Days 35-38 of our voyage "Headed to the Keys". 1/16/13

Wow I can't believe I have not posted in 4 days!!! Got a call this morning from Wanda Singleton wanting to make sure we were ok as she had not seen anything on the blog!! No excuse just havin fun !!! We spent lots of time in the kayak here in the bay at Titusville a great place to enjoy the water and the Manatee up close! They follow you wherever you go !! Pics will be attached!! They tell you not to feed or water or harass the Manatee but they come up and bug you till you pay them some attention!! Ha
I bet we have rode 100 miles on our bike this week enjoying all the history of the area and the space program history is incredible but with the space program shut down a few years ago they have lost over 6500 jobs and the residue effect from that has been devastating !!! We meet Dave today the owner and operator of Dave's Hotdog for 40 years!! He will be closing Feb the 5th as the economy here has all but put him out of business!! The Hotdog and pineapple strawberry smoothies were GREAT !!!
We have now repaired every water pump on this boat so we should be able to get home without a water pump failure again !!! ha.
Leaving here 8 am tomorrow morning to again make our way north toward St. Augustine. Probably will not make it tomorrow. I will let you know tomorrow evening where we end up spending the night!!, Looking forward to hitting the waterway again. We have really enjoyed our time here with Paula and Jim and the town of Titusville!!
Lots of Love!!! Fran
Pics: famous Dave's Hotdogs!! Watching and enjoying the Manatee!! We have not seen them this plentiful any where else in Fla?.
