Sock Monkey has been very busy.....He went to Lynchburg, TN to the Jack Daniel's distillery...too
bad he got there just as it was closing! 
Checking out a lake.......
Sock Monkey does Daytona Beach...
Playing in the sand...
Catching some rays!
"holding court" in the Old Courthouse where my Mom lives.
Life is a bed of roses for Sock Monkey...haha
Oh my! There is an alligator down there!
No problem with that!
He found some friends in the city park!
Sock Monkey likes visiting places!
Relaxing on the front porch..
Hanging around the neighborhood!
Found another new friend...
Hanging around at St. Marks....checking out the Gulf of Mexico
Sitting with a friend looking at the Gulf.
Sock Monkey goes to Panama City Beach!

Old cannon at Mammoth Springs

Birds from the Trip

Ibis?  taken in my Mom's yard.

Taken at a city pond where they live.
At St. Mark's
Panama City Beach
Mammoth Springs, Arkansas...It was later in the evening when we were there and kind of chilly...
maybe that's why they were sitting like this?

Florida Plants

The first five pictures were taken in my Mom's yard..love these berries!
I think this is the Crown of Thorns plant
Mexican Petunia
She said this is like a weed there....we did see it growing wild in several places...I thought it had
a pretty flower.
Tree in the town...note the Spanish Moss!
The rest of these were taken at the St. Mark's place.
Stay tuned for more later!

Trip Pictures

Pink Elephant in the sky....Farmington, Missouri
We found Bob's cousin somewhere along the way!
In Georgia..
Valdosta, Georgia....good to know this quick shop takes food stamps!
And while he was filling the car up, I took a picture of this in the lot next to the quick shop...I am betting 
these are two really fine establishments!
Saw this sign on our way to Daytona
Crystal River, Florida
Sing it!
We saw quite a few different types of statues like this one...oddly, this one was at a place that sold headstones....
Lighthouse at St. Marks National place...Gulf of Mexico in the background
sign at St. Mark's
In Florida...my Dad was here once.
We traveled on several roads with these signs.
Seemed like nearly every bridge in several states had these signs, or something similar.
Will be catching up some more with trip pictures....
