Back in Florida

I am back in Florida this weekend to pick up my truck. Brother has been driving it all week and has announced that it is cured. I drove it last night and it seems good. Everything seems tight, but that is probably because I got used to driving his truck. It will be alright though. I will leave in a bit and head home. I am looking forward to that.

Look, my baby got a bath!

So, I went all week, being very careful with brother's truck. I was so good, making sure I didn't scratch it or anything. I even picked up some new batteries for his key fob. Yesterday morning, on my way out of town, however, I had a little disagreement with a concrete pole.


I told him. He wasn't mad. Thank goodness. Not that I thought he would be. It is after all, just a truck. But, I am still mad at myself for it. I can't seem to drive a vehicle of his for any length of time without something happening. The last time I almost got stuck in a drive through bank window and ruined some very expensive custom wheels by dragging them along the concrete. The truck was too wide to fit. I had no idea. This time, the damage will probably be less expensive. And, there is insurance.

So, as promised, here are some pictures from Pensacola beach.

KateyJ taking pictures. By this time, she was soaked. She kept going down to where the waves were. I would do the same, but I backed up quickly. She got soaked by the waves, I didn't! And she said later she couldn't understand why I was backing up...until she got wet...hehehehe.

That's my foot.

There were fisherman.

There were waves. In those waves, we saw dolphins. Very cool.

This is one of the new boardwalks and picnic areas that have been built since Ivan. Each of the pavilions has a barbecue. There was even a bathroom area. It is all very nice.

This road has become a road to nowhere. It used to go out to Fort Pickens. The road was destroyed during Ivan. It goes nowhere now.

I have a couple of pictures from the Yarn Harlot event at Knitch, last Sunday, but I will post those later. Need to get ready to get back on the road!
