A once in a decade event happened this spring in Tallahassee- the Legislature adjourned in March and the government relations world gets to actually enjoy Springtime in Tally! We started our "early down time" with a trip to South Florida. First stop Okeechobee to visit my parents and the Okeechobee County Fair and then over to LaBelle for Jim's Dad's Surprise 65th Birthday party. While our parents live relatively close to each other- trying to visit them both on one weekend makes for a REALLY LONG AND TIRING WEEKEND. Just sayin :-)
I was very sad to learn that Polly couldn't go to the fair- apparently there is a no dog rule, even if we had health papers. So no pictures of Polly playing with the cows at the fair- but they did have an awesome petting zoo. After a brief night and day in Okeechobee we headed to LaBelle where we had to figure out how to surprise Joe.
That wasn't as easy as you might suspect- or perhaps it is exactly what you suspected. But thanks to my smooth talking husband and his nameless cohort (swear it wasn't me) - we were able to pull it off. There were so many pictures from that event that I am going to put them in another post in a slide show....
Overall the weekend was a nice little get away from Tallahassee, the pollen that is attacking my sinuses and the laundry that I have refused to do for three weeks now :-)
