We have been taking it easy the last two days. Yesterday we took a ride to the Big Pine Key Flea Market. Apparently this is what the locals do for kicks. We walked around through the various vendors and marveled at their wares.
I wound up getting a folding anchor for my kayak and a bar of insect repelling organic soap to ward off the notorious no-seeums. I tried it later in the day and it seems to work pretty good. I also have the benefit of smelling like a eucalyptus tree!
On the way back to camp we stopped at the Marathon airport to see the 1927 Ford Tri-Motor plane that is here for a week. They are giving rides for $70 a pop ($150 for a sunset flight).
Today Bev and Gary left us for Tampa to stay with Bev's sister. Then they will be going back to Michigan.
The weather has been consistently in the low to mid eighties and sunny every day. We get a lot of breeze here and this morning had a slight shower which produced a glorious double rainbow.
Hope everyone is well in the north country. We hear there is a minor heat wave going on in Michigan! The extended weather forecast for Maple City shows that the frigid temperatures of February have gone away and won't be back this winter. Halleluiah!!
