Well...Mom insisted so we turned on the A/C for a little while today.

Florida's being a little perverse this year. We had a low of 26F last week. then back up warm this week. OTOH our other CG in north Geogia hit 12F last week...

And fwiw we're in one of two rv spots lakefront in a fish camp in southcentral Florida for the princely sum of $300/mo. No sardines in a field for us.

So YOU are the one that got that spot! I saw that place and jumped on the phone but alas they were already filled. Can't complain though I was lucky to have great friends that let me stay on their 20 ac property with hookups for free this year. Right by your undisclosed area!

I think I am going to check out Rainbow lakes in Dunnellon this weekend for a change of scenery.

That sounds nice. Today in Oklahoma it is chilly out and very cloudy. But, it's our dogs 15 month birthday so we are snuggled in and having a nice roast beef with carrots, onion and potatoes. snuggle weather works for me too.

I am glad you are having a good time.

Well ... right now in the S.C. Mountains it's 60 degrees and I'm looking out at the redwoods beside the pool with deer grazing on our hillside. I guess we could stay in the RV parked a few feet away, but we can take longer showers in the S&B.

To top it off, our BIL is arriving in their RV from WA in a couple of weeks to camp on the CA beach a few miles from here so as to get away from the typical Puget Sound you-know-what winter.

It has been 33 degrees here all day in Buxton, Oregon ... of course with that 8-10 inches of snow around us, it is a mite chilly. Did have fun watching the kiddos play in the snow Sunday making snowmen, sledding, etc. Plans are to be near Astoria for Feb thru April. Love, love the forests.

Date: January 8
78 degrees, sunny, and mild. Just got done BBQ'ing a nice steak and grilled chicken. Now relaxing in the sun, shorts and sandals, with a cold one.

Just saying....I thought I'd share with you!
Ahhh, Florida and the ability to be there!

go ahead and rub it in--someday we'll have that kind of weather & we'll be equal.

Been to Florida once, that was plenty. Enjoy yourself.

Went once in 2006. Went back last June only because the Hot Rod Power Tour started in Cocoa Beach. I see no reason to go back...well, unless the Power Tour hits Panama City or CB again.

We are on the southern Oregon coast in a small town called Port Orford.
The weather has changed now. Mid 40s in the morning and is not getting much warmer during the day. Rain for the next week or so and the wind blew almost 100 at the cape, Cape Blanco.

We love the storms on the Oregon coast.
