I have been computerless for the past week while pet sitting in the boonies with no car, no cable and no computer.  What have I been doing?  Riding my bike all over Fort Myers Florida. I sure am getting in shape..haha.  I am talking serious miles of  4 to 5 hours pedaling my arse everywhere..  It's all flat and my bike is great so I covered a lot of territory because of the  wide sidewalks that stretch for miles  and miles through the cow pastures and through the towns. It is amazing what you do when forced to occupy yourself aside from the norm!  I did bring art supplies, but the weather is fabulous and I cannot stay indoors.   I do have a computer now.... good thing since I am here for another week. Check this out...Here in the middle of nowhere..about a 10 minute bike ride is http://www.normanloveconfections.com    Chocolates to die for!  Plus they serve a mean cuppa coffee!  The Chocolat Fairy and the Coffee Angel were watching over me for sure .  Upon first spotting the shop, I thought it was a mirage ;}

  1. You'll need all that bicycle riding if you're close to a chocolate shop!!

    I bet it's kinda fun to be away from the computer for awhile and just to enjoy the outdoors....fresh air and sunshine and blue skies. I do miss you though!!

  4. oh Pam I'm so envious! My hubby just bought me a bike from a garage sale for $7 and I am just itching to get out and about on it. I think I need to step away from the computer myself. I'll have to google earth the area you're in. Thanks for the chocolates!

  5. Bike riding is so much fun. I am envious too. Be careful when you are out and about. Have fun sitting.

  6. Yum!
    I wish I could ride a bike, where I was growing up there was someone snatching kids so my mom never let me, now I'm in my 40's and would feel rather foolish learning.
