I think it's October?

 Hello all - 

We haven't really done anything or gone anywhere recently (other than getting my oil changed in my car) so there hasn't been much to blog about. 

Still, we eventually round up enough pics from walks or around the house to paste something together. 

So let's see. We've done some work around the house. Glenn was finally able to mulch again, and ripped out some giant ferns in the front. It looks very nice out there even though the only people to see it are the Amazon delivery guys.





Glenn also frightened our neighbors by setting up an ACS balloon arch in our driveway, but he took it back down.


Our Key Lime Bush continues to produce far too many limes.


Inside, I opted for lemons - fake ones - putting together a new centerpiece for the dining room with a rustic dough bowl.



[We interrupt this blog to bring you an adorable picture of Eva. Please stand by.]

Hello, friends.

Let's see. What else? Well, my mom wanted to see some pics of us, so, uh, here...

Quarantine Hair

And presented with no explanation...


In weird nature news, we thought we discovered a snake on our lanai, but it turned out to be a legless lizard. This pic is stolen from the internet but looks exactly like the guy.


Unlike a snake it was very slow and Glenn had to coax it outside and into a flowerbed with a stick. It was probably about 16-inches long.

Other wildlife sightings include:

A tortoise...



A bunch of storks on the Stork Lady's roof:


And a Cooper's Hawk who didn't seem to mind us getting pretty close to him.



So pretty!

And here's the moon, over an Anhinga (kinda hard to see - black bird on a branch), over a pond.


Glenn got some dolphin pics on his bike ride. The first couple aren't too clear, but they are cool because you can see they are blowing out air from their blowholes.





Here are some other pics from that ride.

You can see Tampa's skyline in the distance.



Oh, and if this pic looks familiar, it's because this bald eagle likes to hang out on the roof of this one house.


The other evening I was walking through the dining room and noticed an orange glow coming from the windows. It's nice when we get sunsets like this right outside of our front door...




Well guys, that's about all I have for now. We'll wrap up with Glenn's nightly "puppy party" (where both dogs just lick and chew on him - gross) and then let Deuce get some sleep.



Goodnight, everyone!
