Family, food, and fun...
Today we are headed back to Kansas City after spending several days with family to begin 2024 in Florida. We loved soaking in some sunshine and warmer weather while relaxing and spending time together.
We had plenty of highlights that included great food, good movies, wildlife, and…our favorite, the beach. There is something pretty invigorating about feeling the sun and sand, hearing the waves, and seeing the expanse of God’s creation.
Speaking of creation, we were able to see sand cranes and seagulls, a stingray (it was dead, but we still saw it), sponges and jellyfish, and several deer, and dolphins close up in the wild. We even had a dolphin follow our boat for several minutes…which was a first-time experience for us and it was AWESOME!!!
The deer weren’t quite as extraordinary as the dolphin, but they were plenty fun to watch and also taught some lessons along the way…no, I didn’t get too close or anything crazy.
One morning was especially memorable…while Ian was in the pool, I counted 12 deer that walked right up within a few feet. They are pretty tame since they are fed corn every day, but still, it’s entertaining to see wild animals up close. As the deer approached their breakfast, there were a few that stayed back to keep an eye on things…if you had watched the golfers out there you might know why 50 20 20 20 20 Recent
