MERRY CHRISTMAS!

FROZEN TOMATO PLANTS

FRIENDS WATCHING ME BLOG

ORANGE CACHE AREA

CACHE OVER THERE

THE CACHEMERRY CHRISTMAS EVERY ONE !!!

Have a couple things to share today. First is a pic of frozen tomato plants. These did not have a light bulb in among the plants just had covers. They don't look so good. It is going to freeze tonite and Monday also, so even covered I doubt these will make it. I might try making some green fried tomatoes. Never had them. Grandpa will cover them all again tonite. You can click on pic to see how bad they are.

The second pic is a couple "friends" keeping watch over me while I blog! lol I need more friends!!

The big orange is a geocache me and Maggie found last week, it is one of only two I have found here in Florida since I came back in Nov. When I looked for this on last winter when I was here I could not find it, well looking back on the logs I see that it was missing then. When I pulled into the parking lot a boy muggler came out of his house across the way and watched me the whole time I was there, so after about 1/2 hr I just took the cache with me to look for the next one, went back about on hr later he was gone so I replaced the cache. It was obvious he was not going to leave until i did. The log was very wet, but it dried out so I could sign it and put it back.

Having ham for dinner grandpa cooked it yesterday, it seems like that if he has something to do or something is going on, he has to do it or get ready several days ahead of time. Hmmmmm.....

oh well, .........................

All for now thanks for taking a look, and have a blessed day

WEEKEND FUN & CACHE OF THE DAY

WE WENT ACROSS THIS.....if there were not some Mc-Mansions behind our house I could see this bridge out my kitchen window.

TO GET HERE THE OCEAN ....It is about 4 mi. from where I live to the ocean, and this is the first time I have made it there since I got here. Those waves do not look big in the pic, but they are BIG! And make a lot of noise, and pounding the sand. I forgot how beautiful the ocean is, I love it there and plan on going often. It wasn't real hot on Sat. and I took Maggie out and about with me. She stayed in the truck a few min while I checked it out, I saw a bunch of paw prints in the sand so I went back and got her. LOL she was so funny (her first trip to the ocean) she loved the sand and all ran around sniffing, but she did not like those waves and the water chasing her when it came ashore. I tried to get a pic of her side stepping trying to get away from it, ever see a dog run backwards. LOL, well she did! We didn't stay long didn't want the dog on the beach police to get us. No dogs aloud on the beach in Bevard Co. and its hard to go with the dogs because Bevard Co is about 70 miles long, and we are about in the middle.

THEN WE WENT HERE....a nice little park on beach side ( as apposed to the main land) it was full of dogs being walked. We ate our lunch here and looked for a couple geocaches but did not find any. I am not having much luck finding caches here. Cant figure out why. After this park visit we headed back across the bridge, but on the way back I spotted a neat nursery and gift shop. WoW expensive, but I will go back in Jan. I will take some pic's then.

SUDZI CACHE AREA

THE CACHE This is a cache I found last summer in PA. It was located at a car wash took awhile because there were mugglers tending to cars. But finally got it on the side of the building.

While we were over on beach side we went to a bunch of yard sales. I got a few books and some other paper stuff, and that was about it. Really that's all I am looking for at this time. Its for my altered art projects.When we got back stopped at a few more yard sales and then headed home all in all we were gone about 6 hrs.

Sunday took my daily trip to wall mart LOL, it is close , too close , and worked on my altered art cooked roast in crock pot, took Maggie for a couple walks, and that was about it. I am posting about my art on my other blog check it out. I am working on a Junkque Journal (junk journal)for my self go take a look. http://redapplejunction.blogspot.com/

All for now thanks for looking and come again

TOMATOE TENT CITY & CACHE OF THE DAY

TENT CITY

CHRISTMAS TIME

ROCKY GLENN CACHE

THE CACHE WEATHER IN FLORIDA : 32 LOW LAST NITE..HIGH TODAY 60 COOL BUT NICE

Well with the temp going down to 32 and freeze mode, it was time for dad to get out the covers for the tomatoes. Looks like a tent city around here, an upscale tent city with electric. He put a light bulb in each one to keep his babies warm lol. Last year in Jan he had them on for 2 weeks because it was the coldest winter in FL in 50 years. Hope its better this year. The tomatoes are really good better than last year.

Its Christmas time when I am making peanut butter blossom cookies. Getting ready to send to kids and Gkids.

Not doing much right now with the cold weather, Maggie doesn't want to go for walks in the cold, she really didn't like the cold in PA. either.

I am working on my altered art, I post about that on my other blog. http://redapplejunction.blogspot.com/

Went to Goodwill today, and found a really neat little folding table about 3' X 2' just the right size for where I want it. Also got Maggie a new water and food bowl. Speaking of Maggie she has another hot spot. I am now trying to get her off the wagon train chicken. Maybe that is the cause, one of the things that "could" cause is food. She is a pistol to say the least. Can I say SPOILED !

The cache of the day is one I found last summer in PA. On the edge of a cemetery. Was not to hard to find with the GPS, when you take a look at where it is, in the brush, you would wonder how one could ever find it. In most cases like this you could not with out the GPS. I have not been caching much while I have been here, don't really know why. Maybe because when I did go I did not have good luck finding any, only found one so far.

Well this is all for now sure hope some fun exciting things happen so I can blog and not bore you.

Thanks for stopping by

FIRST TOMATOES, GRANDPA IN THE PATCH

OUR FIRST TOMATOES OF THE SEASON! JEALOUS ?? LOL

GRANDPA TENDING TOMATOES

VINTAGE CHRISTMAS CURTAINS

CURTAINS & VINTAGE POTHOLDERS WEATHER IN FLORIDA: TEMP MORNING 40 AFTERNOON 64 & SUN

Today was cool but nice, really did not do much, worked around house, made lasagna, got some cookie dough ready to bake, worked in the Florida room. I will post about that on my other blog tomorrow. http://redapplejunction.blogspot.com/ Went to big lots, and wall mart forgot to get flour for cookies yesterday. I wanted to go to the beach this week but looks like it will be to cold for that.

The pic of tomatoes are the first ones we got the other day, we are now getting 2 or 3 a day. So trying to come up with some ways to eat them. Soon he will be giving them away to his friends.

He planted some peppers too, they are coming along slow, I think they need more sun.

I hung up some Christmas curtains that I brought from PA. This is the first chance I have had to use them. Nice for a red and white kitchen. Also hung up the red and white vintage hand crochet pot holders I had. There were 7 of them, and I think I need about 6 more to go between the ivy curves. The ivy was already there, stenciled on. Hung up the cherries plaque above the clock.

Maggie still is not eating good, and I have to stand in the kitchen while she does eat. My DD thinks she might be home sick. When we got in the truck and left her house, I guess she figured she was going home as she usually does. But we spent 2 days on the road, and came to FL. She started digging at her hip again I hope the hot spot is not coming back!

Well thats if for now, thanks for stopping by.
