Quoted From A Fellow Traveler:

Life is short, Break the rules, Forgive quickly, Kiss slowly, Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably, And never regret anything that made you smile. Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we're here we should dance.

I Found It, Balsam Pear, Pharmacy On A Fence

After some time on the internet I found out what the plant is and I was a bit amazed.

Check this out: Balsam Pear

What Is It??

While mowing yesterday, I came across this flower that bloomed from a vine. There were others on the vine but by the end of the day they had dried up and died.
 
You may think this is a joke but it's not. The petals look like orange peel and the red berries just seem to be attached by a sticky substance. This is really weird and no one here could identify it. Do you know what it is?

Same Stuff, Different Day

It's been a while since my last post but nothing is really going on that's worth posting.

The days are HOT and HUMID and with all the sweating I do, you'd think I would loose some weight. We take Casey out to play ball in short burst about every couple of hours.

It does cool down a bit as the sun drops down but the humidity is still pretty intense. I am getting a dark tan from mowing the grass every week, and the gators in two of the ponds like to follow me as I mow at the edge of the water. They are waiting for my to fall in!

I have also been doing some projects on the motorhome. I had a motor die on one of the windshield shades and had to replace the motor assembly. And a couple of other ten minute projects. I am always looking for something to do because I like to keep busy.

Joyce bought a waffle cone maker but this isn't going to help me drop some weight!

We get rain about every day in the form of a thunder shower but two nights ago while we were out for dinner, a storm passed through here and destroyed the awning on a 5er two sites from us plus trashed some gazebos. The strange thing was that it never even flipped our chairs or small plastic tables. Missed us altogether!

Well, time to play ball with Casey......keep cool!
