Spent the morning wandering around Port Charlotte. Walked about 3 miles. I seem to the be only pedestrian here - everyone else is driving. There aren't even any sidewalks, or shade trees by the side of the road. Had a delicious breakfast at a local diner, but it's amazing how far of a walk it is to get to anything. The weather is lovely, wonderfully hot and humid.

After eating, came across a women who had pulled over and called animal control. A baby racoon was lying in the middle of the road, clearly injured. Another lady came out of a nearby house and helped move it off the street and into some shade until the animal control officer got there and took it away. It'll probably be put to sleep, but that's better then getting run over a second time.

My knee is hurting - between dancing on Simchas Torah, running for the plane, and this walk, I've really been exerting it. And my allergies and throat and athsma are bothersome, though no where near as bad as back home. And the rest of me feels wonderful.
