Week Re-Cap

Williams Academy Museum

Hey y'all! So, last week I missed my usual Week Re-Cap so there are a ton of photos this week! First, we visited the Williams Academy Museum, Fort Myers' Black History information hub. I had never been, which is a problem. And I discovered that the museum had been open the entire time I was in the Lee County School system, so my school district also disappointed me by not taking me there through 10+ years. The museum was phenomenal. I learned things I never knew about my hometown and they were things I should have known! If you live in FM or are visiting, please take the time to see it. 

We went for a few walks/hikes and then headed to Tallahassee for a long weekend. Ate lots of good things, watched some stick-and-ball sports and just hung out together. The days are coming to an end of my time in Fort Myers so we're just trying to spend as much time together as possible. How are y'all? — xoxo darling, Hayden

The fam took a trip to Silver Springs State Park for a ride on the glass-bottomed boats.
