Our monthly Florida State Park experience....
Last week we spent several days at Faver-Dyke State Park in Saint Augustine Florida. It's a very nice park and we enjoyed it BUT....the ticks were terrible and something else that caused some severe bits and welts...we suspect No-See-Um's, but how would we know when we couldn't see em?

Pudding, the new bird....
David and Ashley have re-homed their rescue Cockatiel "Pudding" to us so we can give her more time. She is an amazing bird! Louie, our Ring Neck Parrot, is interested in her, and the pup Buddy and cats Gwennie and Ginger are withholding their opinions :). Video shot on day 1 of his re-homing.

Gilcrest Blue Springs State Park
We just got in Thursday from a four night stay at Gilcrest Blue Springs State Park in High Springs, FL. Had a real nice time with good friends Mel and Dotti, Ken and Linda and John and Loretta. Snaps and video clip here: https://photos.app.goo.gl/oULyf24g9tBtGzas5

Pat and friends....
Our friend Pat Novotny got back to town from her world travels with her friends Micheline & Daniel, who hail from Quebec. He is a current maple syrup maker who used to run a dairy farm...fascinating people! The snaps below are from a lunch we had at New York, New York on the Indian River here in Titusville. Top photo, L to R: Alice, Mel, Pat, Dotti, Micheline & Daniel.

Dependence on technology...
So, it's looking like a reasonably normal morning. It had rained hard during the night, the hound wanted to go out but barely (does not like rain), and I'd sat down in front of my Chromebook to look at my email, Facebook and hometown news with my first cup of coffee. I rec'd an Error to Load message, so started going thru the steps to see what was going on. My notebook, i-pad and i-phone all said I was connected with a strong signal but....no joy or connectivity :(. I talked to Google Home and she gave me a prerecorded message on internet problems...but by this time I'm so stressed out (have NOT had that cup of coffee yet!) I kind of tuned her out. What is odd is that the smart TV was working and it's Roku too....
Long story short, I went upstairs and re-booted the router and modem and...voila!, all is well in Titusville land. But it was a quick early morning reminder of how much I rely on this wonderful (when it works) technology...and how stressful it gets when it goes away. It's too easy to take it all for granted.
