We drove down interstate 75 yesterday with many snowbirds seeking warmer weather. We found it as we had to turn on the air conditioner as soon as we started setting up. The Fam Camp here at MacDill is huge with hundreds of big rigs in the park. There is a boat marina nearby, the smell of salt water in the air, walking along the waterfront, and activities planned for almost every night. They had a RV Christmas decoration contest so the park is certainly festive. The full hook up sites were taken so we are in the overflow with only electricity and water connections. That's just fine since the bath house is nearby and quite nice. Think we should probably just stay here until they kick us out.
After setting up yesterday afternoon we went over to Marianne and Kevin's house for a short visit with Jackson. He has grown so much and has a head full of curly hair. I am sporting a slight cold with congestion so I really did not want to get too close to him. Today is his first birthday and I am debating on whether to stay away from him today as I recover. His birthday will be celebrated with a party on Jan 1st, and I want us all to be well for the celebration.
We think it will be fun to stay in Tampa for a few months. This lifestyle is awesome - enjoy the serenity of the country and then enjoy the hub bub of the "big city." Life is Good Today.
On a sad note my mother's last sister passed away early Monday morning. Aunt Evelyn always had a quick wit and a devilish twinkle in her eye. She made the best out of everything. She spent her last years in a nursing home, and still managed to enjoy herself and find something to smile and sing about. We will miss her.
