PICTURES FROM FLORIDA

Allan and I drove the RV to Sarasota to Sun N Fun RV Resort and parked for about a week.

Yancy and Brian and their friends, Dave and Rhonda, drove from Birmingham with a LOADED car along with Maggie, our grand dog. They stayed with us. We had wall to wall air mattresses, but surprisingly it did not seem crowded to us.

They were gone most of the days to the beach and other activities.

We really enjoyed having them. Allan was able to spend quite a bit of time with his brother Paul.

We got together with all of his family one night at a Mennonite restaurant. It took two long tables to accommodate everyone. We were able to visit with Mary, Paul's wife, and Becky Doll, a cousin of Allans. There was a canoe trip down the Peace River with the alligators and a trip to Myaka Park. Everyone had fun. Allan and Yancy tipped over their canoe and Paul catapulted out of his canoe.  Allan and I got a chance to walk on the beach one evening.

We drove to St. Augustine, Florida for a one night stay.

The town was very crowded with no places to park. Allan would get out to take pictures and I would drive around the block and then pick him up.

Our next stop was Georgia.

We visited Jekyll Island and St. Simons Island and Savannah.

None of the beaches we have seen along the East coast compare to the Gulf especially Siesta Beach in Sarasota.  While we were on Jekyll Island we visited Sea Turtle Center where they do research and rescue work.  It was very interesting to see all differnent kinds of turtles up close.  Allan says we resemble a turtle as we carry our house around with us.
