What's UP 2021?

My sister Lynn, the question sister, asked what's up?  Well not much.  Per Covid I have opted to remain in Fort Pierce this season instead of sailing off to the Bahamas.  So I'm not really doing much.  But I am on the boat and busy.  

This past week I had 'crew' on board to help me sail away...  Except we didn't. We did have a great visit, but now Doug and Charles have gone back home and I'm alone again.  (thus time to post on the blog)

*Rolando, an artist in Dallas. Doug; realtor in Sheridan Wyoming. Charles does finance in Dallas.

Nature study: One thing that is part of my normal daily routine is to ride my bike around town for exercise.  (A marine employee saw me yesterday, after crew departed, and commented it was "good to see me back on my bike.")  During my bike trips I often stop to check out nature.

A warning sign at one of the many local city parks.  "dont pet gators."






Some days its cloudy and overcast so the animals dont come out...
THEN other days it's thick with wildlife.

A little over 4 feet long

The very tiny key deer


So that's what's up.          -Skip
