4 MONTHS OVER.... IT'S TIME TO GO HOME

                  We had such good weather for the 2 weeks at Treasure Island, and Ayden
                   was a waterbug.  He seems to really enjoy being in the pool.  Fun to see
                   how he does next year.
                  After we finished at the Timeshare in Treasure Island we got Sheila, Ayden
                  & Darren back to the airport, we went back to the Condo and packed getting
                  ready to pull out Saturday morning heading back to Sarasota to the RV.

                                                                    

 

 

 So Saturday morning we checked out of the Condo, and headed to

Sarasota.  We did not do much Sunday & Monday Kent made an

appointment at the Honda dealership to take care of a recall on the

car.   Tuesday Cheryl & Dave came over and we drove down to

                            Sharky's restaurant and ate.  It was delicious.  I cannot remember
                            the name of the entre but Cheryl & Dave had had it before and that's
                            why they wanted to go back.

We drove on down to Caspersen Beach to look for more sharks teeth.

It was kind of windy and the waves were coming in pretty hard, plus

the beach was covered in seaweed. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Just taking a break...

 

 

We found several shark's teeth again, but this was

the biggest I found this day.  Dave had one about the

same size. 

 

We always  stop at the sign and take a picture.

Cheryl is holding a piece of coral that I found on the

beach.  It was pretty much buried, and I pulled it out

of the sand. 

 

An up close view of the coral.

 

Well so our day at Caspersen was a fun day again

with friends.  So we said our goodbyes as we are

leaving in the morning or whenever we get everything

packed in the motorhome and car.

 

 

 

I know, I know....what can I say,  we even sent

things home with Von & Jenny.  If we hadn't

we would never have gotten everything in!

You bought things to ! lol

 

So we got everything in & pulled out about 12:30.

When we left the park it was 90 degrees, and we

had the air conditioner on.  By the time we arrived

home it was 46 degrees, and we had the heat on.

Gees !

 

The first night of travel we stayed in a campground

just off I-75, so we could run the air conditioner

plugged in. 

 

 

 

Believe it or not this is a homemade Truck Camper.

I didn't get a side view, couldn't believe when it passed

us, I couldn't get my camera quick enough !  Not sure

even how he gets into it.  To each his own !

 

 

The second night we stayed here at a county park

just outside of Chattanooga.   You can see the pond

that it sets beside from I-75

 

Do you see that big yellow thing !   Seems like

we see them where ever we go.  Oh that was in

our other lifetime,  and we have moved on.  lol

 

This is about the only time we got into heavy traffic.

We kept moving so it wasn't too bad of an experience.

Kent says he thinks we were going into Nashville.

 

Snapped some pretty flowers growing from the rocks.

 

We stopped in Franklin, Tennessee at this antique mall

to take a break.

 

 

 

 

We pulled in to get fuel and saw these HUGE tires.

How would you like to buy a set of them!!

 

 

Rain, Rain go away.   In the 4 months we were

in Florida we only saw rain maybe 4 days, so to

come back to cool temps, & rain was very

unpleasant.  Shelly kept telling me we should not

leave yet, that we needed to stay to the end of the

month, which we were paid up to, but we were

ready to come home, just would have liked to have

had better weather to come home to. 

 

 

This is the monitor for the back camera on the motorhome.

And that is our car behind us.  So in this monitor

You see the car.

 

Now you don't see the car!!

 

We had stayed overnight at a rest park and when

Kent went to prepare the car, the battery was dead.

He eventually got it started, so ok we're ready to roll.

Pulling out of the rest park and Just before entering

the interstate, he slows down really fast and has a

terrified look on his face.  In a split second when he

put on his turn signal it cancels the view of the car,

and he knows that

so after the morning he was having, he thought

the car had come unhooked!  Wasn't going to tell

that but Oh why not!

 

We finally arrived at Sheila & Darrens'.  We did

lunch with them, visited a little more then headed home.

It was about 5:30 when we got home, and boy did it

FEEL GOOD!!

 

 

 

 

 

Until our next adventure
