Happy Valentine's Day....we started the day with a trip to the Fort Myers Flea Market - WOW!!!! This has to be the Grand Daddy of all flea markets???? Enjoyed our time there on this beautiful sunny, warm Saturday! First Watch was our lunch stop - very good choice!!!
Rode our bikes to Hidden Harbor which is a new development fairly close to our park. The homes will be $700,000+ and been fun riding thru the area as no construction has begun yet. There is a lake with manatees, egrets, ospreys, etc., and today, this manatee with babies went swimming past us.
Our neighbors here in the RV Park, Bill and Marsha from New Hampshire celebrating their 33rd wedding anniversary on Valentine's Day!
Beautiful Valentine's table at Sue and Jerry's condo

Very overcast and misty rain till 2:30 and then the sun came out and a gorgeous 81-degree day! We did a few errands and browsed at The Sandy Butler (very nice gourmet market). Drove to Fort Myers beach and walked around Moss Marina and the Times Square area and out on the pier. Then to our friends, Mike and Claire's condo for delicious wine and hors'doeuvres!

It's Tuesday and Mark and I each got haircuts and then we were able to see Air Force One coming in to land. With the binoculars, we could see the big jet very clearly and the American flag on the tail. Air Force One and President Obama coming into Fort Myers
