Over Memorial weekend, the Boy’s Mimi and Papa Strat took him to Kelly Park in Orange County, Florida. This county park has a great natural spring that flows clean for about a mile and is open to the public to float or swim down. The Boy thought the water was a little too cold for his taste, but Momma and Daddy thought it was relaxing and refreshing.
Momma and the Boy floated down the spring, running into weeds and rocks, and sharing the stream with fish completely unafraid of the human element. Momma and Mimi spent lots of time chatting and catching up. Uncle Jed kept poking Papa Strat while he was trying to rest, pouring cold water on his head and generally jabbing the metaphorical sleeping dragon in the eye.
Auntie LE practiced her swimming and Daddy scraped himself on the rocks, lost his sunglasses and burned himself. Only Aunt Livy stayed home; the spring water gives her hives. But she had a good time too, playing Sims 3 on the computer.
A good day had by all!
