Fri, Mar 11, Lazy Lakes RV Park, Sugarloaf Key, FL, to Everglades National Park:  Didn’t need to worry about getting out of our site. We had no problems at all. Left at 10:00 and arrived at the Everglades and were set up by 1:30. Love it here. And we have a great site. I was worried we wouldn’t be able to fit into any of the sites in the Long Pine Key campground, but no problem. And they’ve built two new shower houses here in this campground—one in the RV section and one in the tent section. It is great to see money being spent in our national parks. After we got set up and had some lunch, we drove out to Mahogany Hammock to see if there were any new owlets this year. Didn’t see anything, but we’ll go back every day. They could have been sleeping or something. Or maybe they’ve already fledged. Came back and filled our two water jugs. We’ll top off the tank tomorrow morning after our showers. We’ll have no hook-ups for 7 days. We’ll see how well the solar panels keep up. But we always have the generator as back-up. 82 here and beautiful.

Our new, much bigger site here in the Everglades.
