wednesday feb 25

greetings from lovely florida
we have had company for the past few days, actually we have been pretty busy with friends both here and away. you do get into a schedule of sorts but I do wonder about traveling back home and readjusting to a more difficult schedule. Of course I won't have to walk the dogs x4 a day and that should help

We found a nice place to let Flee and Nemo go wading, actually it is along the road before the bridge to Sanibel. There is a very short width of sand but the water is shallow enough for the corgis. Flee likes to stand in the water so it works for him. We went to Sanibel and Captiva with our vacationing friends, interesting to visit but I can't imagine anyone acutally living there with the traffic and all.

We never seem to stop purchasing stuff for this monstor. More electirc cable ( not cheap) and then these screened covers for the vents to keep bees, wasps and these mud dabs from building nests. We have had sun screens made for the front window, wheels, side window and to attach to the awning. Now we are looking at surge protectors - $300-400. This rv is like a hungry child, or perhas I should say teenager.

The youngest grandchild is 4 tomorrow. Then we have Marcu in March who will be 13. Doesn't make me feel old as i already know I am getting that way, everytime I look in the mirror and see all those lines. Well as they say- look at the alternative.

Next weekend we go to Palmetto for an agility trial and then we leave FortMyers on the 13th and head to Perry Georgia for the FMCA convention They say over 2000 bus are registered, hard to imagine. There are 115 seminars listed and some I am looking forward to attending. They have tours each day and i am planning to go to Calloway Gardens, Jim can watch the dogs that day.

While it will be nice to get home I hate leaving this weather. Next year we are here from the beginning of December and , if the house sells, we will travel next year to Alaska. Got to do this while we can.

Off to shower and then the market, already have done the morning walks. Take care all

Lindsay and the corgis and hubby

Wow, Lindsay, can you believe you are already thinking about heading back east? FMCA brings back lots of memories. My parents were #845. Oh, and by the way, could you send some of that warm air up here to melt some of this damn snow?
