Colorful Finds At The Gas Station

Saturday afternoon my son wanted to go vacuum out the car.  While he was hard at work I walked around the gas station to see if I could find anything of interest.  What I found was a lot of overgrown landscaping, but kind of pretty.  Happy Sunday to all!


My baby boy

This is behind the gas station.  I don't know what that big flower in the middle is, do you?

This is taking over the sidewalk...pretty colors.


I like this and I have no idea what it is.


Overgrown, but pretty.

Lake Eola Fountain

As I was leaving downtown Orlando on Wednesday, I found my self stopped at a redlight facing the beautiful Lake Eola fountain.  What happy memories it brought back.  When my son was a toddler we would walk around the lake and feed the ducks, turtles and birds.  I think it's time for another walk around the lake with my son.  Only this time, he'll be driving me there. 

My baby boy wasn't with me.  He was in school.  And I was in a hurry to another appointment or I would have taken more pics.

White Heron Knocking On My Door...Only In Florida

On Halloween I heard something by the frontdoor and my first thought was it's probably a squirrel. We have small front yards and my neighbors tree has a family of squirrels and the babies have been coming out to play.  So, I peek out the sidelight at my front door and there is this White Heron bobbing his head and eyeballing a lizard!  I wanted to scream for hubby to bring me the camera, but I didn't dare scare this beautiful bird away.  So I carefully closed the front door, walked away and then screamed. LOL!  We got the camera and as soon as I walked out my front door Whitie took off.  I started snapping!  He was just on the other side of my brickwall that's just outside my frontdoor.  He started cruising and I was following!  I'm sharing 8 pictures with all of you, but I took 35 pictures of Whitie!  Only in Florida do you have a Heron knocking at your door. LOL!

Already taking off!



Make sure you look both ways!


And he's off!


Here he had flown across the street and turned around to come back.




Always take time to smell the flowers. :)

HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE!

Hope everyone has a happy and safe Halloween!  What's everyone doing fun tonight?

I think they're singing the Monster Mash. :)

I'm scared! lol

Do you see Mickey Mouse on the door?

I had to post this pic.  I thought it was funny that there's a Christmas wreath with the Halloween decor.

This is our local produce market.  We'll be returning later to buy a pumpkin.

Fall In Florida

After seeing MadSnapper's, aka grandmother to my plants, post today it motivated me to post my Fall photos. :)

Took this while visiting Cypress Grove Park...where hubby and I were married!



This is a tree in our neighborhood.
