Everglades

We made it to the Everglades !! The Everglades is the south part of FL. Sawgrass is In the river, the river is 100 miles by 67 miles. It's a slow moving river , you don't even realize it's a river, most ppl refer to it as a swamp . This is all out in the wild. 

   The airboat ride, was cold and windy 

Shark valley, which is a park , had a 15 mile paved trail. Ppl walked it, biked it or like we did took the tram around . Smaller trails to walk on . 

2 baby gators, 

Service dog

I was reading a letter and she leaped up in my lap!!

So I put her to work ... Hands free 

A poem

   Someone shared this w me this morning and wanted to share it with all of you . 

    Until I learned to trust,

 I did not learn to pray.

And did not learn to fully trust,

 Til sorrow came my way.

Until I learned my weakness,

 His strength  I never knew;

Nor knew till I was stricken,

 That He would see me through. Whose deepest drinks of sorrow, Drinks deepest too of grace;

He sends the storm so He Himself Can be our hiding place.

    The One who plans our highest good,

 Knows well when things annoy; We would not yearn for heaven

 If earth held only joy. 

Pool pets

We aren't the only ones down here who enjoy sitting by the pool on a sunny day . 

They made it

My parents came and our friend Arturo from Mexico . Had lunch w mama Ruth and Dick, he had to take the picture . So great to have some time together . 

Batter batter swing

Sometimes we get to do fun little things. Like tag along w grandparents to baseball games! Great evening , a fun real family !! Glad they get to be my family for the year 😃. 

Come along w me

You can stroll, power walk , or run what ever you choose as I take you w me on my walk this morning . South of Miami along a bay leading to the ocean .

    By the houses,  I counted 33 pecocks & hens. 

Coming behind the library/park 

In the water there are 100s or 1,000s of crabs 

Crocodiles and turtles 

A little park leading to the bay , dock canoes and kayaks

A estate open to public & for weddings

The walking trail leading home

Thanks for joining me 😃
