    We move near our "home base" yesterday. Time for Doctor appointments for all of us, furkids too. Hopefully 2 weeks will be enough.

     

    My feet are hurting from all the walking in Canton at the fleamarket. No major purchases except for a stun gun for Tina to keep me in line. LOL.

     

    Travel safe everyone.

    We drove up to that one in Auburndale while we stayed in Wauchula. Spent 6 hrs at the Canton fleamarket yesterday and going back today. Still lots to see. Found a game I had as a kid and couldn't pass it up for $10. It has all the pieces but box is in bad shape. http://www.samstoybox.com/toys/Magnetel.html

     

    Tried to bargain on some vintage Ford Model T and A tools but couldn't pull off a deal. Will go back later.

     

    Antique stores and flea markets are our weakness. Can't buy anything big while living in the RV. LOL.

     

    Travel safe.

    If you have never been there before I would suggest you get a map to find your way around and take your GPS to find your way out of the flea market. That thing is huge and scattered every where. Have fun and stay safe and dry,

     

    We've never been before. Heard its way big. Thanks for the tips.

    Tina and I ate lunch at Lambert's Cafe yesterday here in Foley, Al. I know a few have eaten at Lambert's Cafe before but you that haven't I think it's a must do. Back last June we ate at the one in Ozark, Mo. so we had to do it again when we were this close. The portions are great and the "throwed rolls" are the size of a softball. We had lunch and dinner yesterday and still have leftovers. LOL. If you get a chance to go you can't miss it. There are only three and the third one is in Sikeston, Mo.

    One of the coldest mornings we've had this "winter". 39 degrees and could be a little colder tomorrow. Sounds like a beach day. LOL.

     

    Travel safe everyone.

    We'll still be here in AJ in May. Would love to meet up with you guys for a meal if you have time. When we finally get out of here the end of May we want to head up to Idaho before getting to Montana and fishing.

     

    Sandie,we'll try to make some time to meet with you and Jim. Going be there for our Granddaughter's high school graduation. Hope it's not hot then. LOL.

    Who's thinking about going to Colorado this summer? We'll be in Loveland (Boyd Lke State Park) for the 4th of July and Aurora (Cherry Creek State Park) the week before. We'll be in Phoenix and Tucson in May then head toward Colorado.

     

    After Colorado we are looking at northern Utah, Idaho and Washington state. Going down the coast late summer toward the southwest for the winter.

     

    Jeri, we stopped at the Redding Elks summer before last and it was very active. The ER was a young woman that was about 40 years old. We've seen the same lodges as you lately that have even filled in swimming pools with dirt.

     

    Travel safe everyone.

    Getting here a day early meant no storms but I was zonked. It was a mighty early time to bed last night but it'll take a while to adjust to two time zone changes in two days when we cross over into Arizona in a few hours. We hope those storms are finally behind us. We'll be in Tucson for about a week before we head on into the Phoenix area for another week or two.

     

     

     

    What ever happened to that "slow trek westward". LOL. You guys have left us in the dust if there was any. It's all mud from days of rain. Yesterday was a do nothing day just staying dry. Temps are going to cool for a couple of days and the rain showers are suppose to stop today. It's sunny now. Going to Fairhope for an Arts and Crafts Festival and a Trade Days. Taking the unbrellas.

     

    Apparently the Elks lodge property here in Foley, Al. is sold or being sold. One of the residents told me it will be gone in the next year or so.

     

    Travel safe everyone.

    Long drive for us today. 25 miles. Warrington (Pensacola) Elks to Foley, Al. Elks. We are worn out. LOL. We'll be here a week, Suppose to rain off & on through Saturday. It's not raining right now and 73 degrees plus 83% humidity. Yikes! It will be great to dry out this summer in the west.

     

    We finally left Florida. Was in the state since early October.

     

    Travel safe everyone.

    Nice to have family scattered around the country ready to feed you. :)

     

    Linda

     

    Going to a cousin's house on Tuesday evening in Pace, Fl. while we are in Pensacola. Haven't seen them in years.Will be a good time.

     

    We're slowly trekking west, slowly.

     

    Terry must've installed rockets on your rig. One day Pensacola then before you know it Johnson City, Texas. Yikes. What's it like if you're in a hurry? I guess you fly. LOL.

     

    Tina and I went for a horseback ride yesterday. First time i've been on a horse in 25 years. I'm definitely not Roy Rogers. I made it the whole hour without incident. Then after lunch down by the beach took in a St. Patrick's day parade. Beach time hasn't been good while we've been on the coast this week. Red flag or double red flag every day. Going for a bike ride today along 30A today. Pensacola tomorrow.

     

    Travel safe everyone.

    Y'all in rain doing alright? Just been windy here in the Florida panhandle. Tried to walk and sit on the beach yesterday and got lightly sand blasted. Spring break time here, haven't seen many kids. Driving through Panama City today. They've really cracked down on the kids.

     

    A year ago yesterday we found (rescued/adopted) our pup while on our Baja trip. A high energy puppy for sure. Unfortunately for me 2 weeks ago I was laying on the couch and she wanted to play. I wasn't paying attention to her when she stuck her foot in my right eye. The cornea got scratched and there may be some retina damage. My vision isn't what it was before a little fuzzy with floaters and some light flashes. An eye doctor scraped the cornea last Friday because she didn't like the way it was healing and put in a contact for the weekend. Monday she took the contact out and said it looked good. We'll see the eye doctor that did my cataract surgery in a couple of weeks to see what she says. Bummer.

     

    Peyton retires, Brock leaves and goes to Houston. What will the Broncos do to repeat next year? I know this is a major concern for everyone. LOL.

     

    Travel safe everyone.

    Update on Denise. She is back in Canada and staying with a friend. Her cousin winterized her rig and is storing it for her.

     

    Hard to believe she has to winterize her rig and we are going to hit 91 here today.

     

    Hope Denise can get well soon and we'll see her next winter in AZ.

     

    What is this winterizing you're talking about? LOL.

     

     

    we always stay at Bayou Segnette State Park in Algiers LA just across the river from New Orleans. Catch the cheap ferry over the river and they drop you off at the aquarium in the french quarter district

     

    Thanks for the tip. Never know where will end up.

     

    Travel safe everyone.

    In the old Elks book we have it doesn't show it but online it is listed with some RV sites. I also thought about the Slidell Elks but not sure what one is better. I'm sure we'll be there and gone before you get there .... is that right?

    I did the Google maps thing and it's just in their paved parking lot but it's closer to being in town then Slidell is. We won't be there till later in March.
