually the stinging went away. I tried to feed Gator some corn chips which he didn't really take to it. He cured his nose up to me. I got to help turn the beef ribs on the open barbeque pit out back. It was fun to turn them and more fun to eat them. The ribs went nicely with potato salad, corn, regular salad and diet cola. We were suppose to have an extra guest, but he never showed up.
