RV Blog--Life in a Box. This just ain't 'camping' any more.... Friday, December 26, 2003: Happy Holidays! I know that no one really wants to hear about the wonderful Winter weather here, so I probably shouldn't mention that we're enjoying sunshine and temps in the 70s this week. And I doubt if you want to hear about the fresh Florida strawberries, and oranges, and tomatoes and such. Which leaves us with the crowded roads and and towns that overlap, all the way from Tampa to Orlando! And WAY TO MANY people! The awning has now been up for 3 weeks. It doesn't seem to mind the 'winds' a bit! Looks like we could be moving again--down to the Swamps! We're getting quite comfy here, but the job that the guys are looking at is down around Lake Okeechobee. We're going to take a run down there and get a feel for the area. They tell us you can ride around on the palmetto bugs.....! Gators, snakes, skeeters and giant cockroaches does NOT sound promising! Gotta go see for ourselves! We came home the other day to find Santa and the Mrs. riding around in a golf cart in the Park, passing out Christmas gifts to the tenants! That was a neat touch! Christmas day was a quiet one for us. With no family around, it was certainly strange. First Christmas we've spent on our own since before Lana was born. We bought ourselves a new car stereo and installed it in the RV a week or so ago--that was our gift for this year! Sure saved on wrapping paper!!! :) So, I've packed up the Christmas decorations already, and shipped most of them off to Illinois, out of the way until I need them again! Next up is a good housecleaning and a trip to the laundry--dirty clothes are getting out of hand! And I'll have my newest photos back tomorrow! Maybe I'll get the website updated! With my slow connection speed, it may take hours--but I have all nite!!! :)And so--Happy New Year! Dinah // Friday, December 26, 2003 ______________________ Comments: Post a Comment
