Hi Everyone -
The beautiful weather has continued this past week as Glenn did more traveling for his Making Strides Walks across the state, and I did my daily morning walks here in Safety Harbor.
First some pics from my various strolls around town...
One day I went over to Phillipe Park to walk on a cool, breezy morning. It's hard to believe I can just get up and walk along the water like this.
These are from another walk along Bayshore.

| If you look closely, you can see an Anhinga drying out his wings on the beach. |
Each day, I said good morning to a new friend.
 |
| Good morning, Mr. Alligator! |
 |
| Good morning, Mr. Stork! (It's hard to tell, but this guy is huge. And he was eating a Vlasic pickle. ;-) |
On Friday, I had my best sighting of all. I walked down the pier and on my way back, I saw a big nose pop out of the water. Turned out that a family of manatees were playing next to the pier. I saw a couple of manatee babies trying to dunk each other, and a few adults. Manatees are hard to photograph, because they only come up for a second, but...
 |
| Good morning, Missus Manatee! |
|
Meanwhile, Glenn had flown to West Palm Beach for a few days, and then drove to Orlando for his biggest Strides Walk yet. 60,000 people turned out for this event, and they shut down the streets in downtown Orlando for it.
Glenn also got these pics from Orlando.
He got back Saturday, and we went out for a nice dinner Saturday night.
Sunday morning, I took him on a walk with me - promising sightings of manatees, alligators and more. I did not disappoint. You'll note the picture quality improves when I have Glenn and his camera with me.
 |
| Good morning, Mr. Egret! |
|
 |
| Yay! My manatee friend returned. |
|
 |
| Not sure what kind of bird this is, but he could use a hair cut. |
 |
| Guess what this is? |
 |
| Ta-da! | |
 |
| A cactus patch in Florida. Who knew? |
Anyway, so that about wraps up this week of walks. I walked the dogs every day too! Oh, by the way, Mojo asked me to post her first selfie...
 |
| Hello! |
Anyway, hope you all all having a good week. We'll be back in the burgh in just a few weeks. (And how bout dem Stillers?!)
Lator, gators!
