Well, our rather chilly Florida vacation is nearing and end! Gail and Bill left on Saturday to go back to their home further north in Florida. Our kitties took a particular liking to Gail as can be seen by by this picture of her and George who is merrily purring in her lap. I think her comment when she picked him up was "he's a BIG boy"! It's hard to have enough lap for George! Chainers couldn't have cared less when she came up to pet him and usually he runs at the first sign of someone other than Warren and I. We figure she must smell like family to a cat!
My last walk on the beach yesterday and I saw the sea gulls with this Spiny Lobster who still was a little bit alive. He was about 9 inches long.
This is a Black Bellied Plover with his winter plummage which isn't as striking as his summer feathers but still a nice looking bird!! I had seen these last year when I was here.
He found dinner!Well at least our weather here though cold was nowhere near as bad as further north or even California these last few days. We had sunshine most days and it was great for taking long walks in the wildlife refuges -- not so good if you wanted to swim at the beach as the water was down in the 50s -- probably a good 20 degrees cooler than usual.

Thank goodness. Finally a photo of George!
Glad you decided to look on the positive side of your colder weather. Guess it won't be as much of an adjustment to come back up here - the forecasters are telling us it will be a white Christmas as the snow on the ground won't have time to melt.
Such an awesome blog! Love your photos and quilts too!
