Twelve hours later .. flying from Fort Meyers, Florida to Houston, Texas and finally back to Toronto. Since I love to fly.. it was great except I had a first time flight on a commercial airline that only held 57 passengers and when we landed in Toronto, we had to climb down those stairs on a truck and walk across the tarmac. Interesting.
Don, Leo and I had an interesting time on the drive down to Florida. We had made a stop in West Virgina at a look-out spot and I was asked to take some photos of a group of bikers who were touring the area. Turned out that they are from Barrie, Oro Township, Innisfil and Brampton… we had to drive all that way to meet people from our home town. Sorry, no photos from NightinGail — I used all their cameras — a variety of point-and-shoots, a pretty nice Sony and, of course, somebody had a Nikon. What can I say! I still love my Canons.
We toured the Fort Myers area and just enjoyed our time. I will leave it to Don’s blog to tell you all about his adventures with real estate agents, noisy neighbours at the hotel and having to stop because it was raining so hard that the windshield wipers couldn’t take it away quick enough. We also saw a herd of wild boars (otherwise known as pigs) run across the road this morning when Don took me to the airport. He will be back later this week after a leisurely drive home with Leo.
My friend, Shiri (and fab second-shooter) picked me up at the airport and then off to the GO to go home. After a very interesting ride on the GO bus (which I hadn’t taken before), I finally walked in the door. Whew.. glad to be back home.
More later.. I’m really tired and I have a lot to do this week… consultations, album design and Holly and Adam’s wedding on Saturday. And we are really really looking forward to being a part of their celebration in Brampton, Ontario.

Happy Tuesday and I’ll talk to you guys soon.
