Big old beautiful live oak tree …Sherry has turned me into a tree hugger…but no one to take my pic so you just have to believe me…Florida and all over the deep south is full of big old live oak trees…in all kinds of twisted shapes…another interesting tree is the banyan tree…neighbor here has a very old one in the front yard…I am going to take a pic of it ….the leaves don’t look so good…I want to get the pic before something happens to it…it could be just because it is winter…but I don’t remember of it looking like this last year…I will take pic and show…

A dock at the campground …..it was a few sites down from mine…there are sites in front of it…but I never seen any boats there… farther down the lake not at campground …but can walk there….is a boat ramp…

Dell and I fished off the dock a few times…here is Dell baiting her hook…or her line of hooks??…One of the rangers joked around about her line of fish hooks…wondering what she was trying to catch…guess she had a line of 6 hooks on…lol…it was quite a fun time joking about this,…

After the cold first week…the second week was nice warm weather…but the fog set in each morning and we could never see a sun rise…so I just took pic’s of the lake and fog…

On a foggy hike…

Another day less fog….this hike around our lake was fantastic doesn’t this look like typical old Florida… but I never made it around the lake…about 2 miles…due to the back thing…but did go at least 1/4 mile or a little more each day…

And the rest of the story….

I am still trying to rest and take it easy so my spine and back will heal….it will never be cured but my goal is to be functional…so there is not much going on around here…last week end there was an air show at the Melbourne International Airport…the Blue Angels were there…dads house is only a couple miles from the airport so we had a front yard seat…it was ok…to over cast to see good tho…I started back with the church ladies painting some Christmas ornaments for their Bazaar in the fall…first time I have been able to sit much and do anything…so last Thurs. I went to Jo-Ann’s and took a quilt block class…they are doing a wall hanging …I missed the first two classes but think I can make them up well enough…well my plans for PA and north travels this summer are back in the Jell-O bowl….you know plans made in Jell-O…I will tell you more when I know more…again dad perked up when I told him I wasn’t going north…he is doing much better started doing more again…sometimes I think he wants to get rid of me for a while..lol…like just as much as I need to get away…all for now thanks for looking and come back soon…blessings to all …G&M

  1. So glad to hear I've inspired your tree hugging. Those live oaks are SO hugable and I swear they hug back. Look for something to set your camera on if it has a timed setting. That's how I do mine when I'm alone. Love your foggy tree lined lane. Hope your back will allow you ever increasing freedom outdoors. Most back problems are better standing than sitting but it sounds like yours might not be one of those.
