The Gopher Tortoise of Florida

Here’s the big boy/girl we saw on our walk this morning. He or she let me get right up to him/her. The amusing part is there is a sign about a hundred yards away saying “Gopher Tortoise Crossing.” It was just munching away on the grass.

Saturday - Open Blog


Snow plow woke me up at 5 am. Looks like winter decided to wait until February to punish us.

Living lawn ornaments

This is how we roll in Florida. Ibis march across our ponds and lawns feeding upon the insect life. They are fearless.

Weekends are for fun stuff.

Hope you are enjoying some warmer weather. We are back in the upper 70s tomorrow. Been a bit nippy here.

Pretty, but Deceptive


Just a pretty picture from Google that I found of winter. It can be so beautiful, if only it wasn't so cold, treacherous, and too much heavy lifting. The sun is shining in Racine, and the temperature has reached 40 degrees. There is still snow on the grass, but they say we might actually get some rain. I'm ready for Spring, but I'm sure we aren't done here, yet.
