This Fall we're heading back out west. COVID will be in our thoughts as we plan for adventures while we stay safe! Our plans are to head first to Colorado, then zip over to Utah. Lots of hiking and biking are planned along our route.

Ruthie outruns a Gator!

This blog is all about Ruthie.... First she narrowly survives all of the hoardes of shell shoppers and shell seekers on Sanibel Island, and then while biking in the Everglades on the famous Shark Valley bike path, she almost has her bike tire (and maybe more) chomped by a HUGE alligator.  Fortunately, the gator had just filled his tummy with delectible Anhingas (look this bird up).  Did you know that alligators can run as fast as 30 MPH?!

Looks like we'll be coming back to this part of Florida.  Next time a week in Sanibel.  Lots of shells, great beaches, good food and drink places, and bike paths to take you wherever you want to go.

Chomp, Chomp

  1. Sanibel also has some wonderful restaurants and the Pelican Poop chocolates are not to be overlooked.
