Mon, Feb 22, Lazy Lakes RV Park, Sugarloaf Key, FL:  Rained off and on today, but they still played shoes. I finished up the cleaning and read my book. Around 4:30 we went over to the KOA for happy hour, picking up Chuck and Douglas on the way. We didn’t go out for dinner with the rest of them. I wanted to finish up some left-overs. Mid-70s today.

Sun, Feb 21, Lazy Lakes RV Park, Sugarloaf Key, FL:  Went over to the clubhouse at 9:30 this morning to help decorate for the NASCAR party. Went over there at around 11:00 for appetizers and lunch was at noon. The race started at 1:00 and after a few laps we went home to watch. Rather, Mike watched. I worked on my knitting and read my book. A really nice day today. Upper 70s with mixed clouds and sun.

Early evening this beautiful rainbow formed.

Couldn't even get the whole thing in the frame.

And then...a beautiful moon rise.

Sat, Feb 20, Lazy Lakes RV Park, Sugarloaf Key, FL:  A quiet day today—until the evening when we went over to the KOA where Howard Livingston and the MM24 band was performing. Dave and Amy met us there. We ran into Jerry and Char who we gave a ride home and then we gathered at our place and continued the revelry. Went over and got Dale and Carolyn and also our neighbor, Larry. A fun night. On the cool side again today.

Fri, Feb 19, Lazy Lakes RV Park, Sugarloaf Key, FL:  I know I sound like a broken record, but yet another sunny, but windy and cool day. Actually, it was blustery. We drove to Key West and saw Michael Moore’s latest documentary, “Where to Invade Next?” A really great movie which should be required viewing by members of Congress. After the movie we stopped at 2 Cents restaurant and had a couple of drinks and an appetizer. We were enjoying this immensely until a group from Michigan came in and were loud—screaming and yelling—and completely oblivious to the other patrons. We were glad to get out of there. Back home and stayed in the rest of the evening. Low 70s today and really W I N D Y.

Lazy Lakes RV Park, Sugarloaf Key, FL:  Another nice, sunny day—but a little on the chilly side. We ended up watching our Netflix movie, “Beneath the Candelabra”. A great movie about the life of Liberace played by Michael Douglas and his partner, Scott, was played by Matt Damon. I believe Michael Douglas got an Academy Award for his performance. After the movie we walked over to the KOA and back. Felt good to get out and get some exercise. Stopped to see Dave and Amy after our walk and then on our way back to our site we ran into a group of revelers at George’s site. Poured a glass of wine and went over to join them for a while. Left-overs for dinner tonight. Low 70s today.

Beautiful sunrise this morning.

Wed, Feb 17, Lazy Lakes RV Park, Sugarloaf Key, FL:  A nice sunny day today. I played with the band after lunch. And a couple of the guys in the park made spaghetti for the dinner tonight. Really good with lots of sides and desserts. I ate way too much. Was miserable all night. Mid-70s today but chilled off quite a bit by dinner.

Tue, Feb 16, Lazy Lakes RV Park, Sugarloaf Key, FL:  A pretty nice day today. We did our usual Tuesday chores of laundry and grocery shopping. The laundry was really slammed. Had lunch at Big John’s Pizza after. Back home and put everything away. I changed into shorts and pulled my chaise into the sun and read my book for a while. Carolyn came over with a glass of wine. I joined her and before long Dale came over. Then Larry joined us. Another fun afternoon. We had left-over pork roast for dinner which was just as good as yesterday. Upper 70s today and really nice.
