Fort Desoto

This is old Bessie safely nestled into her spot with all our toys spread out for use. We'll be here until the 5th. Also a shot of one of the lagoons off Mullet Key Bayou (the water in front of our rig where one of the photos was taken is the bayou). The local homeless person afloat by the bridge over Mullet Key Bayou in his custom camper pontoon boat neatly painted with the local sescape complete with palm trees never seems to abandon his post.

Watermen of Cedar Key

This is an unusual type of work boat. The outboard is in the front near the wheel and the back is open. Apparently it is used to dredge for oysters. The netting piled up inside is quite strong and is towed behind the boats to capture their prey:)

Beautiful downtown Cedar Key

The seaside section of Cedar Key. This area is one way street on a semi-circular pier that has most of the tourist attractions on it. Small restaurants and gifty shops and the obligatory realtor. All very weathered looking and UNHEATED. Some actually accept VISA.

Pre and Post Florida

This is contrast. Shots taken from the porch of the house in Solomon's and the dock at our RV site at Cedar Key, just west of Gainsville, in sunny but chilly Florida. They also have a cute little gulfside plaza filled with restaurants et. al. More pics later.

Some Recent A&S Progress

These are a couple of recent shots. Scenery in Strasburg is the current project. The packing plant and the tannery are in progress and an older shot of the completed logging camp at Bald Knob.

Final Feast

Well, we're finally back and we had a ball!!!! This week we had the final feast to thank the neighbors for taking care of our home while we were away. I also have gotten back to the railroad and this false front printing company is my latest attempt:)

Hmmmm.........

Well.... We're not sure where the house went but we're pretty sure we found the garage. Only in Pennsylvania!
