It sure has been nice here in Florida so far. Great weather and great friends. Hell I even won some money playing Bingo the other day. We got our Christmas tree all set up and are ready for Santa and so is Bristol. Today we took a road trip to Fort Island State Beach. It is on the Gulf Coast by Cristal River. It is a nice place with a pier you can walk out on and look at the fish in the water. I saw a Blue Crab (they are smaller than I thought ) Also saw a Puffer Fish and a Needle Fish. Out on the beach there are  a ton of Fiddler Crabs that run and go in there holes when you get close and then come out again when you move away. Kind of fun to mess with them. It was a great bike ride of about 100 miles.
The other day we went to a Flea Market and it was the biggest one we have ever seen. I don't think any one could walk the whole thing but for a Monday there were hundreds of people trying to do it. Guess no one works around here.
We will be leaving here on Tuesday and heading to Orlando area for two weeks. We will be meeting up with friends there that we have been with on the West Coast. Sure will be fun catching up on old times.
Oh one more thing we had a new camp visitor today it was a large Turtle. He or it was not too scared of us but did hiss at me when I picked him up. Guess you are not allowed to do that but you know me.
