Catching up and cleaning

Last night I thought we'd get a great night sleep - and about 2am - another rain storm came in. Only this time only rain, no lightning and thunder, thank goodness. Reminded us of when we had our sailboat and we lived on it every weekend, rain or shine. Neat noise, for a while, then, got on your nerves. Dave and I took turns thrashing about, he went out to the couch in the livingroom, then I did. So, by 6:30am he decided that the truck and RV needed washing - only it was still pouring rain. Out he went and washed down everything. Amazing the Alabama Crimson Tide - that soil is really red! Looks awful on a white truck and RV.

By 9:30am the rain had stopped and the rest of the day was absolutely beautiful - about 78 and sun, sun, sun. We are in a campground that is predominately snowbirds - those that have come to FLA for the winter and will be leaving shortly. They are typically on their way out by now, but due to the bad winter they had, they are trying to scarf up as much of the good weather before heading home. I think we are about the youngest here, and the amazing thing is most of the RVs are 5th wheels. The other 3 places we camped, we were the minority - they were those big Class A Motorcoaches. King Lake is really big, you can rent a small boat if you want, or just fish off the pier.

There is a restaurant right here at the campground - will go there tomorrow for breakfast and then head to Pensacola and the Air Force Base Museum (Elgin) for a tour. Then head to the beach for some photo ops for Dave. From now until next Wednesday the weather is supposed to be wonderful, thank You!!
