Lots of fun stuff coming up in Old Homosassa!

Next Saturday, the 16th we have two events!

Shrimpapalooza! The Homosassa Ukers will be in the parade. I just finished the banner. Now I need to get some costumes stitched up!

If you haven’t been to the parade yet, it is a ton of fun. Decorated golf carts, crazy costumes, and beads! It’s Mardi Gras Homosassa Style!

The second event is the “Art in the Park” at the Old Mill Museum festival grounds. We went last year. It’s a chance for local artists to display their work.

Old Homosassa Community Day is scheduled for April 6th. I have several non-profit groups lined up plus applications are starting to come in for the Art & Crafts show. The American Legion Post 166 will be at the grill with hamburgers and hotdogs along with beer! Chuck Andrews will be running the Open Mic on the stage. Of course, the Homosassa Ukers will be performing! And just added a cornhole tournament which should be a bunch of fun!

If you would like to take part in the Arts & Crafts, go out to the website and download the application. It’s only $20.

On April 13th, the Homosassa Civic Club and Citrus County will be presenting our FIRST GOLF CART DRIVE IN MOVIE! If you don’t have a golf cart, just come on over with your chairs. Rural King is providing the popcorn! I went to this movie as soon as it came out and am looking forward to seeing it again!

Went to the Luminary Art Walk last Friday. This is so much fun–especially if you live in Old Homosassa. You get to catch up with all of your neighbors!

And here’s some snaps I took. Sometimes I use my iphone and forget to upload the pictures. Here’s one from February of Cracker. He occasionally helps out at TwoPopsCafe. He’s the greeter!

After coming off of near freezing temps here in Old Homosassa, this weekend we will be back to spring time. Get out there and enjoy our outdoors. Fishing, kayaking, hiking, biking. Perfect Weather!

Have a great weekend!

Yikes! Where has this week gone? And for that matter, how about the whole year!!! It’s already March! How did that happen?

I didn’t get many snaps this week. Actually only took pics one day! But there’s three of them!

The new sidewalks!

And this photo from last week. I neglected to post it. And it’s a really cool shot. This is the canal in our back yard. Roseate Spoonbill, Little Blue Heron, and an Egret. The amazing thing about his photo is that I HAVE NEVER SEEN A ROSEATE SPOONBILL outside of the Homosassa Springs Wildlife Park! Especially not in my back yard! Escapee from the park?

We will be at the Luminary Art Night tonight. Starts at dusk. This is a great fun event. Hope I remember to take my camera and get some pics!

Have a great weekend!

Pics from the Week! Starting Backwards!

Last night we had a full house at the Homosassa Civic Club for Captain William Toney’s informative seminar on fishing the Homosassa area. He spoke for over an hour and a half. I counted 124 in the audience!
