Florida... where all the orange juice is frozen this morning!


I really need to get back to blogging, so here's a post from Sunny Florida.

You might know... we make the decision to make a December trip south and last night there was record cold here in Orlando! Temps dipped into the teens and even with the sunshine, the wind yesterday made it feel downright chilly.

Don't feel too sorry for me, though. We are staying at a beautiful Hilton resort (thanks, Ed and Carol!) and our accommodations and the
amenities here are amazing... so it's not really an inconvenience to have to stay inside more than we'd planned. Here are a couple of shots showing our apartment.
And thanks to my "bee ladies" I have a list of indoor attractions to explore in the area.

Yesterday we had a nice day. After battling downtown Orlando traffic to get to a Radio Shack so I could replace the camera battery charger I forgot (why do I keep forgetting things?), we headed to Edgewater to see Russ' cousin's recently purchased house and spend the afternoon and early evening with them. It was really nice to see their beautiful home, catch up with their family news, and Russ and Bruce spent a couple hours going through some geneological stuff that Russ has collected and shared lots of old family stories. We had a nice dinner at McKenna's before heading back to Orlando.
