Day 9 - And The Trek Continues - The Florida Wilderness?

Good Day,

Another 10 miles this morning, and I am now heading in a northerly direction. The jaunt this day has taken me along from my location yesterday on FL-600 E/US-17 N/US-92 E east past Haines City. North East of Haines City, about 6 miles is my stop location on FL-600 E/US-17 N/US-92 E. The scenery is somewhat boring.

But behind the trees on the right of my Schwinn 150 is what appears to be a sand pit and quarry. On my left is a Cemex USA, Florida complex which is categorized under Concrete-Blocks and Shapes Manufacturers. I can’t see it from the road but certainly can see it from the Google Map and satellite.

My total clocked miles is now 81 miles; only 3,220 more miles to go. Weight remaining stationary and blood sugar counts maintaining 100.

Today’s episode had the ears at a bar listening in to whom from the Downstairs saw what with whom of the Upstairs and the implications of bribery and legal repercussions.

Check out the completed EssbeeCon quilt at Quilts SB.

Day 8 – Another 10 Miles – Upstairs Downstairs Christmas

Good Day,

Another 10 miles clocked this morning on my trek to Seattle. Today’s 10 miles keeps me going east toward Haines City on my way to my next Interlachen (aka Interlake) address. I wonder when my Schwinn 150 will finally have me heading north.

I’ve reached the Sweetwater Golf and Tennis Club Community just northeast of Lake Henry. My current position on the map, FL-600 E/US-92 E and Sweetwater Club Blvd. Can’t go in. The Google Map avatar cannot be dragged into the community. Guess there are some places that are not accessible by Google Maps.

I have now clocked 2.15% of my overall Trek of 3,301 miles; only 3,230.00 to go.

There is something ethereal about the progressive choice of the Upstairs Downstairs episode… and I just am putting the disc into the DVD player. This morning’s episode is centered on Christmas at 165 Eaton Place. And we have the introduction of a new character.

Enjoy,

Jim
