A Day of Leisure

After we had taken Kev-Inn and Mildred to the Gulf Coast, we.....
.... took a day off to relax and enjoy the Florida weather - and let our guests recover from the trek on the beach.  We took them.....
... on a little tour around our area.  They admired the spring blossoms on nicely groomed properties, and...
........spotted the Direct TV blimp navigating through the skies above some Orlando skyscrapers.  We also took them past all the sights that you've already seen in previous blogs....
.......... like this very patriotic storefront that lets you know you are in the USA.  We drove through.......
......... an orange grove, where there were oranges and orange blossoms on the trees, and the aroma was wonderful.  Kev-Inn...........
............. got a pic of his Mom by the orange tree (this one is small - some are much larger) and....
......... his Mom got a picture of him, while.........
......... I got this photo of the orange grove so you could see just how large some of these enterprises really are.  If you could see past the larger trees, you would see a whole bunch of tiny new ones thriving in the sandy soil.  Poppa stopped in a residential area so that.....
... Kev-Inn could get a photo of his Mom getting a photo of....
......... the hanging Spanish Moss, which has an eerie appearance from a distance........
.......... but as Kev-Inn found out when he went to get a close-up.........
........ it is actually a pale green and rather pretty when you can see the detail better.  We stopped in at JoAnne store so Mildred could get some crochet cotton for dishcloths and....
.......... finally brought them back to the villa where.........
........... we enjoyed a dinner of Chinese food outside by the pool in the balmy Florida evening!  A day of leisure????
