More of the Same Lazy Sunday

This morning's horoscope: Your luck is about to change today -- which is very good news if you have been striking out left and right. And conversely, it's not such good news if life has been sweet and easy lately. There is always going to be change in your life, and you have to get used to it. Having to alter your plans is not necessarily a negative thing. Often, revised plans reap better results, in the end, than the original ones would have. Try to appreciate change.

Well, let's hope so! Plans have indeed been altered and our ducks are once again in a row, based on the supposition that the truck is finished by mid-day on Tuesday. Denny and I have just been hanging around the campground, fearful of going too far or doing too much since our luck hasn't been too good this week. Thus, pictures around the campground is the theme again this week.



This is a picture of where our fifth wheel was supposed to be parked last week if the truck hadn't gone ka-plooey on us. Backed up to the Gulf of Mexico, watching the wind and rain whip the waters into a froth and enjoying life. Yep, would have been nice.


There were warning signs of "do not feed the alligators" here at Orlando TT, but we never saw a one. The waters of Little Hancock Lake are clear and beautiful and it's a very restful spot.


The folks who buy a "vacation home" in the campground are treated to gardens planted with birds of paradise while campers get plain old grass.


I could probably look up what variety of palm tree this is, but I think "octopus palm" would be appropriate, don't you? We also discovered caladium and a couple of varieties of wandering jew growing wild in the woods at Bee's Resort.


A Gulf Fritillary butterfly. You don't know how hard it is to take a close up shot when you have a cat yanking on the leash.


One of many confrontations between Patches and the gopher tortoise.


People who travel by RV have to have a sense of humor. We also discover every possible way there is to hurt yourself on some protruding piece of equipment or slideout on the RV.


You knew there had to be a shot of a sunset, right?

I so enjoy your Lazy Sundays. Such wonderful plants to see that I otherwise never would. I love the "octopus palm" and how sweet is that birds of paradise. It is hard to envision one actually growing directly in the ground.
