The trip was not completely smooth, but …..

 


GGranddaughter Palmer just a little after birth, she is a smiler 

SO for now:

…but it wasn’t bad except the sun was in our eyes much of the time.  I do hate to complain about the sun since we had missed it for so long. LOL

However, I guess, for driving near 500 miles in 10-11 hour at this age ain’t bad. I didn’t even hit another car (that I know of) or wreck the RV.

WE left our back yard in NC and landed in Leesburg FL at Son Mark’s front yard.  We have reservations in Wildwood, FL in a couple days. Reservations are hard to get now. I thought that Covid scare a few years ago would cut down the traveling, but it nearly doubled. I think maybe some folks thought safer in their own trailer or RV than motels/hotels.

We are enjoying the 70s and warm weather. We like this area and are familiar here having lived within a 5 mile radius of here for a few years.

 

Sherry  and Palmy now 8 months old. Pamy is not the youngest in the family but my girl is the oldest, and they are both beautiful!

A plus was Grandson Luke and family stopped by today on their way to Canaveral and a cruise. They brought Mark’s new granddaughter, Palmer (Palmy) and he got to enjoy her. She is now 8 months and the best little thing. We went out to eat and she sat in a highchair the entire time and never whimpered once.  She smiled and looked around and enjoyed herself. That was amazing.

Thanks for stopping by. We are enjoying the break. BUT REMEMBER….

Aging is like owning a classic car. In order to keep looking good, you'll need more than a few tune-ups and a fresh coat of paint.

PS.    Just wanted to say thanks for reading this stuff.

One more: mommy holding Palmy with daddy Luke in the back ground...


I have a pic of Jenna, the smiling mama and Mark the happy grand dad but cannot find them.

Victor's comment knocked it out of the ballpark! I can't beat that, but wish you a super new week. Please stay safe and warm!

Hello y'all! Sorry you came to Florida and I missed your visit...however, I'm aware that Okeechobee is a hike, and the snowbirds add so much to the traffic, especially when plants here are growing and blooming. So, I'll send virtual hugs and wish you a wonderful Christmas! Lots of love to you and yours.
