KEEPING BUSY ***LOTS TO DO

                

              January 23

                        This week we have kept busy checking out a few parks for next year.  The
                      ones we checked were in Fort Myers.  We found 2 that we really like but
                      will have to wait & see if there is availability.  The important thing is that
                      they DO allow friends & family but the bad part is they rent the spaces, but
                      the spaces are also for sale, so if you get to rent one, it may not be available
                       the next year, so if we are lucky enough to get a space for next year, we
                       will continue to look at other parks.   We also picked up a flyer of a park
                       in Ocala, which is a new start up park, but not sure we want to go that far
                       north due to the fact we would leave the Motorhome there while we go
                       to Treasure Island for spring break.  We haven't got the gps to check the
                        distance.  I'm thinking it's 4 or 5 hours from there to Treasure Island, but
                        not sure.



                           Here is a couple of pictures of Cypress Trails in North Fort Myers.



                     
                

                                                                                   

                So we'll see but we're still going to look around.

                         I haven't mentioned it on the blog but I got a bicycle at Camper World.
                   This is a new model that they started carrying.   The bar is lower and I can
                   get my leg over easier.  Now no comments about the tall seat!  The bike
                    folds and that's what we were after.  It works for me. 
        

 

     

                                    Now what didn't work for me was the skinny seat.  The
                                    first ride we took we rode about 4 miles round trip.
                                     Needless to say we did not ride for a few days, and we
                                    found a bicycle shop and bought new seats for both our
                                    bikes.   Kent's seat was like mine.                                        
                                               
                                           The new seat is on the right and it is gel filled.
                                            It sure felt a lot better.   There are no paths to
                                            ride unless you transport the bikes to it, several
                                            miles away.  One of the people in the park
                                             told us where he rides without a lot of traffic.
                                               I am still wobbly.  It has been years since I rode,
                                              so give me time.                    There
                                             ought to be a law against a seat like that.**  lol
                                        

                                 Watching news the other night they told of the bridge
                                  collapse around Cincinnati.   When we came down we came
                                  right under it.   WOW !  Could have been us !

                                              I got out my smore' maker out and used it the other day. 
                                             Still works pretty good  & it does taste like a smore'.   To
                                             those 2 people who scoffed at it!!   I will name no names,
                                             you know who you are.  Ha !  Just look at the look on his
                                             face,   that spells DELICIOUS !!!!


















YUM !  YUM !





YOU CAN TAKE MR. FIX-IT AWAY FROM HOME,
BUT YOU CAN'T TAKE THE FIX-IT OUT OF THE MR.
No luck this time cause they don't want you to fix it.
but he at least wanted to try.


Our Keurig QUIT.    We have used this one less than the
one at home.   After fighting with it for 3 weeks I finally
convinced him that trying to make coffee for the next 3
 months with it was going to get really OLD.  So he found
a smaller one and a new color.  No promises I guess how
long it will last.

THIS IS OUR NEW ONE

                                              It was really warm & sunny today (78) but was
                                             very windy.   It rained  some tonight and tomorrow
                                              it is going to be cooler.  So getting some much
                                              needed sun to make it look like we are FROM
                                              FLORIDA was the goal for today.

                                              We had to lay to rest our Florida snowman.

                                                  Today was NOT favorable for him.!
