Great weather here in Florida!  Yesterday we went to the pool in the afternoon to catch some rays.  It was great!  Later in the afternoon a cold front with some rain blew in and this morning it is pretty cool.  I think it is down in the 40s, but that won't last too long.

Last night I learned how to play Hand & Foot, a card game.  It is complicated and seems to take a while to play, but I think I will enjoy it.

I have see and heard many different birds near the storage area.  And of course the alligator is still in our little pond.

I believe this is a Tri-colored Heron.  You can not see his color very good in this picture, but I could not get very close.


Little house - big backyard!!

WE ARE IN FLORIDA!!  HOORAY!!  We arrived yesterday about 11am.  Last night we went to our first Saturday night dance and this morning Larry sang in the choir.  We jumped back right back in!  Tomorrow we meet with the new activities director about my exercise class and Larry's "Grand Old Opera Show".

The weather is 80 today and about 60 at night.  They have seen a black bear in the back storage lot and advise taking in pet food and taking down bird feeders.  We have already seen a White Egret and today we will be trying to locate the owls nest.

Here we are set up at the RV Park.  The park is maybe 1/3 to 1/2 full and people coming in everyday.

We are staying a few weeks with Larry's daughter, before we head on to Florida.  His daughter and son-in-law installed full hook-up for our fifth wheel, PLUS high speed Internet and cable w/ DVR!  It is a great deal.  The weather is fair.  A few nights were down to 28 - 30, but most of the time the night are in the 40s or 50s and the days are in the 60s and 70s.

We are having a good time.  Every morning Larry walks over in his PJs and robe for breakfast and coffee with his daughter and her family before they start they day.  I sleep in and have a breakfast bar later, which works out great for both of us!.

Our grandson, Zander, is showing some interest in golf.  He has great hand eye coordination and has started our paying fairly good.  Larry is giving his tips and suggestions, but is encouraging his parents to get his golf lessons.


Here are a couple of pictures of our set up.  Larry's daughter has about 31/2 acres and the back yard goes down to a lake.

Halloween!  For all of you who have never experienced a Halloween at a campground, you would not believe it!
Campers love Halloween.  Maybe because it is the last camping weekend for most!  Here are some of the larger displays from out State Park.

Nothing to exciting this summer, so I have not been blogging often.  We are currently in SW Indiana.  We are camp hosting for an Indiana State Park.  Last weekend we meet several of my siblings and friends at another SP.  It was good weather and fall foliage was beautiful.  Below are pictures, one of the road in the campground and then our rig and truck,, both taken the morning we were moving.

Here we are at Harmonie State Park in southwest Indiana again.  We most likely will be here till we head south.  This is a beautiful park.  The deer are abundant, and when most of the campers are gone though the week, we see deer almost every day.  The weather right now is gorgeous and is expected to last for a while.  The days on in the high 70s or low 80s and the lows are in the 50s, with abundant sunshine.

Here is a picture of just on the trees at the park.  The leaves are falling!  Under this tree, when the wind blows so many leaves fall that it looks like it is snowing!  It is so cool!

My niece, Miranda, got married Sat and the family attended her reception.  My gift was a family picture frame with our old family photo. 

We are in Vincennes, IN this week. We are at a very nice small campground.  Larry and I have decided to have our family reunion here next June.  That is how much we like it.   We will heading up to Shakamac later this week.  Several for the family will be camping their with us.  In Indy it is fall break.
