My dear husband gave me these flowers this morning for our 20th Anniversary. Where have all the years gone? Trying for at least 20 more years:)

Spending the day in St Augustine, FL 10/15

My dear husband put in a cage outside the jail. The Jail was completed in 1891. We really enjoyed our day. We learned so much history.
Scenes around the jail


The Gallows at the Old Jail

We drank some of the water from the Fountain. It didn't taste the best, also had a smell to it.


Cross that Ponce de Leon and his men put down at the Fountain of Youth
We saw this large cross off in the distance from the Fort.
This Fort is one of the oldest standing structures in North merica. Spanish built it in 1672 to protect their empire in America. So much history in there.

Double Rainbow

Last evening during one of our rains with the sun still shining, we had another double rainbow. The one is to the right of the bright one. We have had about 5 inches of rain since the 5th-Sunday.

Fall in Florida

This is the way some of our trees look in the fall in Florida, so we do have some color.
