April 21

This is the second year for this bouganvelia plant. They sure are beautiful!  They are all over here in Florida. 
We left Florida Monday, drove 600 plus miles. Tuesday and Wednesday drove 766 each day. 14 hours per day. Stopped and saw Pres in Cheyenne. And got home April 19. 
We always look for the arch in St Louis. Means we are halfway home. 

Fiery Friday. The old single wide trailer is about 40 years old and is worn out. Chris bought a newer one for the help, and we need to get rid of the old. It costs quite a bit to have some one haul it off. So George dug a deep trench as long and wide as the trailer, called the Sherriff so they didn't send the fire department  out, pushed the trailer over into the hole, and burned it up!  There was quite a bit of smoke for awhile. 
Interstate closed for awhile today because of wrecks and snow. 
This was Laramie today. 
Strawberries coming in the greenhouse!

Airboat ride. Kind of tame after riding with Chris and Grandpa G in the Ranger at home!
Red tide and rip tide at the ocean, so played at the pool.

Looking for sharks teeth. Some little girls spelled the word beach in shells.
