Cool Front in Florida?


Can't believe we have been here for almost three weeks already. Time flies when you are having fun!

The Floridians think we are having a real cold front come through, but if you are from the Midwest it is just a little cooler than normal. We did have a front come through on Tuesday and we got a little rain and clouds. But you know it isn't that bad for January. It is in the 60s in the day and high 30s and low 40s at night. It is suppose to get to the higher 60s today and a little warmer tomorrow. The clouds are pretty well gone and the sun is out.....yippee!

Let's see we went to Ft. Myers last Saturday to the flea market. It was a pretty nice one. It had a lot of stuff and was similar to the one we had in Arizona last year. Only bought a few things but will probably make it back now that we know how to find it and where things are located.

We did our usual activities this week. On Wednesday, we went to Tampa to the Florida RV show. This was one big RV show - over 1300 models to look at and hundreds of vendors and suppliers. We really enjoyed it but was tired from all the walking. Wendy and Rick (from Quail Run) went with us and that was nice to visit with them. Didn't buy much but did get us a new yard sign with our names on it.

Went out to eat with our new friends, Dave and Becky, a couple times. They watched Brandy for us while we went to Tampa and then we watched their Yorkie yesterday so they could go. This is nice to have someone close that can let Brandy out if we are gone for a while.

This morning we went to the pancake breakfast here at the park. It was nice and they had plenty of pancakes, sausage, O. J. and coffee. Tonight we are to have a dance and music - hopefully it will be good.

Complain, complain, Those people from Fla are such sissies. It is 28* and freezing fog here for the past two days, Half of my relatives are from Florida and I was born in Tampa. We always had fun taking our visiting relatives over the old switchback McKenzie pass in the Cascades Mountains when they came to visit. Those flat-landers thought it was an E ticket ride and they were going to die for sure.
