Okay, my friends vacation is winding down.


I think Don and Meg went to church and Jeanne and I stayed home and watched Calvary Chapel on line. Don came back and just laid back and fell asleep and Presley was laying alongside of him. Surprised me. I am not sure if I showed Don this picture or not. I think he will be very surprised too to see this. 
We sat around a little while and I got the crew back up and loaded the car up and drove north. 
Jeanne stayed home to get some schoolwork done. 


Okay, I really think Don drove us. We got near the Vero Beach Board Walk. Got out and started walking it. Not sure I think we needed a potty break first. I walked down to the beach and just see what is happening there. 



The weather was beautiful and the water was 69 degrees. I think I would wait to go into the water. I guess I am more a Floridian than I want to believe. I have lived in Florida since 1984. Wow, that has been 42 years, the real sad part is I had to use the calculator to find out how long. My mind is not doing math as it used to. 



We started walking and I noticed Meg and Don had a faster pace than mine. So, I told them to go a head and I will be here waiting for them. 



Okay they walked it twice and ready to keep heading north. so, I took a picture of the board walk and the park right alongside of it. 
While driving, we were using the GPS. I saw a park entrance and thought this must be the park entrance. 

Oh well I guess not. So, Don asked do we want to go in? Sure, we started walking up the sidewalk and I saw a couple of ladies walking towards us and I asked. what did you think of it? They both said for the best $2,00 spent in a long time. Make sure we see the video first and then walk around. 







This is a well that the settlers dug and stay on this property for their time here. 


We did walk in and Don paid for us and walk right to the theater and sat down and watched it. I think it was like 45 minutes long or so. Came out and Don and Meg, stopped and listened to a tour guild Mike (I think) No Braid is his name. Maybe? Okay they stood there and I just walked around and took pictures and tried to list what they were listening too. 
The video was talking about fleet of ship left Europe (Spanish Galleons and one French ship) and head back to Sapin form Havana, Cuba with gold, silver and all kind of valuables. On July 24th, 1715, these ships ran into the hurricane and were destroyed the ships and all of the things dropped to the bottom of the ocean. Which was near Sebastiana and 700 lives and over 14,000,000 pesos worth a treasure went down. There is so much more to the story. 
Folks I don't to tell you everything here. You need to come on down and see this place yourself. 






These guys here, were the ones that really stayed and did find a lot of items 


You can see there was two or three ships went down right off the Fort Piece shore. 

The gentleman (Not Mike) in blue is our tour guild. Very knowledgeable of China and Japan plates, cup and bowls.  and other glass item's He use to have a antique story. He was showing Don and Meg all kinds of ways to know if they are worth anything. 
The gentleman (his name is Mike for sure) He is a treasure hunter, and he has found many things. 
Asked him and he told me yes, many things. Plus, he is still looking. 


Then the gentleman (Culver) in brown works for the Parks Department, He was very friendly too. Hey, is seems like all three of these guys hang out and look at different things and talk about them. Really was a nice time listening to the knowledge and wisdom they all had on this place and the treasures themselves. 


We got back into the car and headed a little farrier up. Pulled in and walked down to see what the crane was working on. I am not sure at all. I know at the Jetty (Fort Pierce) is trying to bring more sand ashore and fill the beaches up. Not sure here?  



We left here and started heading back home. We had a nice talk about tressures and how real it really is. 
Got back home and I think I took a shower and we headed back out to go get some dinner. 



This is the restaurant Jeanne, and I went to the day or so before don and Meg drove down here. 
ELMAS CHINGON. 

If you remember, I was talking about this place and not sure what this name really means. Don, told me that there are a few ways of reading this. 
Hard worker, there a couple of other means. I really don't want to say. 
It can a good name or a bad name.





I think they were enjoying themselves. Sometimes it's hard to figure. 
Well, we finished and headed back home. Jeanne said her goodbyes and I guess I was really tied and went to bed earlier they everyone else. 
Next morning I will share on the next blog. 
Reading my Bible, folks reading all I have lately has been a eye opener. The Minor Prophets, Hoses was written in 760-720 BC, Joel 800 BC, Amos 800 BC, Obadiah 840 BC, Jonah 793-753 BC, Micah 735 BC, Nahum 663-612 BC, Habakkuk 610-605 BC, Zephaniah 640-625 BC, Haggai 520 BC, Zechariah 520 BC, Malachi 450-430 BC. In the beginning of this area of the Bible they were talking about what will happen to Isreal, could be Babylon/ Or what is coming. 
Now is The Major Prophets, Isaih, Jeremiah, Lamentations, Ezekiel and Daniel are called Mayor, the reason is their books are a lot longer and more to their story  
All I know now is, our world is not doing well at all, Sinning is happening more than it happen during SODAM AND GOMORRAH. 
Please folks please check your heart and make sure you know Jesus Christ. 
I am not trying to scare you or push you wrongly. 
He loves us and wants all of us to trust HIM,

Cleaning up the boat, Don has been asking about going out. March 5th.





