Hello
Blogfans (Gina, that's a little like
Jazzfan),
Preparations for the trip are coming along swimmingly - I have my tags, epoxy, plane tickets, and visa - basics covered. I had a great time in North FL with Molly, Jerry and the Fry. North Florida is actually quite
beautiful and Hastings in particular and
Molly and Jerry have built an amazing farm there. Coming to Naples though was like going south to get out of the South - contrary to
popular belief, parts of Florida are actually very southern, as evidenced by my favorite road ever, Cracker Swamp
Road. That's right, Cracker Swamp. Molly and Jerry live on Reid Packing House Road. I'm not sure who Reid is and I've never seen a packing house around there, but I'm sure
Sirus will find it someday, as would be expected of any astute W
eimaraner.
I've actually seen lots of birds in the last
week, including some of my favorites like
sandhill cranes, wood storks, ospreys and white ibises (
ibi?). The
woodstork picture was taken on none other than - you guessed it - Cracker Swamp Road.
Woodstorks are Florida crackers at heart...
Before I sign off, I'd like to give a shout out to Heather P
Villars for rocking the sock exchange - way to hound your friends and coworkers (who have
excellent sock taste by the way) and to Molly who is riding in the Regional Championship this weekend! Elliott, I hope your recovery is going well, and also a big thanks to folks for the comments of blog-
couragement - I blog with confidence hence forth!
