More FL pix

Here are a few more Florida pictures for your viewing pleasure. We had a great time and it was fun seeing so many people again. We counted up 26 different people that we spent time with on this trip. Seeing Eric, Lori, and Jananne was a complete (and great) surprise for us. We wish they could have spent more time but the couple days we had were great. It was also nice to let the kids play with their West cousins since they hadn't been together much before this trip. Mason and Kylie were still trying to work out some 'issues' when they left. (I'll have to try to scan the letter she sent him)
I found 997 shark teeth this year including 4 of the biggest ones I've ever found. I have to thank my little brother, he told me where to look and then didn't find any for himself. I was sure I would break 1000 but Arden came down with an ear infection the morning of the day we left so I spent several hours in the Urgent Care Clinic with her just before we left. She is getting better, taking antibiotics externally for a week.

Baby Gopher Tortoise



Here's the baby Gopher Tortoise that was found crossing the road. He was released to be eaten by a raccoon later.....

Sharks teeth


These are the biggest I've ever found here.

Interesting, very interesting


So I was doing a little on-line research tonight and looking at snow fall data for our area. When I looked at this winter as compared to others with high totals, I got this graph. It looks like every 13-14 years we get hammered.

Some more snow.

So we went for a little trudge today; I would say walk, but the snow makes for challenging walking.

We walked to the old Catholic Church in town which suffered a roof collapse under the weight of all the snow. Looks to be a complete loss as the whole building is pretty much a pile of rubble now.









We fared a little better since ours slid off. It is fun to watch the kids climb from the snow bank up onto the roof without a ladder. I've lived here 11 years and this is the most snow I've ever seen. The old timer down the street says this is the most he's seen "since '57". I'll have to take his word on that!
