1 July 2026 Sanford: More Small Groupings

 


  As part of our plan to have "one on one" time with all the folks in Central Florida, we penciled in a dinner with Abbey and Blake.  The morning started out with a walk with Macy and seeing some birds.  There was a family of Fish Crows in a tree and  the young one was begging for food.  The older crow calmly fed the younger one.  Very fun!  Later we drove to the new apartment for the couple and we were met on the first floor as we could not access the elevators as visitors.  Tis was our first meeting with Blake and  we think he is a fine young man.  The apartment was very nicely decorated and soon we were talking about a thousand things all at once.  As such the pictures are few and far between.  We had a Greek restaurant picked out but they were closed even though the sign on the door said that they are open on Tuesdays.  So we went to an Italian place that Abbey has been going to her entire life.  Tasty, efficient and cozy is how I would describe the restaurant.  Blake drove us back to the apartment where we said our goodbyes.

The Spanish moss is everywhere


I mean everywhere


The deer farm down the road


Red shouldered hawk


Probably a fledgeling  and a bit new to flying


A most beautiful bird


Smooth waters


We talked, we went out to dinner, we talked some more and I did not take any pictures!   Grrrr
