florida reflections

top 10 adventures/memories of florida:

*super snark being stung by the sting ray at lover’s beach state park


*watching the sunsets in fort myers beach and the sunrises in fort pierce


*getting a flat tire in the everglades, having to unpack the whole trunk to get to the jiffy spare, and driving around on the spare for two days/camping in a stranger’s backyard (with permission) that night because we made it to the state park too late




*in key west: sleeping in our car in a grocery store parking lot, super snark cursing the whole night and rattling a wire hanger out the window at the noisy roosters, which were crowing every 10 to 15 minutes


*cockroach motel in homestead


*midnight walk at low tide on atlantic coast beach




*dog beach day: collecting shells at walton rocks beach/being covered in over 100 noseeum bites between the two of us that itched like having chicken pox for a whole week


*shady rental agreement in sarasota


*biking on the siesta key beach at night/biking in sarasota and venice


*swimming and snorkeling in the clear water springs (at juniper springs in ocala national forest and at manatee springs state park)/camping in the primitive youth group area—about 5 acres of wilderness just for us and the armadillos




armadillo video (...only about 45 seconds, but shaky!)



p.s. we are in houston, texas now!
