Sunshine...All Weekend!

 Friday Sonsearae drove out and we hopped in the truck and drove to Panacea to have lunch at Trident.  We've been wanting to check it out as it is run by the same people that own Backwoods Crossing in Tallahassee.  It's a farm to table restaurant, as is Trident.  More seafood based on the Trident menu.  We all enjoyed our meals and even though it's a seafood restaurant, overlooking the water, Jim and I think they're a bit pricy.  It's always good to spend time with family, don't you think?

Saturday morning started out overcast and misty, but soon the sun prevailed and it started clearing.  Once the sun was out in full force the day heated up.

Jim was out in the morning doing chores and had to come in around noon.  Meanwhile I was inside doing chores.  The list never ends!

Sunday we had a late start to our day and Jim decided it was to late/hot to work outside.  I agreed!  So we spent the day reading, gaming, eating and watching shows on Acorn.  Jim took a nap and I made a card or two.

Rain, Rain and then

More Rain! Wednesday night around 2130 we were treated to some turbulent winds.  The rig was rockin' and rollin' and then the rain started.  It had eased off around 2200 when we went to bed and I honestly didn't hear any rain during the night.  But Thursday?  It rained and rained and rained.  Bands of heavy rain kept us inside.  Thunder and lightening too.  Standing water everywhere.  Jim did have a window of opportunity to take the trash down.

When we went to bed around 2200 it was storming again.  Thunder, lightening and heavy rain.  It passed and again I didn't hear any more rain during the night.  

The system seems to have moved south and we have a weak sun trying to burst through the hazy sky

Lazy Day

        I don't think either of us went outside today. Beautiful day and it didn't rain! I didn't do laundry, had pizza for lunch but I still need to do dishes.  We both had naps.  I suppose one day we'll get caught up on sleep.

Not to long ago we saw this 'rock' in the yard.  Turns out it was a turtle!  Not sure where it came from or where it was going.  I hope the mud wasn't a heavy burden
