Getting a little slack with the updates, just too busy . :-) Bernie got rained out on Friday with the big storms heading thru the southern states but he did manage to stay ahead of them and miss the tornados and hail and heavy rains. While he was driving south to his sweetie, I had a great morning on Friday with a quilt group at the RV park. It was quite interesting listening to them and seeing some of their work. I did get our photo albums done, the RV cleaned and us packed up for our 2 wks at Far Horizons.
Bernie landed safe and sound on Sat morning and it was so great to see him. We both had a great week but good to be back together. Headed down the 27 to St. Pete's area and back into the traffic. Dropped the RV off at the dealership to have some warranty work done and headed to the beach. It was so great to move into our spot, head to the water and have a swim and sit on the beach with a "cold one" and listen to the waves. This renews the body for the year to come. Wandered down the beach to Gulf Shores Resort and met up with some friends from home - Pete and Beth Estabrooks and Marlene and Joe Van Vulpen. Ended up spending the evening, renewing hellos with a bunch of their Florida friends (from all over the US and Canada) and having a delicious pork roast and steak dinner. Came back and opened all the windows and went to sleep listening to the surf. THis is a great place to spend a week or two right on the beach. Come and join us next year
Slept in and planned on spending part of the day on the beach but you know how plans get changed. Roy and Sharman Smith and Dianne and Ivan Devar showed up for a visit on the front deck which was great. Along came Steve and Denyse Dow, met everybody and moved into the room next to us for the night. Went for a swim and it was cool but we managed to tough it out. Next came the Estabrooks and the Van Vulpens for a cool one and some appetizers. I think we finally barbecued around 8:30. It was a great day on the beach.
