I took Mom down to the ‘Glades last November.<\/p>\n
It was a new experience for her. No cellphone, no internet, no gps. No signal. It was a life-changing experience. The children couldn’t get ahold of her to share their drama short of sending the sheriff out to look for her…in the Everglades.<\/p>\n
