Our First Adventure by Tricia

I have to make this short as I am almost out of time on the library computer here in Hernando County, Florida. We have had a great first week on the road and I look forward to adding more to this story when I get more computer time. Thanks to everyone for their support with the sale and we will have to have another in a couple of weeks because we still have many items remaining. We did PAY for the wonderful truck in cash and it did great on the 10 hour trip here.

All is well and we all feel happy and grateful for God allowing us to see our dream become reality.
The kids have learned about Manatees and other wildlife here in Florida. We are going to be visiting a battlefield from the Seminole War today. We have visited a sugar mill plantation ruin and the archeological dig and area from indigenous peoples from more than 1600 years ago. Where there are temple mounds and burial mounds. We have seen two beautiful Florida gulf coast sunsets, swam in brackish water (brackish is also a new vocabulary word) and enjoyed every minute of it. John has had a couple of set backs on the job but should be finished tonight and back on the road to Tennessee in the morning.

I have been given the gift of 10 extra minutes on the computer so I added a few of our adventures. I will add links and other information upon our return. Looking forward to some
mobile technology in some ways but have enjoyed the absence of it as well.
