Sun, Jan 17, Lazy Lakes RV Park, Sugarloaf Key, FL:  High winds started this morning at around 7:00 and continued most of the day. It wasn’t as bad as we thought it would be. The sun actually peeked out a couple of times. But we were inside all day today anyway. Watched the Carolina/Seattle game which was a great one. Had pork chops, sautéed potatoes and asparagus for dinner. Mid-70s today and getting cooler.

Sat, Jan 16, Lazy Lakes RV Park, Sugarloaf Key, FL:  We actually had sunshine today. Went out for breakfast and then went on a wine run. Came back and sat outside for a while. Carolyn and Dale stopped over for a while and invited us over to their place. While there Chuck called Dale trying to put a marbles game together. So Doug and Chuck came over and we all went over to the clubhouse and played for a while. When we over at Dale and Carolyn’s the rain started and continued most of the night.. Upper 70s today.
