Mary caught my cold and I ended up with a fever blister UGH!!!! I hope she dosen’t get one also.<\/p>\n
You know you must be in the south when they are mowing grass in February:)<\/strong><\/p>\n People people and more people along with construction is going on everywhere in Central Florida. In both the jeep and the MH we ended up driving on roads that were not in the GPS, many 2 lane roads are being converted to 4 lane roads, stop lights seeming in the middle of no where yet lots of traffic on the roads. Subdivisions, condos, retail and road construction everywhere, what were large farms last year are turning into new communities this year. In one place we were told they are finishing a new house every 7 days. Another area, called the Villages are golf cart communities, they build special golf cart roads and all the houses have a separate garage door for the golf cart. Apparently all the retail parking lots are buzzing with them in warm weather. I also heard that they are working to connect Leesburg to Walt Disney World with golf cart roads.<\/p>\n 2\/26\/2020<\/p>\n Flat Island Nature preserve.<\/strong><\/p>\n We went for a walk today, Mary\u2019s app thingy Said we walked a little over a mile back this trail( it lies), I\u2019m sure it was at least 10 miles. Anyway, after walking hundreds of miles in the heat and humidity, my apologies to you all stuck in the frozen north, it\u2019s HOT and humid here today. Eeeek I even sweated today, on the walk. UCK!!! Anyway, back to the trueish story. I\u2019m sure we were transported back in time to some primordial forest and I was expecting a T-Rex to step out any second and make a snack of me. After what felt like hours and hours of walking we met this couple, they said they had be there since 1933, and they said we were safe from the T-Rex because Bigfoot moved in in 1964 and ran off all the T-Rex\u2019s. He said that Bigfoot wouldn\u2019t bother us as long as we stuck to the trails and didn\u2019t search the woods for him. As they walked away granny pulls out a cell phone and starts jabbering on it so I\u2019m not really believing they have been there all that long.<\/p>\n So, we keep walking and at the end of the trail, is this primordial looking river, who knows what kind of prehistoric creatures are living just under the calm surface. We turn around to leave and we hear\u00a0this splash off to the right, so Mary, feeling bigfoot watching her, and not feeling like taking any flack from bigfoot, picks up this stick about 2 foot long and as big around as her wrist. She stands there taping her foot while smacking her palm with the stick just daring bgfoot to step out and take her on, she was ready to beat knots on his noggin.<\/p>\n Now back to semi reality, all total except for the heat & humidity, it was a good walk of almost 3 mile and we never did see any dinosaurs or bigfoot.<\/p>\n More words and pictures below.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
