Sea World, very generously, gave Jenny some passes for the weeks she worked there this past summer. So, she came down from school with her roommate, Emily, and their friend, Ezra. The five of us enjoyed a great day at the park. We especially recommend The Journey to Atlantis ride and A’Lure, an acrobatic show. Continue reading A Day at Sea World
Avast there, me Hearties! Jenny, her roommate, Emily, and some other Stetson shipmates had fun a-dressin’ up and a-talkin’ like pirates on International Talk Like a Pirate Day. You can make merry every September 19th, too, Matey. Continue reading International Talk Like a Pirate Day

Also, a few weeks ago, a small frog got in the house right when we were trying to pack the car and take Jenny to college. I wanted to catch … Continue reading A Side of Florida Few Know