It's kind of crazy how the boat just sitting on the side of the house gets so dirty. But it only took me about an hour and half, so we are ready to go out. 



We all got up and loaded the boat. I am not sure what time we left the house. But it sure was a beautiful day.  This is March 7th. 


We left Stan Blum Boat Ramp. It on Hutchinson Island, it sure was a great day to go out. Now we are only riding out to the cannel (Jetty) and then go back into the Indian River and head North. 





This is the way we started heading north. 




It's kind of crazy how when the tide was going out. The island just appears. This pelican just found a place to laid and enjoy the sun. 


This is looking back south. The bridge is huge and going to be a great added view. 


I guess this speed boat, broke down and it was more north the last time I saw this. So maybe someone is trying to fix it up. It's kind of funny how this boat is just sitting here. There is a lot of boat here. 


Saw this kid on a wave board. Kind of neat looking. Like Back to the Future. 






We are heading back home and now we can take this off of our list and go to the next item. 
Their time here is winding down, and I keep asking what would you like to do tomorrow. 
Today, I read the Book of Jonah, while this time, I was waiting for the Space X had a launch at 8:36am. 
Sad part is I didn't see the launch at all. I guess it blasted off heading more east. 

Boy, this book God was trying to tell Jonah just do what I (God) tell him. JUST GO TO Nineveh. 
But He went the opposite way. But God did His thing, Jonah was on a ship and God cause a storm to happen and boy were the crew scared. They were calling out to their god and then they cast lots and Jonah was the one God was causing the storm for. So, they went to him and asked all kinds of questions and then they tried saving themself by throwing everything overboard. They were scared that they would die. But Jonah told them to throw him overboard and they would be saved. So, it came down to yes, we don't want to upset God anymore and threw him overboard.
The seas settled down and the storm stopped instantly. Jonah went down in the sea and God arrange for a great fish to swallow Jonah, And Jonah was inside the fish for three (3) days and three (3) nights. 
Okay I did read the whole book this morning, But I really don't want to tell you what happens. Please get your Bible out and You read The Book of Jonah. 
Folks I get so excited when I read my Bible, I just love reading it and sharing with you guys. 
Your Bible is a Personal Book for You to read, once you start reading it you will look forward to getting up and reading it each day. I know someday, I just get up and run out of the door. I feel like I missed read it. 
He Loves You Very Much.

This is Tuesday and Wednesday. Pretty much stayed around the house. Jeanne was working.



On Tuesday evening Jeanne grilled some steaks and just a relaxing evening. 


On Wednesday morning I went and helped Jeanne with something at school, then came home and asked what would you like today to do??? So, I thought maybe the Jetty would be really nice this morning. 
You can see how our beaches are so gone. The tides and the higher tides have been pulling all the sand out and destroying them. 






Still was a beautiful day. 
Got home and I went back to school and helped Jeanne get out of there and headed back home. 
As we driving home Jeanne got a phone call from Micheal. (her niece) She was telling Jeanne that Payson (daughter) won all four (4) Counties Award. The sale of her cow would be at 7pm this evening. That sounds great, we get to go to the Fair and see her and the family will be there too for support. 



This was the first cow out for Auction. Boy she was huge and heavy. I think she weighted 1300 pounds? 


This is our grandniece (Payson) You can see how she was trying very hard to pull it. 
But this cow won in all four (4) counties. Beautiful and massive too. I think 1225 pounds) 
 




Oh, I guess I have been spelling her name incorrectly. PAISYNNE.  Sorry, I am not a correct speller much. Oh, this is her brother LEIGHTON. 
This is where they kept there two cows at during the time at the fair. 
Afterwards we all just started walking around to see what kind of food there is? 


They always have different kinds of people acting as statues. 



We just stopped to rest a few minutes. Oh, this is Jeanne (wife) Don and his wife Meg. 





I saw this flag, it sure looks like our neighbor's dog Smokey. 




I think we walked the whole fair and Don was somewhat impressed on how big it was. 
I think Jeanne and I got a funnel cake, corn dog and I know there was something else. Don got curry fries. It was a great evening. I know I was very tied at the end of the day. I think Jeanne drove us home. 
Folks I have been so busy (Being, Under< Satan, Yoke) I have been trying to post our time on my blog and have been running out of time to read my Bible, POOR EXCUSE. 
I will go out and read it now. 
I love you all and please don't get sidetrack like I do pretty much everyday. 
Jesus LOVES YOU.
