Father of two great kids who are committed to having me committed and a professional Floridiot.
Yesterday, my daughter used a handheld fishing net at the beach to actually catch a pufferfish. I've never seen anyone do that before. We released it a few minutes later.

Unexpected obstacle in the road on the way home today. Indrio Road, Fort Pierce, Florida. Many people don't realize that Florida is one of the largest cattle producing states in the US.

Every year, Fort Pierce runs lights on the palms by the waterfront and synchronizes them to music.

Topsail Hill Preserve State Park is full of deer who feel VERY safe.

Lunch guests at Florida's Topsail Hill Preserve State Park. There's also miles of pristine white sand beaches with few people using them.

I'm unsure what it really is, but my male brain is convinced it is the Whoopie Cushion of Destiny.

The local Aldi on the afternoon before Thanksgiving in an area of Florida visited by lots of Snowbirds. They are arriving this week. Every single heat-and-eat meal, dip, and package of lunch meat is gone. Most of the bread is gone, too.

I don't know why those other parents got so worked up at the kids' party yesterday. It's not like a four feet long alligator swam towards the kids. It was at least six feet long.

He had a rough morning protecting me from the robot vacuum as I worked from home.

Kids caught 5 hermit crabs at the beach and saw several blue crabs. We forgot our net, so the blues scurried away uncaught.

Momma wolf spider and ALL her babies came by for a visit this morning. Not whom I wanted to visit my bathroom first thing in the morning, though.

Shown in the container used to transport them back outside so they can keep eating bugs.

It's Longan Season! For the next two-and-half weeks, we'll be eating fresh dragon eyes (longans).

Two kids. Two tiny blue crabs. A successful first morning of vacation.

Just soaking black beans in homemade vegetable stock. I love the deep, purple color of the soaking liquid.
