Winning the war with lemonade

I've lost a lot of battles with termites lately and I've learned that the natural way of dealing with them, which includes having your house treated with orange essentilal oil really doesn't work.
But this week, I WON the war! -With a tent and tear gas! LOL
As you can see I am completely over the natural route!

 It literally felt like we were evacuating for a second time. So, five people and two dogs had to move out again, this time for 2 nights and 3 days to fumigate. Ugh!

We decided to take these 'lemons and make lemonade' though and Joy found us a reasonable hotel to which would let us bring our dog! And it was on the beach!
So, POOR US!
We had to go to the beach for 3 days! LOL

The hotel really was smack dab on the beach not the kind that say they are and then you arrive and can't see the water and find out it isn't even within walking distane. LOL
 It was full of  'snowbirds' who brought their dogs and were enjoying our 80 degree Floridian February weather.
All except the girl in the room next to us who actually had a CHEETAH! I kid you not!
The young cheetah, whose name was Cheetah,
(that's original!)
 looked truly miserable as Cheetah Girl tried very unsuccessfully to get it to walk on a leash, the poor thing! And so she ended up carrying Cheetah around while looking very fierce. (the girl, not the cheetah) LOL

Our dog, has leash issue too.
Unfortunately, she takes us for walks! ; )
And you can believe she had the time of her life on this trip!



We found out that she is afraid of waves, which was hilarious to watch. And we realized that she has never seen a real cow before, so she actually thought that this statue was real and she growled like crazy. It was THE funniest thing ever! (not the sharpest knife in the drawer but she's sweet!)








So, all and all this "fumi-vacation" turned out to be pretty fun!
