Just got back from a 12-day trip to Florida, to Ramie's hometown of St. Petersburg.
Her family has a home on the Gulf of Mexico. Her grandad passed about 10 years ago, but still wanted the family to use it. The home was built in the 60's and is a trip into the past. It still has the wallpaper, turquoise stove and oven, purple bathrooms and kids rooms still decorated with their stuff. You can see bits and pieces in the pictures. Lol

Storm is brewing
Wickie Wachee wading pool.
This is one of the many Spring Water Parks they have where the water is a nice 72 degrees instead of like bath water in the ocean. I loved it. So, refreshing. I didn't get any pictures of the spring itself.
Anna was the little water baby.
Little miss daredevil and the boys coming down the slide normally.
Anna, Connor and Grandma
We went to see the Little Mermaid show at Wickie Wachee, with real mermaids and of course Anna saw this Mermaid dress and had to have it. Justin picked a shark and Connor an alligator.
On a Dolphin crusie. If you look closely, you will see a dolphin behind the wake on the other boat.

Brad caught a small baby shark. He released it back to the ocean but was so excited to catch it.

Visiting with blogging friends is so much fun.
She took me to this cute cafe, called 2D cafe in downtown St. Pete.
I know this was a very long post, but hope you enjoyed pictures from our trip.
Felt so good to be back in the PNW where it is cooler in the morning and evening. Or course today it is supposed to get to 97. UGH.
Thanks for stopping by.
