How can it be the last day of 2017? But it is and we are having a beautiful day in Florida. We went to 8:00 Mass at Church of the Resurrection - wow, what an uplifting experience with vibrant priest, beautiful Christmas décor, awesome music for the season and a very inspiring homily on the Holy Family which is today's feast day.
Stopped at Panera for breakfast and then spent over an hour putting our stuff away, organizing car, etc. I drove Toad and Mark had Daisy as we came across from Lakeland to Okeechobee. It was a 2-hour trip with 70 degrees and sunny, bright-blue skies.
It's good to be back here at Water's Edge as we were met with hugs from friends, Sue and Jud from Virginia and Sue and Gary from Oklahoma (now officially nomads).
We were here in January, 2016
The towing mechanism that we use to pull Toad is back in IL (had thought we would be there this weekend to get truck and bring back stuff from storage). The truck has arrived in East Peoria, so planning to leave (fly) mid week for the tundra and then drive back. We have to put 1000 miles on truck before we can tow new Airstream which is expected to be in Tampa late January.
So sorry to hear Brady and Drew are latest victims of the flu....
Liam and Connor serving mass this last day of the year at Holy Trinity!
We celebrated here at Water's Edge with several RV'ers with an appetizer party at the club house and by the pool. Met new folks and had a great time comparing notes about our travels. Later we gathered around a big bonfire and enjoyed hot and cold beverages chatting away.
Hope your New Year's Eve plans are fun, safe and wishing you many blessings in 2018~
