Oink oink


My throat is raw and scratchy, my chest is congested and I'm coughing. You wouldn't believe the colors of the stuff constantly being blown out of my sinuses.

Is it allergies, or Swine Flu?

I didn't go to Mexico, but I might have seen some Mexicans at the airport. Do you think that counts?

Your mama

I bought my son some Mad Magazines to read on the airplane. I don't know why he thought this particular cartoon was so funny. Brat.

Wooten's Airboat tour

Have I mentioned that I went to Florida on vacation? Are you sick of me, yet? How about now? Sorry, I had to get that out of the way.

I've been dying to get to probably the most exciting part of the trip, for me - the airboat ride at Wooten's. (Probably not for the boy, I got one whole picture of him smiling the entire time, and I had to take it while he wasn't paying attention.)



If you ever get the chance to take an airboat ride, take it immediately! If I ever get the chance to drive an airboat, I'm there without a second thought. These things are amazing! There was barely any water out there, but this thing could do donuts in a mud puddle - at 60 miles per hour.

We saw some beautiful Mangrove trees and air plants, and a few birds. Like I said earlier, because the water levels were so low, there weren't a lot of critters to be seen. I'm happy to say I didn't see a single snake the whole time I was there.

I'm going to put some pictures of the flora up first, then a couple of short videos of the boat ride. I love the second video where Captain Billy talks in his thick southern accent about the poor birdies, then tries to run them over.

Here is Captain Billy:













The smallest Post Office

How cute is this? It is the Ochopee, Florida Post Office, the smallest in the United States. Of course, we had to stop for pictures!
