Lazy Lakes RV Resort, Sugarloaf Key, Fl: This morning I stepped outside to bright sunshine and the distinctive call of the red winged black birds which are back. A really pretty morning with promise of a nice day—albeit pretty cold. But within an hour or so the clouds rolled in, the wind picked up, and we spent the rest of the day inside keeping warm. Guess we’d better get used to it since it’s supposed to be cold for a week or so. Last night after we came back from Boondocks, Esther was sitting outside with their dog, Shadow, so we stopped to say hello. Ended up staying for a while. They have a screen room with a gas heater inside so it was warm and cozy. A couple of other people wandered over before we finally trundled on home.

Cute little cottage on Southard with gingerbread trim.
