A Sunday in January

Just wanted to add a TV alert...... As you know, if you watch the news, campaigning is alive and well in Florida. To that end, both Mitt and Newt are making appearances here. Newt was met by "thousands" in the parking lot next to Barnes and Noble yesterday....that is where he is quoted as calling Romney a 'liberal. Tonight, Mitt gets the coveted Lake Sumter Square Pavilion for his speech and I'm sure the paper will declare that "millions were in attendance " . The Developer is a prime contributor to the Republican party so we are graced with all the big wigs. The Bush's made several visits. The paper is also controlled by the Developer so we are regaled with Republicanism and virtually no Democratic mention. It's OK, we keep our mouths shut and keep politics out of the conversation except with those 'like us'.... So, you might see TV on the nightly news again.

I'm enjoying my new fancy camera but it seems that I take the most bloggable photos with the iPhone because it's always with me. I need to change that and think about using the big one out and about. I'm liking a 100mm lens that Michael lent me.......In our world down here, the flowers are changed out every 3 months. Sometimes they fill a large area just with various colored coleus and it becomes a beautiful mass of color. This month, they planted the cold weather flowers.....each season brings its own color...
Yesterday, we went to be with the Fairygodmother-in-training...or FGIT (fidget) as they call themselves. We visited the salon and saw a couple of the darling little Princess' outfitted top to bottom in glittery, sparkly fun. When they aren't busy, the FGIT's go about the area with their wands, dispelling Pixie Dust on the crowds. Later, we stopped at Portobello, an Italian restaurant at Downtown Disney......great food and people watching spot. Then a stroll around the lake and a picture of the dragon made entirely of Legos............

Downtown Disney is a fun place for a few hours but we need to get back to the Park before the March crowds take over.
