Strange . . . . well, different Visitors
Moody Green has come to visit a couple of evenings along with her cage carrier Larry. Most parrots and parrot-like birds I have known have been far less than friendly, Moody is an exception. She loves to be petted and never threatens to take you finger.

Yes I know, it has been a bit of time. . . .
The cabin in the woods. Denise entertaining a neighbor.
Nothing amazing to report. There is wildlife in this park. Bushnell restaurants are reliable for biscuits and gravy. We have made friends with some "different" RVers. Just sitting outside in a relatively warm climate seems ambitious enough. We did go to Tampa for the pre-Christmas restocking of the wine cellar. The store, Total Wine, is appropriately named. It is sort of a Toys-R-Us for connoisseurs of the vintner's art. As it happened it was about nine miles, which in Tampa can be a day's drive, from another fugitive from Fox River Grove, Illinois, my home town. So we visited to get a free lunch.
One drawback to this location is that the fresh seafood markets are all at least an hour's drive. On the plus side it puts an expensive temptation out of arm's reach. Bushnell is located in a somewhat lightly populated area with Tampa to the south, the gulf coast to the west, THE VILLAGES to the north, and Orlando to the east. Bushnell has all the necessities but not the specialties. Everything is a compromise.
So anyway. . .
