Recipes for living, loving and laughing:Jo, Elliott, Cloey & Zoey's adventures

We decided to stay here one more night so we will head to the east coast of Florida on Tuesday.  Jan. 4 was Jo's birthday. We went to Dennys where jo got a free grand slam, took the dogs to the beach, where they much prefer being held than interacting with dogs and then went to our favorite buffet Crazy Buffet in Tampa where jo got their $20 buffet for free. It was another day on the dog beach. We will post some pictures of our last couple of days which are pretty much dog pics.

It's a good thing people write reviews because we almost stayed at Bulow until we found out they have fire ants. We had given them a credit card but when jo explained how sensitive she is to bugs she was given a refund. So it all worked out and as Jo says it was meant to be. We are on the beach side with very few people. Took a walk on the beach with the girls. Elliott set up their corral and it all seems OK. Friday December 20 Jo slept much better on the foam mattress we bought. We paid for two more nights since the beach is  beautiful and we have no neighbors. Luckily iron foot bar, which is part of Flagler by the Sea, sees as much business as the higher priced real estate here. After Elliott took the girls for a walk we all took a nice walk on the beach, which is made up of finely g...
