Hello From Jacksonville FLA!

Williams Boat


We have two boats going out today. The Kurtz's boat which I am on taking the pictures and the Williams boat wich you see in the picture.

Little Talbot


We have arrived by water at our destination.

Tubing


Michelle, Brook and Amy get to go tubing. We are in Chuck Kurtz's boat and he is driving!

Hanging On The Beach


This is the beach at Ft. George. The Porters sure do appreciate the Williams and Kurtzs inviting us out on the boat to go to Ft. George. Its always a wonderful time.

Childhood Friend


This is my childhood friend Daniel Finn. He was my best friend from 5th grade till my Sr. year of High School. I left for college and we lost touch. We have pretty much been out of contact until now. I am so happy that we reunited! Dan stayed the night on his way back from NJ. I cant wait to meet the rest of his family.

A Picture Is Worth A Thoursand Words

ELEVEN CUBIC YARDS OF ROCK!


Yes thats what 11 cubic yards of 1.5" river rock looks like - Robert helped me. It took us 8 hours to put the weed barrier and the rock down.

Front Yard Border and Rock Project


This is how the front looks now. We did this project all around the house. I think it looks great. It was a lot of hard work. It makes mowing and edging a snap. We layed down a weed preventing fabric so I dont have to many weeds popping up. When they do I just hit them with RoundUp. I would love to post all the pictures but

I dont want to bore you! :-)
