February 17, 2008 Davenport, FL





Yesterday and today we laid back. We went to dinner last night with some MOC friends at the Black Angus and it was great. What made it even better was my Disney discount at the restaurant. Today we went grocery shopping and saw the mamouth auction yard where this week they will auction off thousands of pieces of heavy construction equipment. A sign of the times with the burst of the building bubble caused all of this equipment to not be needed in Florida any more. People are coming from all over the world to bid on this equipment. We have watched this investory grow from extremely huge to mamouthly vast in the last couple of weeks. Cranes, semi tractors, heavy equipment trailers, large bull dozers, small Bobcats - it seems like it is all here. We saw a sign stating that the auction will be February 19-21. I work three days this week, monday through Wednesday. Tomorrow is an eleven hour day - Wow! I am not used to working for a living. Good thing that it is such a great place to work. We are hoping to go to the Magic Kingdom Thursday. It got to 82 degrees today but a "cold front" is supposed to start coming through tomorrow bringing the daily high to the low 70s and maybe some rain. The Space Shuttle is supposed to come home Wednesday but we will probably miss that because of work but we are aiming for a nighttime lift off next month of the next space shot.
