 We are headed to D & S for Thanksgiving
We have been stuck in traffic for quite a while....
 A-ha!  Now we know why the traffic was backed up....there was
a double trailer being pulled....one with horses the other with pigs....
The guy didn't quite make the curve...the pigs went down the
embankment....some of them didn't quite make it....horses were
being unloaded from the other trailer in this picture...sad scene...
 This is what we drove in for the first 4 hours of the trip
(it was supposed to be a 2.25 hour trip, but btw the rain and
accident it took us 4.5 hours)
 The last half hour of the trip - Yahoo!
Yes!  We're here!
 The view from their back yard
 Out back
New grill to cook the prime rib on!
 
Shirl....she caught this alligator on her own!
 She does the Iron Man races, tri-athelon's, etc....
She's 56 and hopes to be still sporting her bikini when she is 66
(I think this is all accurate??!!)
 Nice camp fire!
Derek and Bob doing the "Gentlemen's Wong"
(that's another story for some of you)
 

Well, were still around, and things are going well! We were hauled out in St. Augustine on the 21st of November and will probably be here for a while getting some boat things done.
 
We went to Derek and Shelley's place here in Florida for Thanksgiving, and boy was it a Thanksgiving!  We had a great time.  We had prime rib on the grill, baked potatoes, fresh veggies, bread, you name it, we had it!  It was all delicious!  The following morning they made us a breakfast to die for, leftover prime rib! Yum! 
 
We came home the following day and started working on the boat.  Lot's of things to do again since we are pulled!  Asides from running back and forth to the grocery store and West Marine things have been pretty quiet.  We are getting ready to take a day off from work and are going to go into St. Augustine and tour the college, and probably do the train ride.  Oh, and lucky for us, they have a winery and distillery right down the road from us that we can tour, and of course savor some of their drinks!
 
I'm having a bit of a problem downloading pictures right now, but maybe, just maybe, I will work it out soon!  (It is still an issue.  Once I purchase another phone plug things will be good again!)
