SNOWBIRDING POTPOURRI--

"No Shoes, No Shirt, No Problem."  That's my kind'a place!  ...Archies, across from the beach, Ft. Pierce, FL where Sue is enjoying some casual--very casual--dining with friends Mary, Dee and Dick.  We had just finished one of our regular visits to the classy, weekly arts and craft show on the waterfront in downtown Ft. Pierce and while meandering back to our wheels we stopped to watch...

...this manatee and three or four of his or her friends frolic in the city marina's boat basin.  Locals tell us gobs of lettuce often fall overboard much to the delight of this crowd of loveable sea creatures.  The one visible by the piling seemed to be savoring the warm sunlight on his or her back--which is about all you see of them other than two nostrils and a bulbous nose when they take a sniff of air or that huge, round and flat tail when they put the propulsion in gear.

Ladyfriend Sue (center) is enjoying a display at the nautical museum of the Sebastian Inlet State Park where recently we accomplished an Earthcache; one of my favorite segments of the delightful hobby of geocaching.  Please stop by Saturday and we will tell you all about that latest adventure.
