Thanks Jean, I will check it out. Blue Springs was on my list but I have heard that the mantees have already moved out. We were there several years ago and I snorkeled the spring head. It is a great park, we saw several large alligators on that trip and a good size flock of turkeys. When we were there the last time I used the entrance closest to the spring head. The next entrance down was closed due to flooding. They were teasing me to look out for Alligators and we laughed about it. When we stopped at the little store they said the alligators don't come up that far because there isn't enough for them to eat close to the spring head but they do see them sometimes when there is a lot of flooding. Then we walked down to the area at the second entrance an there sat a big old gator.
We were out at David's on Sunday afternoon. He has a wonderful garden very interesting. I picked up the little Mini Pixies that I ordered from him they sure are cute little plants. We also ran around in the Historic downtown area and really loved the old buildings. Looks like a nice area to live in.
E.F.G. Orchids was closed so we will probably be going back to that area.
