Rainy Windy night in Florida


This morning looking wet & windy, was a wet windy night , and many small hard nuts falling on our trailer out of the palms, had us wonder if some damage could happen. Looking at the outside now, not a scratch.


Casino night here last night, was well attended, Polly & I played poker all night. Polly had a huge rebuy $3 for 10,000 in play money was not hard on her pocket. I didn't take any photos, but was a fun time, many draws, made for people always winning something. Was our 2nd event here, Burgers 🍔 by the tiki hut yesterday afternoon were great, beer was free, and the yak was fun. 




Today there was Ice cream craft show, ice cream was free, and all you wanted. I had 2 scoops 😊 very good, Polly bought a few towels hand made, and of course Valentine's cookies ♥️ again we met others, and yak always good. Learned a little about Fort Myers from Rodney and Shirley.

Life in this very good RV park is great. After our ice cream we went for a drive around Cleweston, getting to know the town a little. We passed by a huge paved yard, had a fence all along, all damaged goods from the hurricane damage on the Fort Myers coastline. Again, no pics, just too much there, Polly said I should take a photo, just couldn't capture the amount I saw, unbelievable the amount of damaged RVs, cars, boats, WOW. 



All those little things in rows are cars, damaged cars. 



This screen shot of Cleweston shows the size of the HUGE storage yard to the right bottom, is about 1/4 the size of the town 😳


We are going to Fort Myers to look sometime this week, like many have before to see what the damage is, and look around the city. We were there in 2017, see what we remember from.then. 

Tomorrow the sun 🌞 comes back, our pool will be comfortable, life goes on. I like this place, very comfortable, feels tropical, warm humid, and away from the city, but close enough to get there in an hour if we want. Like Goldie locks said, not to hot, not too cold, Just Right 👍🤗

We could stay awhile here, but nope we be heading east to Daytona, then west towards Memphis, with Graceland in our sights. Then we wander slowly back towards the coast and home in May, trying to stay where it's warm as we go. It's hard to guess when to move, as it's cold away from here now, hopefully gets warmer as we plan to move. 

Today is now Monday morning, I just couldn't talk myself into finishing yesterday, was not really into it. Today no big plans, pool later, walk about the RV park for me, maybe make that frame Polly wants. Just getting light out now, 6:45am. Love first light, always love the beginning of the day, today clouds to start, with a sliver of clearing in the distance.

Will be a nice day sure, a little breezy now, that's good I think. See how it goes. The beauty of learning what another place is like, weather, people, just the feeling of another place is interesting and exciting. Lucky me, lucky us. 

We fed the fish in the pond yesterday, was fun seeing the fish clearly as the sun was 
Out and we stood in the shade so the fish wouldn't see us. 

Will do this again for sure, right out our door is the pond. 

Polly's now trying to figure out how to connect her phone to the TV, wants to watch the Grammys from last night. I give her credit, I don't have the same push to stay with it trying to get this hooked up. This is a job for grand kids LoL. 😃😂

Interesting life we lead 😳😃😂♥️
