Here we are now, settled in a little, still more to do to get really nested, but comfortable now.Visited the Tiki hut a couple times,
The pool I've been in 3 times already, love the cool when it's warm, and the least bit of effort in the Sun here leads to me wanting the pool. Polly did the laundry that Friday, while I visited with and met others at the pool, learning that the trip to the flea market was on Saturday at 9:30 leave time. And the fire and hotdogs were on that night too. Lots to learn at the pool.
Our neighbor Ed is really interesting, he was a charter fisherman, lived here in Clewiston all his life. I'm going to learn much from him I'm sure. Polly has started fattening him up already, made a very nice cheesecake for thanksgiving, of course neighbors gotta have a piece too!
Our neighbor on the other side, Laurie, she had a piece too, we haven't seen her since, but I'm sure she enjoyed it. Her trailer a park model, I found out she's renting off the resort, where Ed is here after selling his property here in Clewiston, a smaller pull trailer about 24' long. He lives full time here now.
The people we went to Fort Myers, to the flea market were welcoming, and friendly, I can't remember all their names, but Tim, he was the one I remember readily. He kinda lead us all around the market. Then for a bit of lunch, and another bit of shopping.
Sunday today, will go to Walmart, get a few things, and that'll be our start.
I have a couple books 📚 I've been saying I'll read one day, and while we are here I'm going to. Both written by Ernest Hemingway, imm going to look in the library for them today. "To have and have not." & "For whom the bell tolls."
I'm not sure what I'll get out of them, but I'm interested in him, and his writing. I watched a story on YouTube this morning of his life, and how much of what he wrote had had some to do with his life, so that'll be interesting to see how he wrote, and how it is compared to his life.
Polly is busy early with her card game she plays, talking lightly to herself as she plays, drinking her coffee ☕, and relaxing, early morning. Nice for us to sit together, yet have our own things that interest us. Polly first says, " We have to sign up for Christmas dinner" then Polly now talks about the desert she's planning for Christmas dinner, LoL, outta the blue she says "I think it'll be nice to have that check mix under the cupcake 🧁, like we saw yesterday". It takes me a bit to understand what she talking about, but I get it, then "yep I say, that be nice 👍"
Now she back to cursing her card game, and speaking to the tablet like the people at the table hear her lol 😂
And that an early morning in our house, quiet, with a plan, but slowly going along till Polly gets going. I've read, drank my coffee ☕ ☕, ate a couple muffins, gone to the bathroom, and researched a few things I wanted to know about, watched a short story, now I think I'll go for a walk. Well after I message a few friends.
That's another thing different here, we are 3 hours ahead of most our friends and family, so on a much different schedule. But still, will try to keep in touch!
Polly now almost singing out,"You guys are all going to get 26!" Lol she's very good at cards, and very happy to clobber her opponent's. Then on to the next game. I laugh to myself, I just couldn't do this over and over. I can play poker on line for awhile, but I get tired with it too.
I ordered a mini starlink dish 📡 yesterday, keeping decent Internet has been something we've always wanted, and this seems for now the best option. Will get it sometime this week, hopefully be as good as I read about it.
OMG, the latest outta Polly, I guess not going as good as a few minutes ago 🤣
I'm going to go do a walkabout now, well after I message.
Sure do love this life ❤️ of ours ❤️
