J flys a kite real quick before it storms
locals tell us this is more like summer weather. high of 90, real humid. drops to 74 overnight. Went for a bike ride with Bearcat. Took a nap. chatted with my flunkies on the internet. That is all.
Going for broke on the key lime pie.
Also had 2 margaritas, and a 16 oz landshark. Prices down here are out of control. But it's ending soon.

Sanibel island. Live with the Silverbacks.
The pictures mostly say it all. We got beach, we got silverbacks, we got sister with brood in tow. Just finished a mike's hard lemonade, working on a blue moon with no possibility of a random drug test on the horizon(haha). Listening to the happy babblings of the Silverbacks, going to go nap. Weather back in Minnesota is horrible. Although it could be worse. My heart goes out to you all back there grinding out time til 60 degrees. I will drink another mike's and in your honor. Then I will take a nap in your honor. Then I will try and get my sister to run a little bit in your honor. Then I will sit on the beach and stare out to sea in your honor.

A poor, dead armadillo.
A trip to Florida wouldn't be complete without some random, roadside animal death. So sad..
Gotta love those Sea cows..
These gelatinous blob like creatures have all the answers. And some crafty ideas about how to store your chardonnay as well. The local coal fired power plant exhausts heated water into a local bay where all of these gentle manatees pile up in the winter months. In the same manner that Minnesotas homeless humans and wintering pigeons hangout near the heated bus shelters and factory exhaust vents.
Sherm is having a grouper sandwich and so are we!
Taking in some of that "local flavor". Grouper sandwich and bearcat is going for some catfish. Take that Sherm!
Mr helicopter wants to watch the action up close!
Not wanting to miss the action, I race down to the end of the pier to mingle with the rest of the shoreside folks. Local Wiseman wearing cool wrap around shades and beat up baseball cap says that big boat peacocks are playing a game that is the equivalent of "scavenger hunt", where they travel to different locations at different times. The helicopter is there to get some good footage of the spectacle for some post game ego-stroking. The whole scene is pretty funny, it just occurred to me that if I had beer in me it might get even funnier. And the bar just opened...
Local upper crust puffs and struts.

JUICE likes lions. All I have is a Tiger though.
They just lie around all day. Occasionally get up and flex and strut. Someone will eventually throw a carcass in and they will devour it. Repeat ad nausea...

Here is a nice one of Mr alligator.
A well fed specimen. A couple of brazen rogues had just finished trying to start something. Alligator don't care. Alligator just smiles that sweet smile from behind the fence. Come on in, I'm just a peaceful flesh hungry reptile he seems to say....
Friendly duck. Wants some grub.
Pretty aggressive animal panhandling going on. Watch some kind of small ibis deep throat a 3-4 inch fry earlier.
Peaceful channel behind little harbor
A hotel hidden amidst a bunch of condos. A tiki bar. Average age about 56yrs. Spotty Internet. A view of the bay but the real action is back here with the fish ajumpin, birds aflyin and a huge eagle nest on the horizon
