The End of the Keys

This is my Dad and I at the smallest post office in the U.S.A. Click here to see photos of our stop in Ochopee, as we were driving across the southern tip of Florida. We finished our time in the Florida Keys, so we drove back to Marco Island. Along the way, we saw 41 alligators! They were swimming in a canal that ran along side the road we were on.

One of the best parts of our time in the Keys was getting to swim with dolphins.
It was super cool to play with the dolphins. We got to do hand shakes, dorsal rides, commands, and see them do lots and lots of tricks. Click here to see photos. To see video, click here.

Another really fun thing we did in the Keys was go snorkeling. Click here to see video from our snorkeling trips. I saw a shark, tons of minnows, and lots of cool fish.

Florida Keys


This week we have been in the Florida Keys. We have gone snorkeling, sailing, kayaking, and went down to Key West one day. Soon we are going to swim with dolphins at the dolphin research center, then go the turtle hospital. Then we will go back to Marco Island for a week, then come back home to Portland. So here are some pictures and videos of Key West and snorkeling. And here are some pictures of where we are staying in Key Largo.
Sorry I haven't had internet in a while so I haven't been able to post.
I'll have pictures and more stuff up soon. We re having a great time and hopefully we will get internet soon.

Hi from Florida! Yesterday we visited the Thomas Edison & Henry Ford Museum in Ft. Myers. You can click here to see photos.

This is a picture of me looking for shells. The beach at Marco Island has a lot of cool shells. We have also found more than 40 sand dollars so far!

Summer Vacation

When I go on my summer vacation to Florida I will be posting frequently so you can see what I'm up to!
Today is the last day of school!

Finally the year has come to an end. I'm happy, but also I'm sad because I won't see some of my good friends till next year. However it's mostly happy!

Flower Power!

Who's Behind the Wheel?


Last Friday (6/3) Drew got to leave school early and go to the D.M.V where he got his drivers permit. So when ever we go somewhere he always calls "driver" instead of "shotgun".
Its been really cool to have him driving us around (also, he is not half bad at the whole thing)!
