Ahh sunset along the Tampa Bay, we were walking dogs and watching the manatees surface and play. it was nice and mild out, the tropical birds were chearping, it all made for a lovely postcard.
I have the pleasure of being my sisters nanny on occasion while I am here so she can have some adult time. So this perticular evening, my nephew and I were putting up christmass decorations and listening to the radio, when some Led Zepplin came on, I noticed that my nephew was kinda bouncing/dancing/flailing on the couch to the music, so we rocked out to some Zepp. Oh yeh, gotta start him off right!
We got to go swimming the other day, I bailed early, got cold in the pool. But we had a "splass Battle" and of course I won....it makes me feel like a stud to win a splash battle against an 8yr old....ha ha. He just needs to learn how to hold his breath longer. Another lovly day in Florida.
Yesterday I went on a 40mi bike around the tampa bay, from my sisters house up and through center city tampa. I was suprised how well behaved the cars were. it was nice, so the ride wasn't too bad dispite being 2/3rds on major rd/highways.
It is strange to ride here, it is like either you are on a super busy major rd with a junkey shoulder OR a tottaly deserted rd with no cars. Also, it is REALLY FLAT, but that is to be expected. The suposedly have cross races here, I wonder if they have to make "run-ups?"

One of my best friends lives in Tampa. *sigh* I've had some good times down there...and am only totally jealous of the sunshine and warmth that you've got. But it's fun reading about your experiences, even if they cause pangs of longing for long, warm, dry runs. :-)
