Sebastian Inlet SP to Clerbrook Golf & RV Resort, Clermont, FL:  Left this morning at around 10:00.  My turn to drive.  Headed north on A1A and then west on 192 which is a four-lane, limited-access highway.  Once we got beyond Melbourne and West Melbourne it was free sailing through a landscape reminiscent of old Florida. In Kissimmee we took the Florida turnpike all the way to Clermont.  Arrived at the park and I figured since I was driving I’d try backing into the site.  Well that was a mistake.  We use walkie-talkies and I usually give directions and Mike backs into the site.  We finally made it in.  It’s an easy site to get into, but we were just all screwed up.  Felt a lot better after a guy backing a huge motor home into the loop behind us got stuck in the sand—up to his axles.  A whole crew of maintenance guys showed up and dug a trench from the back axles out, put in boards, and finally they were able to drive the thing out. We were set up by 1:30 and then we headed to the laundry facility in the park and got the laundry out of the way.  Had dinner at Ay Jalisco.  88 today. 


A lot of sandhill cranes in the park.  They're so pretty.
