Whoa there,

The humidity abated for a day or two and we were real close to heaven here in West Central Florida!

85 n breezy was just fine for a land locked sailor of sorts.

The Ocean Conservancy's International Coastal Cleanup took place in Hudson once again. People gathered at the Hudson Boat ramp and searched the local area for garbage. Teams of volunteers were also dispatched to special areas of noticable need.





Jeff Sylvan, President of The Hudson Seafest was there volunteering and showing off Patty Woji's contribution of a full trailer of debris that took her a week to load somewhere here in Hudson.



It took a bunch of yung ins a fraction of the time to unload that thing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Jeff also came upon some hidden treasure in the parking lot of the Hudson boat ramp?? A vending sort of looking machine intended to charge the users of the ramp a fee?? The county commision is set to vote on whether or not they should spend the money on them on this Tuesday. Thats somethin ain't it? They installed it before they even voted on it. Jeff questioned a county employee about it and got "I guess we jumped the gun on that" or something real close to that. Amazing and who is going to check up on this remote thing? I guess we will learn Tuesday afternoon if we are going to get these things that are already there.

Another change that had a resident jubilous was the parking changes. You can now park a car in the trailer parking lot after 7 pm. In the past that was a ticketable offense.



And so Hudson is alive and kickin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you live by these Dog Rules you will be a happier person!
There's a lot we humans can learn from dogs. If you live your life by the same philosophy that dogs do, you will be much better off in life. In the wild animals fight for only two things, not a fancy car, not clothes or jewelry, they just fight for food and a mate. Everything else they get after that is just pure happiness.

DOG PHILOSOPHY:

1. Never pass up the opportunity to go for a joy ride.
2.  Allow the experience of fresh air and wind in your face to be pure ecstasy.
3. When loved ones come home, always run and greet them.
4. When its in your best interest always practice obedience.
5. Let others know when they've invaded your territory.
6. Take naps and always stretch before rising.
7. Run, romp and play daily.
8. Eat with gusto and enthusiasm.
9. Be loyal.
10. Never pretend to be something you are not.
11. If what you want lies buried, dig until you find it.
12. When someone is having a bad day, be silent, sit close by and nuzzle them gently.
13. Delight in the simple joys of a long walk.
14. Thrive on attention and let people touch you.
15. Avoid biting when a simple growl will do.
16. On hot days, drink lots of water and lie under a shady tree.
17. When you are happy, dance around and wag your entire body.
18. No matter how often you are criticyzed, don't buy into that guilt thing and pout. Run right back and make friends.
