Giving Thanks for……Fun-Work

Returning from Okeechobee late last evening…..due to heavy traffic on S. I 75 we were glad to be “Home” again.
Charlie helped Sam work two days on his storm damaged roof while
Sally and I talked and talked and talked…..enjoying their river view as well….
Sam and Sally live in a very interesting place….
It is a river side….personal aircraft community….
Owning a home on the river is a option with a hanger across the street for your personal plane…..or you can live on the airstrip with your hanger attached to your house or separately….the woods surrounding the area are totally awesome…(See pictures)
Serenity and Beauty are in abundance…..certainly it is my idea of the ’good life’…..
Taylor Creek where we have ‘The Milagro‘…..now that is another issue entirely…..
It remains storm damaged…..our view is flawed….but in the midst of it, there was a beautiful egret sitting upon a clump of lily pad in the harbor….
Charlie has worked hard on the Milagro to put her back in shape….and she is coming back to life after her storm shock….
Giving the inside teak a face lift was work but rewarding in beauty….
The out-drive that had to be repaired….and boat taken out of the water….was a major event with many hands helping in the process.
Front windshields were blown out and have now been replace with newer high-grade Plexiglas….
Milagro is ‘mechanically sound’ again ….thank God!
Preparing for celebrating our blessings during Thanksgiving tomorrow….is a family fun-feast that is much needed at this time.
May you and all those you hold dear …..enjoy thanks…giving….tomorrow!
