This past weekend, Mar20-21, we took a trip to White Springs, fl. about 100 miles East of
Tallahassee. There was a Spring festival devoted to Azaleas. It featured singing,eating,
and lots to see in The Steven Foster Park. It was most enjoyable, and the dogs were
well behaved.
It was a good diversion for Marge, who is slipping farther away very slowly. from her Alzheimers.
It get's a little more difficult to keep her occupied, but we are doing pretty well.
It would be impossible for me without my daughter's help, but of course that's
the main reason we came to Tallahassee. Also, of course, we are in a superior
retirement village, Westminster Oaks.

This is at the Suwannee . Look closely at the pole with marks. The marks are high water marks in
prior year floods, over 40 feet above the river's normal height!
