Our first day at the beach in Florida
Well...we didn't make it to the beach til mid-afternoon on that first day, Jan. 22nd. First of all, Amy and I took a little walk because I was trying to find a nearby nature place called the Lemon Bay Conservancy and I'm looking it up on google maps right now and people have posted pictures of it, with a pond or something and suddenly I can't find the pictures anymore and when you zoom into the address it's just a building with a sign that says "lemon Bay Conservancy," which is maybe why I couldn't find it.

Final thoughts on my first day at the Fair
After the excitement at the Hobbies, Arts & Crafts building Mom and I wandered around a bit. We stopped at the Dairy building, of course, to get a picture of the butter cow. A high-diving show...
Hobbies, Arts & Crafts building, Part Two
As Mom and I worked our way through the HA &C building on Friday August 9th, I didn't stop to catalog everything quite as thoroughly. I thought this prize-winning pillow was very cute with the...
Addendum to Lost in the Woods
The good news - I read online that the bow hunting isn't going on continuously til the end of the year; there's a break from Nov. 16 - Dec. 16th. The bad news - everybody who lives near the hunting...
Lost in the Woods
I know you're sitting on the edge of your seat, anticipating the exciting conclusion to our fun at the Hobbies, Arts and Crafts building at the Il State Fair, but I have to interrupt my tale. I was...
