Not only were we lucky enough to witness this and catch it on film, but as you can see from the following picture, the pot of gold was just on the other side of the river. Tina wanted to take the boat over and pick it up, but I thought we ought to leave it for our friends over on Merritt Island. :)
Our daughter Jessica got married at the end of April to our (now) wonderful son-in-law Adam. The ceremony was down on the river front in Melbourne and the weather cooperated nicely for the outdoor ceremony.
Towards the end of May I continued on in the battle our son-in-law Chris has helped me start which was the 2012 Drago Ranch Wars Versus Evil Armadillo's. Chris had gotten 2 when he was visiting before and I tied that number with my newly acquire weapon of mass destruction against armadillo's.
Finally, in July we had our big Drago family reunion up in Buchanan, Tennessee. Tina and I officially took zero pictures the whole time we were up there. I kept busy dragging around grand-kids, nieces, nephews and other relatives on the boat doing rafting, knee-boarding, and wake-boarding. Tina kept busy beating her son-in-laws at tennis, although there's varying reports as to the actual results of those matches. :) Regardless, we had a fantastic reunion and I at least borrowed a picture from our daughter Jennifer of most of the people who attended the reunion.
And so that's all the catching up I will do. As I'm posting this, our backyard is officially a total mess with the pool mostly dug up and the new septic system being laid. The next post will start covering the reconstruction effort.
