For those of you who know me you are saying she would never walk across that bridge. I did it. Actually thought it was the only way to the other side. There was another one smaller up the river.
This was a beautiful park in Greenville, SC. Flowers were so nice and lots of them.
Also had small waterfalls. People were just walking or reading or visiting the shopping areas around the river. A very relaxing atmosphere.

We were headed home and Dad spotted this in the sky. Sorry Lauri and Tam but we turned around and back to the Village we went. The line was short, they gave an employee discount and we couldn't help ouselves. Up we went.
We will go again when ever you are ready. It was great. There was some wind so only 11 people could go up at a time. We didn't mind the swaying at all.
The view is unbelievable. They say because of the haze we could not see as far as is possible some days.
A nice experience and we all know I am not always fond of hights. This did not bother me at all.

This is Star wars weekend at Hollwood Studios. We know nothing about Star Wars but love to see the people dressed up. Not too many adults were in costume this year but the Disney cast members were really interesting.
This was a show that involved a group of kids. The kids were having a great time. Should have taken some kids with us.
And this is Dad's new girl friend. She really liked him. Had a great time but the crowd was beginning to grow and it was getting hot so we headed home.

Two of my favorite people are going to have birthdays this week.
This young lady will be 26. So hard for me to believe. It was just the other day she was this cutie smilling for the camera. The little one behind her is John.
And here we have our other birthday.. Been a long time since that first birthday with Aunt Tammy and Mommy
24 years years old. How could so many years have passed? Grandpa and I thank you for so many good memories. Are only regret is you are both so far away we never get to see you. As everyone must know Leesha and Christopher are our birthdays for the week.

Today was our Easter. Kim and Tam cooked a ham and turkey with all the trimmings and the kids hunted for eggs.
Sami and Breann checking their haul.
Cole had a hard time finding his last egg. He finally found it and the hunt was over. A good time was had by all.

Stone Mountain had so much to do we only were able to see about half. The kids and Kim were very daring.
Sami and Cole went first. Sami made it through the third level which is quite the acomplishment. Cole went on to the forth level. Way higher than I want to be.
Breann and Kim were behind them but really moving along. Breann made it through the third level and Kim went on to the forth with Cole. The wind was really blowing but it didn't stop them.

Even though we are in FL it is still a little cool in the pool. However these kids are very brave.
Breann makes it looks warm and fun.
Sami makes it look good also. However this is the true face of the temperature of the water. They still seemed to have a good time.

It's time again for the sandhill cranes to nest. I thought I was lucky to see one but on my return walk I spotted two more. Next month we will have little cranes running around.

How could we pass up Gatorland at $9.99 an adult. The white gators were so different. Would like to have been able to take the pictures without the window but we were lucky to be able to see them.
Another white gator.
This was quite a sight. A big mouth. For some reason many of the gators had their mouths open. Not sure why.
This guy is very brave or nuts. The show was a good one and he did many things with this gator that most people would not even think of. When we left the line waiting to get in was unbelievable. Never have seen that many people at Gatorland. $9.99 a good day for little money.

I really do know how to spell "see".
Went over to Merritt Island last week and we were lucky to wee three manatees. They are such interesting creatures to watch.
I had never heard of manatees until moving to Florida.
Saw many gators on this trip. Most of them were good sized .
And ofcourse the day would not be complete without a picnic. It was beautiful weather and a good time was had.

Before he had this plain white cast he had a black boot. The white cast went on in the hospital.
Next was this pretty blue one. He said he was going to have purple next but guess what----
another black boot. Still not able to put any weight on it (probably five more weeks). However today was good news. The cyst, tumor, growth or what ever we call it was benign.
