Here I am in Dunedin, FL, at my in-laws'. The boys and I are staying in a cute efficiency down by the harbor, and more relatives are pouring in from the north. It's the annual pilgrimage of the McGehees, and I'm happy to be a part of it. There's a bit of culture shock -- the car culture is not something I'm particularly fond of, and I had a difficult time in the Publix, trying to figure out what my family would want to eat, and where on earth do they keep those things in the store. In some ways, life at Twin Oaks is much more simple, and going away for bit reminds me why I moved to Twin Oaks in the first place.

One of my most favorite activities so far has been walking through Hammock Park, which is an enormous green acreage to the west of downtown. It was good to be outside, exploring the trails and trying to figure out the different plants. Arlo picked a handful of purple-red berries, in the hopes of finding out what they are. We'd seen a picture of them at the nature center, at Honeymoon Island State Park.

Okey dokey, more later,
much love,
Kelpie
