wow a new post!!!

ok well i guess its time i finally update this place, but i still am ahead of ken!!! well not much yet but, today was another bus rodeo for sue ans once again she won! and this time she will go to Tallahassee fl. for the state championships. i dont know if we ever gave out the results from last years state match but she came in 5th out of 55 people so she did great but not good enough to make it to the nationals in vegas so keep you fingers crossed for her this time. well we are gonna go do some bird hunting in the morning so hopefully we will have something to post about when we get back and too grill also. if not i'll just post some random pics of us and here to get up to date and hopefully keep up with this a bit more. sure wish ken would. just kidding ken but we'll be lookin. ok its sat the 6th so check back sun night or mon to see the posible hunt results.

in memory of dakota

well today we had to put down our oldest dog dakota, we had her for 12 years and she was our first togeather. i got her from the humane society for sue about a year after we moved here, i was working out of state and only comming home on the weekends so i got dakota for her to keep her company, the damn dog bonded with sue big time the first week i was gone i came home about 11 at night and she locked on to my pant leg and showed me who was now house boss! we are grateful for the time we all had together even tho it wasn't nearly enough, she got cancer and her legs we're failing her also so it was just her time, we we're with her all the way and stayed by her side just as she did for us for the last 12 years, the four of us had alot of great times togeather and will cherish her memory forever. we still have are other dog starr but dakota will allways hold a special place in our hearts.
this one was one of her favorite past times harassing the squirrels in our yard
she will be so missed, her and starr are the only children me ans sue will ever have, these two are so spoiled we dont think they even know that they are dogs. here's starr
the meaning to the expression if you love something set it free has never been truer than today because we set her free from the failing body that was imprisoning her, she is now truly free. we love you dakota.
dakota

a day at silver springs

well me and sue went to a place here called silver springs. if any of you make it down here again we are defenetly takeing you there! the place is a natural spring river with about 7 springs, and they take you on tours of the springs on 3 different boat rides and all three are glass bottom boats! this is also where the original tarzan movies and series was filmed as with the original movie creature from the black lagoon and the tv series see hunt. this guy back in the 20's bought a bunch of monkeys and had them put on a island in there for something exotic for people to come and see, but he didn't know that they could swim and by the next morning they all we're gone, well he thought he bought one type of monkey that couldnt swim but he got screwed and the ones he got could swim and so they did! theese monkeys have been in the wild since the 20's and now range from jacsonvile to tampa! the springs have about 2000 in there and the surrounding state forest, we got to see some on one of the boat tours and all of them had yungins with them well most of them did.

ok now here's some pics of the boats and the springs
ok now this next one rob should like its a prehistoric crock's bones thats on loan to them its 40 feet long and has a 6 foot jaw bone!
this next pic shows the size of another one still in the ground
now here's more from the boats the first one is a sunken boat from perl bishon i know the spelling is off but you get it! 2 pics
ok these next ones are just random pics from the boats most of the boat ones through the bottom didnt come out because of the reflection.
we bought year passes to this place so next time we go(july 4th week) we will take alot more pics and post them. and also a link to the place. well got a bunch of things planed comming up so there will be alot of posts the next month or so, day trips, our reneck patio, and just vacation things so keep lookin lots to come.
