12/21-22/15 Monday and Tuesday Sanford Fla.

OMG!!! 3 days till Christmas and they are telling us It will be the hottest one in like 80 years!!! Me I can love a hot Christmas, I have no problem spending the day in shorts and sandals!!! Ha
The last 2 days have been quiet and restful (we are on vacation), and lovin the beautiful weather!
Last night we did get to witness a historic event as we watched the Falcon 9 shuttle take flight to deliver supplies and Christmas presents to the ISS AND the rocket put the shuttle into orbit and then the rocket was brought back to earth and landed safely on the ground!!! First time in history!!!! We were so excited!!! Seeing history made!! It can be used again saving millions of dollars!!!
Today Paula and Jim took us out on their 17ft maxim for a ride around Lake Monroe!!! What a great 3-4  hour adventure. Lots of bird sightings and incredible landscapes and scenery!! It was 82 degrees here and sunny skies all day. I do have some pics to share with you. We rested up this evening, Rod and Lexie did some fishing off the dock, had some dinner and a little TV for a bit. 
Just a relaxing fun day!! 
Hope all are ready for Santa!!! He's coming soon!!  Love to you all, Fran and Capn Rod

Lexie begging to go out on the dock as her Daddy is fishing out there without her!! Ha

Looks like the moon but nope, ITS THE  FALCON 9 shuttle lift off!! 

Moving to outer space!!

These are Sandhills cranes!! Humongous birds!! These were standing outside the back door of a home we went by!

These were on the edge of the water. Beautiful birds!!! They are about 4 ft tall!!!

I big red shouldered hawk watched us pass by! We saw 9 bald eagles today but I could not get one on camera!! 

Can you see the great blue heron sitting on the nest?

We had a good laugh seeing this patriotic houseboat docked up the river!!! Hehe

Some one made a Santa sandman on the river bank!! Hehe 

Never gets tired of fishing!!!  Him or her!! Ha  She stares continually at the fishing float. 

WOOWHOO!!! Caught one!!! Actually he caught several!! Lucky fish no frying pan ready so he got to go back!! Ha
