ME in POE Springs--waering my SPF50 shirt!
on the Ichetucknee...
The Ichetucknee River is a spring fed, pristine river in north central Florida. Thousands of people visit the river and springs each year. Activities include tubing, hiking, wildlife viewing, picnicking, swimming, canoeing, snorkeling and scuba cave diving. The whole 6 miles of the river average 20 feet wide, 8 feet deep and lie within the boundaries of Ichetucknee Springs State Park.
The most popular past-time on the Ichetucknee River is tubing. There are several tube renting companies located just outside the Ichetucknee Springs State Park entrance and visitors can rent large tubes and rafts for anywhere from $5 to $20 per flotation device. Tubing here is very popular among college students at the University of Florida in Gainesville since it is just a short one hour drive to the river.

Me enjoying the water ---we paddled 5.5 miles from The John Ringling bridge to Mote marine and then thru the Bird Key Canals....

LOVELY
Gene and I paddled 5.3 Miles today starting off on Anna Maria Island at Bayside Park -we went around the mangroves and up to Cortez (with a dolphin around us on the way)...then back and past the launch and the Anna Maria Island bridge and all the way around Jewfish Key-which is an Island with private homes on it. GREAT paddle---we saw the dolphin feeding going up and back for about 30 minutes and were quite close to it. Lots of pelicans and other birds including a big Osprey....there were also quite a few people in the area--some vacationers sitting on a sandbar in teh middle of the water in lawn chairs having a great time!
Blueberry/Peach Cobbler
1/2 cup butter
1 cup flour
1/2 sugar (I always use less than that; probably only a 1/4)
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 milk
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 dash of nutmeg
2 cups of peaches
2 cups of blueberries
Melt butter in dish - set aside, combine flour, sugar, baking powder and spices. Add in mild and stir until blended. Spoon batter into butter. Combine peaches and blueberries, place over batter. DO NOT STIR!
Bake @ 350 for 45 to 55 minutes.
the indoor Tropicana field is pretty nice-the big orange and tropicana sign flashes when they get a home run---not as fun as AT&T park in SF though---there the big horns blow and the giant pepsi bottle lights and the big gloves moves with a homer..however at tropicana field you can bring in your own water and sandwiches...i did get dad hot salted peanuts a beer and an ice cream though!
we got our seats from HUBSTUB---its an online site where you can buy seats from season ticket holders who aren't using them...out seats were GREAT! Right about the Minn dugout.....
Just a typical type of event here at the nutso house.
