Little Bear's Adventures
Another Beach! Beth poses me on a lot of beaches. But this one near Flagler Beach, had stuff besides sand! I liked these funny tube-sticks! Green! And there was this super, mossy green stuff that I really liked! Coquina! Then I posed on Coquina rock, made of tiny crunchy shells... and most uncomfortable! Hiking on Sand Finally, I got to walk around a bit on the sand, beneath an arching rock. Beth got tricky and put me in a shell and tempted the surf to take me out to sea! That was just mean. If the surf didn't take me, then surely that seagull would! "That's it, Beth!" I have to get a little bold now and then. "I'm staying with you."

Caught in Moss Before we left Florida, I knew I just had to climb in a little Spanish moss. I got sort of tangled. Bugs? Beth said it wasn't a good idea to mess with Spanish moss. But I was just curious. She said there were little red bugs in there that would get in my fur. I didn't see any. She said, "We've got Spanish moss in Texas so what's was the big deal?" I just like it, that's all. I never noticed how cool the moss looks hanging down, blowing in the breeze. Sometimes you have to go on vacation to really notice things.
Tarpon Springs, Florida I've climbed a lot of things, but this was my first sponge climbing adventure! It was a little smelly, but still kind of fun. It was a little smelly, but still kind of fun. Sponge Diving Some people think Florida is all about the beaches. But what about sponge diving? If you go to Tarpon Springs you can meet some sponge divers who spend days at a time collecting these massive sponges. 1,500 Sponges? That's about how many sponges George and Bill brought in on their boat in four days. At least that was Bill's guess. Then they get to rest on a park bench and sort them. Beth asked them if that was the best part. Bill (the diver) said no. He wouldn't do this at all if he didn't get to dive. I didn't get to dive, but I got to climb. That's a pretty good adventure.
