From one kind of bird to another today

Yesterday we visited the museum filled with manmade birds and today we went looking for the kind God made.

We hard about the Great Florida Birding Trail and we decided to check it out this afternoon.

The local trail is located inside the Blue Lagoon State Park in Pensacola. The day was perfect, temperatures in the mid to high 70s and only wispy clouds in the sky.

We arrived home about 3:30 p.m. spent some time reading outside and then finished our Maguire's dinners from last night.

Church is on tap for the morning and maybe a little drive to winery in the afternoon. We leave on a 5-day cruise on Monday to Mexico. Our time in the south is drawing quickly to a close.

For several weeks we have noticed a small pooling of water each morning by the sink. We have tried to find the source of the leak without success. It usually happens over night and we notice it first thing in the morning.

Well, last night Joan noticed a pool of water before we went to bed. Again, I looked for the leak source and could not find it and then spent half the night thinking about the problem, which cost me several hours of sleep.

So as soon as Joan was awake this morning I grabbed my tools from under the trailer and went to work. I had to take apart part of the dividers under the sink and then I finally found a small drip coming off a fitting on the water pump.

Using my hand I got another half turn on the fitting and it seems to have stemmed the problem, at least for now. It may be that the fittings loosen from the vibration of the road.

Also we have had WiFi issues in the park and it seems like after 5 p.m. until about 11 p.m. we get bumped off the Internet quite frequently. No big deal, but it gets frustrating when you are trying to upload photos.
