It had been almost 15 months since I was last in Florida, and since I found a very cheap flight, I figured it was time! What a perfect time I chose. It was soooooo nice to get into some warmer weather and away from this slushy winter here in Colorado. I couldn't have asked for better weather in FL. I broke out my flip flops and tank tops and spent some time on the farm. My mom has chickens that seem to multiply, giving her up to 33 eggs a day sometimes! We were giving away fresh eggs by the dozens to my friends whom I hadn't seen in a while. I also got to spend some time in the saddle which was nice. I've done some riding in Colorado, but not too much as the snow and mud make it slick and unsafe in some circumstances. My husband had to stay home to work and finish up another class he is taking. I know he wanted to come and everyone wished he could be there, but this class is through Stanford University and extremely intense, so he appreciated the uninterrupted time spent on classwork.
