Fun Times In Florida 2018 and Happy New Year

What have I done over the past year? As we say hello to a new year, I’m viewing photos to remind myself. In Spring we visited St. Augustine when my son’s girlfriend came to visit.

My two sons and I went down to Merritt Island to watch the SpaceX rocket launch.

We ate at our favorite local restaurants that have water views.

We went boating, fishing, and swimming along the ICW / Indian River, with a stop off at Disappearing Island to float a bit.

And of course I collected bunches of shells and took many photos of my favorite islands.

I took a few trips to Smyrna Dunes Park to get exercise and search the beaches for new seashells.

We even took the boat inland to the St. John’s River for a ride to Blue Springs.

A visit from a friend bought us a gift from the sea. He found this huge horse conch while boating.

For the first time, my boys went out shrimping and we were loaded with shrimp!

My walk in the Mosquito Lagoon where apparently there were alligators! What was I thinking????

I met some fellow walkers along the beaches and received this sand dollar gift.

So here’s to more time to walk the beaches and enjoy life – wherever you live. Thank you to my loyal and occasional readers, and

Happy New Year!
