Today is March 43rd

Well, that's as good a guess as any.

Hope you are all continuing to do well in quarantine. Right now Glenn has fake tattoos all over his face like Post Malone (a rock star that I'm betting you don't know) and is lip syncing to a song on video for some ridiculous work challenge. So you know, same old same old here.

Otherwise, it's been pretty darn quiet.

Ah hell...it's like he HEARD me. He is barking at me as we speak. Sigh. 

Glenn and I did a virtual 5K walk last weekend - we actually walked - the virtual part is that everyone did it on their own. I took this pic that he submitted as proof, although we could have easily staged it.

We also have been having virtual Happy Hours with some friends...I hope we have these less frequently because they are even more annoying than in-person Happy Hours. But still - here's a pic of my friend Julie (who "micro-crimped" her hair for the occasion) and her ginormous doberman, Pops. I said this looks like an epic album cover.

Julie is making Glenn and I custom masks which gave us the rare opportunity to measure our faces - very exciting!

Today we got an order from a local farm that delivers for free! Yaaaaayyyyy!

Here is a pic from a couple weeks ago of some pelicans that were swimming off Bayshore.

Sadly, I have stopped walking along Bayshore as 1) My car battery died and I drive down to the Marina to start and 2) it's fairly crowded with walkers and bikers and not everybody is good at social distancing so I've started walking around my neighborhood instead.

I'm only posting this because my mom says she loves seeing selfies. I. Look. Amazing. (hahaha!)

There are no pelicans in the neighborhood.

We do, however, have the weird pirate ship house, where they have outfitted their pirate in a medical mask. (I feel like this is one of those picture games where you search for a bunch of random items:  find a shark, a canon, and a cask of gun powder!)

We also have little pineapples.

There are also a number of houses that have these trees - which I've determined are Magnolia Grandiflora trees - so named because they have these giant, dinner-plate sized flowers. I put my hand next to this one so you could see how big it is.

A couple of other pics from my neighborhood walks...

This is our mailbox.

You've seen our yellow hibiscus, but our neighbors have orange and pink.

Ok, so are you ready for some new sunrise pictures?!

We like dog pictures better!

Here we go!

Pelicans!

Glorious!

Oh, and we have more orchids in bloom now. Here's your orchid update:

And some more dog pics too!

So sweet!

Alright, and a few more sunrise pictures in case you didn't get enough.

That's it for now! Stay well and stay at home! Love you!

Springtime in Safety Harbor

Hi Everyone -

I felt like you all might need a little cheer today. Despite the frightening and terrible news we're being inundated with, springtime has still come to Safety Harbor, and it's really beautiful. Glenn is now riding his bike every morning, and I am taking a long walk along Bayshore. We've gotten some good photos from our jaunts outside, as well as some just from around the house.

Hopefully these pics will brighten your day or at least provide a welcome distraction.

Baby gator don't care.

Baby snake don't care either.

No one seems to know for sure what kind of snake this is. But I performed good social distancing while taking this picture. Also, he was tiny. I zoomed in on him so he looks scarier.

Here are some sunrise pics from Glenn.

Here are some puppy pics...

Say a little prayer for Deucie. He's been up and down a lot lately and we're worried for him. I mean, he's 105 in dog years.

Here's Eva happily laying in the hole she dug in the yard.

So lots of flowers are in bloom around the house. Here are a few of them...

Our hibiscus bush is probably about 7 feet tall.

Gardenia

Glenn also got another shot of a bald eagle...on the same house I had seen one before.

In some "people can be awesome" news, my friend Amy packed up her kids yesterday - she said they needed to get out of the house - and they drove over here and planted a gift in my lawn as a surprise.

She texted me this pic from her car...her girls were very excited.

I came out to the front lawn to discover this:

It's a wind spinner thingie.

I took a video of it spinning in the wind, but for some reason the video wouldn't work on here, so imagine it spinning slowly in the breeze. Its very relaxing.

Ok, so by now you are probably thinking, "This is all fine and good, but I want to see MORE of Glenn's sunrise pictures!" Well, your wish is my command...

Even ducks like to watch the sunrise.

Alright folks, that's it for now. Hope you are all well and taking this one day at a time. Love you!
