Hello,
Monday was a warm, sunny day- a bit humid. It had rained during the night. I also had a fog horn blowing all night long !!LOL- My hotel was a 15 min. walk away from the river front.
I got up early and decided to check out the river front before my 11 a.m. check out. As I walked to the river, I saw the streets where lined with trees that had Spanish moss hanging from them. This was very pretty- even though I know the moss is bad for the trees (it kills them). There was a mix of old & new buildings in the area. The downtown area is being revitalized. Many old buildings are being gutted out and refurbished.
This reminded me a lot of Boston, with the old & new mix of buildings, cobble stone street, water ways, ferries, and small shops. The bridge that goes over the river even reminds me of "The Leonard P. Zakim Bunker Hill Bridge" back home- I think the same guy designed both!! LOL
After spending the morning browsing I was once again in the car and head south to FLA. I arrived in Hudson, FLA around 5:30 p.m. Hudson is where my Uncle Danny & Aunt Judy live. I will stay with them for a couple of weeks and check out the area. I also have two cousins who live close by- will be visiting with them also.
Well, next I have pictures of my trip to a wildlife center that is located near by....so I'll be going now so I can get those pictures together! Take care- Love Donna
