"Hola chicas bonita. Huh, wha..what's that? Is that a sonic boom I hear
as two biofueled fembots blast out of So Flo blazin' a wild and wicked
trail to the BIG T? Wowy wow wa Borat, not even Thelma and Louis can
keep up with these baby lovers.. Look out Texas. You ain't seen nut'n
'till you seen the S&E Express. YEEEEHAW!"
Thank you Chad Courtright.
It's true... we left Orlando and are now warmly embraced by DeFuniak ("as in a few people" -local resident and eaves dropper) Springs, Florida. We rolled into the Super 8 parking lot and opted to check out the town before getting sucked into the life we lead behind our computers. Every turn we made revealed more and more protected, historic buildings pulled straight out of the early 1900's. We discovered the oldest continuous running library in the country as well as an adjoining garden full of native plants supported and loved by the butterflies, birds, and gentle humans. Right down the hill from the oldest library was "the 2nd largest naturally round lake in the world" according to our new friends, Keith and Maureen of Upper State New York. We met along our walk, while staring and questioning the names of nearby ducks and birds. It turns out the entire area was dedicated as a bird sanctuary. I really wish I had my knowledgable bird watching brother here to identify the species I had never seen before.
Keith and Maureen cracked me up! They are two adorable people who's conversation not only reminded me of a couple straight out of a Woody Allen movie, they've known each since the 3rd grade and walked away holding hands after our warm good-bye! They offered to have us stay in their home next time through and we gave Maureen some BabyLegs for her niece and nephew. It was difficult to say good-bye, but our stomachs were eating the internal lining, and we headed to the 2nd best restaurant in town, "Mom & Dad's Italian". The best restaurant, Bogey's, was closed for a private "murder/mystery" dinner but looked absolutely wonderful including the Bed & Breakfast of approximately 10 rooms at the Hotel DeFuniak. This really felt like a place we both decided would be fun to bring our road-trippin' loved ones in the future! I'm really embracing the Southern charm and hospitality and look forward to our drive to Baton Rouge tomorrow.
I hope all is well in wherever-you-are land. We're so excited to be back on the road after such a successful tradeshow!
