Wintering in Florida


After spending Christmas in Cedar Key, we drove to Seffner, Florida for a short three-night stay at Lazydays RV Resort. We visited Julie’s Aunt Jo, who turns 92 in March, and enjoyed lunch together. She loves to garden and grow flowers in her backyard.


On Saturday, January 29th, we drove south to LaBelle, about 20-miles east of Fort Myers, to spend a couple of weeks at Oak Grove RV Resort. We spent several months here last year. My sister Marcia and brother-in-law Mike are also staying in LaBelle, but at another RV resort up the road. We enjoyed New Year’s Eve, but at these 55+ resorts, the ball drops a lot earlier than midnight!

We enjoyed going to a musical a few weeks ago, On Your Feet, The Emilio & Gloria Estefan Broadway Musical, in Fort Myers with Mike and Marcia.


Mike and Marcia invited us over for dinner one night and Marcia made Key Lime pie martinis. They were yummy! The sunset was awesome too.



Last Friday we enjoyed going to the Friday Night car races at Mike and Marcia’s RV resort. The cars are all radio-controlled and battery or gas-powered. There were eight racing heats and then a feature race with the heat winners. We liked all the races and I got an idea of how hard it must be for the drivers to control their radio-controlled cars.



We enjoyed an evening out tonight at The Boathouse Tiki Bar & Grill in east Fort Myers on the Caloosahatchee River with several folks from the RV park we're staying at. It was our first time there and we'll be going back.


  
We head back to Seffner tomorrow where we’ll spend six nights at Lazydays RV Resort. We’re going to the 2019 Florida RV Super Show, the country’s biggest RV show, which is open Wednesday-Sunday. Our friends Kris and Jan from Albuquerque are meeting us on Tuesday.
