YEA! Back to Gulf Breeze RV Resort for another winter. We had planned on taking site 43 which we had 3 winters ago but the trees had grown and we didn't want to park under them. Our HitchHiker friends, Mike & Debra, are 2 roads over and we wanted to be near them so we took a site two away from them. It was hot, mid 80s, so we had a cool down rest after setting up then went to see Mike & Debra who were gracious and had dinner prepared for us! The next day the park maintenance workers were busy cutting the grass so I borrowed a tree trimmer from them and climbed into the bed of the truck and whacked off several small branches that were rubbing on the roof and side. It was a busy day as we were both up at 6:30. Judy dried off the truck and I cleaned the bugs off the HH front cap and dry waxed it. We went to Krystals, our favorite breakfast spot.........
I dropped Judy off at a shuttle bus site and she went to the Shrimp Festival, this is the first time we have been down here early enough to check it out. While she did that I aired up the bike tires and lubed the chains, vacuumed the truck, and a couple other minor tasks. Judy call about 1 so I drove over to the shuttle bus site and brought her home. It's in the high 80s and very humid.
Poor Patches is whipped after all the travel but she'll be back to normal after a couple days sleep......
Every year when we get down here she hugs the palm trees
In April 2007 we had sold our home in Michigan and moved into our new fifth wheel trailer to start our adventure of full timing and exploring in our RV. We started our blog so family and friends can track us and see what we are up to. You can double clink any picture to enlarge it.

Livingston, LA
It was 281 miles today, almost all on I10 and I12. While being passed by a FedEx tandem truck we heard a loud sharp bang. We pull off shortly after this and the bottom of the rear driver side door was dented and scratched. The semi must have kicked up a sizable rock or cunk of cement. Rudy & Linda have stayed at this campground and recommended it, it's Passport America and half off so $20 was a decent price for an overnight stop.

Time to head east
We got to visit and eat out with Rudy & Linda several times while we were in the Escapees park before we left. They have a ERPU site (long term lease) and reside here if not traveling. We also had some work done on the upstairs TV for Judy. She enjoys watching over the air channels and cable if a campground has it so she can tune in the local news. We are very optimistic that her reception is now greatly improved.
