Unfortunately, in Florida, there is a hurricane season. It lasts from June 1 to November 30, and everyone here is used to it. So used to it that Floridians do not take threats too seriously unless one speaks at least of a category 4 hurricane. Florida and Jacksonville were hit by Hurricane Matthew last year, […]
Florida
August 2017
After all these technical posts (and there are a few more to come), it’s time for me to give you some news. After a somewhat chaotic journey, I FINALLY joined my husband! Security has increased at the prison for visits and it is wasting a lot of time. Before, after the registration, the search and […]
Army shop
One of my last days in Florida I stopped by at an army shop-surplus, and I took some pictures I kept aside to share them here… and I realise I never did. No big difference with a French one, except for the “sexy” mannequin out side and the size of it (once again).
Marriage Procedure in Prison (Florida)
Since I know it’s a matter that a lot of prison girlfriends and fiancées have questions about, I thought I would make a post about the prison marriage process. Of course each prison has its own marriage process so this is only based on my own experience at my (now-) husband’s correctional institution. The kind […]
Independence Day
As stated in my previous post, my July 4th plane was canceled. It was replaced by an earlier plane the same day but my timing was already very tight, impossible for me to catch that plane … unless of course I cancel my visit with the husband and ah, well… 😉 So I was rebooked on […]
Gainesville, FL
After Marjorie Kinna Rawlings‘ house, Micanopy, son museum, and River, I made a last stop in downtown Gainesville. It was really short so I don’t have much to say about it. It was a step for me in my River pilgrimage. I stayed around the Sun Center. Gainesville is a student city but it was very quiet when I […]
Micanopy Historical Society Museum
However small Micanopy is, it has its museum. Open everyday from 1 p.m to 4 p.m, entrance is free but a $2 donation is recommended 🙂 Address : 607 NE 1st Ave Micanopy, FL 32667 The inside is just a complete bric-à-brac total, but the volunteer who was there told us the story of the seminole indians (Micanopy […]
Micanopy, FL
After visiting Marjory Kinnan Rawlings’ house in Cross Creek, we went to the Historic Business district of Micanopy. Oh my God this is the cutest town! Time just seems to have been suspended there. By the way the Huffington Post is in agreement with me. I didn’t take a lot of pictures as I left my camera in […]
