Beach for Sun

We went down to Tarpon Springs,where the Fred Howard Park is located along the gulf.
We like to walk here under the shade of the trees and a breeze blowing off of the gulf waters. This makes it a pleasant walk.
Along the walk we saw this squirrel beside the path looking for something to eat and at the same time keeping an eye on us.

Going on the causway out to the island we saw a few people fishing. Couldn't tell if they were catching fish or not. I guess they were enjoying themselves anyway.

The parking spaces along the beach side were not crowded one bit. Unlike on the week-end,you can hardly find a spot to park.
Not to many people out enjoying the sunshine. A few young people. but mostly us older folks.
We only stayed a couple of hours because we have lost all of our tan so we didn't want to burn up.
Just another lazy relaxing day.

Sunset

Today we had to wash the clothes at the laundromat. That always takes a little time and money. Oh well I guess we'll make it some how.
We did get the time to go out and watch the sunset over the "Gulf of Mexico" this evening. It is always a beautiful site watching the sun drop with the birds flying by. There are always people out taking picture. Today was another hot day.

Another beautiful day here today. This is the kind of weather Florida is suppose to be like.
Yes,the kind of weather that make the people from the north "snowbirds". Here on the east coast you can see all the elderly people here for the winter. Of course even the younger fulltime rv'ers also spend some winter months in Florida.

We went to church today and on the way back we stopped in at the "Breakfast Station" for dinner. Even though they are mainly a breakfast place they do serve other things.
We will not be doing to much today. This is our day off.

Nice Morning

Yes it is a nice morning here today. With the temp getting back up to the 80's.
We.ve still got more inside work to do on the motorhome. Today we will steam clean the carpet. I hope it turns out ok,because we only have a small carpet cleaner and have never used it, It may take several times before we can tell any difference. I've already washed the car,so this is another busy day, Boy I hope we catch up soon on the cleaning.

Again

Upon seeing the Doctor yesterday and talking to him he scheduled a stress test for the 18th. He wants to see if I have more blockage in the artery or if the stent he put in a year and a half ago is ok. So thats the scoop on that.
We are going to the Flea Market today to see if they have anything that we just can't do with out. I need to get some 12v light bulbs and no doubt we will end up getting other things.
We will do quite a bit of walking there and then go to other places to finish up.
The weather here is warming up nice. It will get up to 80* today.

Doctor Appointment

We did get our cleaning of the motorhome yesterday. The ceiling,walls and woodwork. We could tell it this morning as both of us woke up moaning and groaning. Boy,are we out of shape.
I guess we do pretty good though. Besides all that work we still managed o get in 5 miles of walking. The life of fulltime rv'ing is great,but sometimes you have to stop having fun and get to work on the house.
Today I have an appointment with the cardiologist. Hope all is good news from him.

Grrrrrrr.

I've spent a lot of time on the computer this morning. I always go into my favorites My Website folder for to check to see how many pennies I've earn from people clicking on the google adds. For some reason the folder was gone? I didn't delete it and I have no idea how it disapeared. So I went into the search and luckily it was in there. I had to may a new folder and bring up each website to put back into it. These computers sometimes have a mind of their own.
Anyway,it looks like today will be a day to clean inside of the motorhome. The ceiling and walls,then somethings outside. We are going to try and steam clean the carpet this week-end.

Getting in stride

We are getting back to walking. We got behind with the way our summer was.

We walked today in the J. B. Starkey Park. Here is the bike and walking path. This path is 6 miles long. I don't have to tell you we haven't walk the complete length yet. We also went to the Dollar Tree and WalMart for a few things. Hopefully we will get back in shape shortly.
It was cool and a good day to walk.

Walking

We're about to catch up with our walking. We walked over to the new Home Depot and Kohls. Walked around inside to look at everything then back home. After eating some fruit for lunch we went down to the .99 store to see what they had. We bought some canned vegetables. Then it was a stop into the Winn-Dixie store. I stopped and picked up a "hot and ready" pizza from Little Caesars. Nancy does like to get her pizza fix.

We got to the park yesterday and set up all we could. The jacks still wouldn't go down so we were off "kilter". After we had lunch I started to checking to see if I could find what was wrong with the jacks. I checked all the fuses and they were good. Next I took the control buttons out of the dash and saw an inline fuse. I thought to myself this could be the one I've been looking for,but it was good also. The circuit board had a lot of dust on it so I blew the dust off and checked the wiring. What do you know,that cured the problem. So now the motorhome is level and Nancy can walk without staggering.
We had some of Nancys good spaghetti for dinner.
Today we went to church and met some people we havn't seen before. Preacher Guy had a good sermon. After church we came home and had the left over spaghetti from yesterday and it was still real good. After dinner I did some more thing around the motorhome to make it more like home.

Port Richey,Florida

Well we are still here in the WalMart parking lot getting our showers a ready to go on over to Orchid Lake Park. I was ready first and went out to clean all the bugs off of the windsheild.
There was 2 other motorhomes that spend the night here. As I was cleaning the windows one of the guys came over and with the usuall "where you heading" that always start a conversation. I told hime just around the corner. He said he was going down to Sarasota Bay. He had spent the past winter at Suncoast RV Resort here in Port Richey. For some reason the "no see ums are real bad in this park. Those are the little bugs that are all teeth.
The temps are getting hot real quick today,the temp is suppose to be 81 for the day.
