Our Last Day at Ramblers Rest Near Venice!

I can't believe we leave here tomorrow morning after spending 14 days - where does the time go?  Also, it will be March 1st.  These winter months are flying by!

Ken and I woke around 7:30 but stayed in bed watching the CBS Saturday Morning Show.  They do such a good job relating interesting stories.  We were up by 8:30, showered and made another cooked breakfast.  Ken went outside to do more preparation for tomorrow's move, such as loading the bikes, putting the carpets away, cleaning his gas grill, etc.  I did the inside prep work. 

Cindy had called and let us know that John had left his hat here last night, so we volunteered to drive to their CG to return it and then play some shuffleboard. We packed our lunch and were on our way to Harbor Lakes by 12:30.  The 4 of us sat outside at their picnic table while we ate our lunch. Then we went to the shuffleboard courts and played 2 games.  The men "creamed" us!  Cindy and I must have had a "magnet" drawing us to the 10 off.  It was ridiculous! Noela and Ernie were in their truck leaving the campground when we were going back to Cindy and John's campsite!  It was nice to talk to them again.  


I think there were magnets on our discs and the 10 Off space!
That must be the explanation of why we lost so badly!

Looking good, Cindy!  Great form!

We left there at 3:30, stopping at Wal-Mart for a few groceries before we head to Pine Island.  Wal-Mart is a good distance from that campground, so we wanted to "stock up".  We were back to Waldo by 4:30 and Ken decided to backwash the black tank ad then dumped both tanks.  I made a veggie tray with dip and put shell peanuts in a dish to take to Happy Hour at Tom and Becky's. We had invited them to our rig, but they knew we were leaving in the morning and said we should come to their site and they would have a campfire.  How nice!

We got there at 5:30 and had such a nice time.  We enjoyed the fire, but had to move under their awning when it started to "drizzle".  They will have a permanent site near our home in PA from mid April to mid Oct. so we will see them again when we return from our Western trip in July.  We will look forward to sharing life again with them and they have promised to help us learn more about geocaching.  Thank you!


This is what you call a "Healthy Happy Hour"!

Tom, Becky and their dog, Moxie!
As soon as we got back to Waldo the rain began.  They had predicted a cloudy day with some showers, but a lot of today was sunny and mild with no rain until this evening. We watched some TV and I worked on this blog.  We have had a wonderful time these last 2 weeks!

I did talk to Nancy Savage today.  We will see her and Neil back in Pine Island starting tomorrow.  We are also very excited to see Chuck and Melissa.  We haven't been with them since last fall, and we miss them!
