We are busily cleaning and packing for our trip to my dad's house in Tampa, FL. So I probably won't be aroung homeschoolblogger next week. But I will have SO many cool pictures when we get back!! I can't wait to share them.

On our way down Saturday, we are going to stop at Jekyll Island for lunch and a stretch break. Have any of you ever been there before? This will be our first time. Last year we stopped at St. Simon's Island on the way down.

While in Tampa, we are planning on visiting the Lowry Park Zoo and Fort Desoto. Last year we went to both of those places and had a great time. AND it just so happens there are letterboxes in Florida, too! We have mapped out the ones we want to find already. Maybe we will plant one of our boxes down there?

After we return home, we will settle down into a more regular routine. March and April are always so busy for us that we really enjoy coming back down to earth for the summer.

If you have time you need to see the manatee. They are at Big Ben Electrical Company near Tampa. I will try to find the web site. It is really cool how the manatee and the electric company are kind of partners. And another neat park is Myakka River State Park. The alligators get up close and personal and there is a walkway in the canopy that the kids and you will love. Have fun! Melanie
