About 18 months ago, Nancy and I bought our present home about one mile from the State Capitol Building near downtown Tallahassee. The house is on Seminole Drive on a corner lot of the Southeast corner with Mor Bihan. Mor Bihan is the name of our side street. It is a French word and I do not know what it means. Anyway - our property has frontage on this small lake maybe the size of 7 football fields. This picture was taken from our swimming pool deck area. We have been clearing out brush - so now we have a nice path to the lakefront and boating area. We plan to clear out more brush to make the whole area a nice place to walk. It will take a while but we got a good start. You would have laughed to see the three of us in a boat yesterday - George - Keith - and me. They were holding the boat steady with long poles while I was in the middle of the boat chainsawing willows in the water. It may have looked silly but it was very effiicient - even though everytime the chain saw blade hit the water - it threw up a big rooster tail. We were soaked - but happy at our progress.
It is hard to believe we are here 18 months already. It seems like yesterday we were all carrying on at my retirement dinner. Since then Nancy was recruited by FSU - Drew became a doctor - Drew and Robin got married - Robin started her fellowship at Syracuse - and in December Keith will finished his masters. And to top it all off now - Harry has reached the shore of the lake whose name he does not know.
