Tue, Dec 16:  Lazy Lakes RV Park, Sugarloaf Key, FL:  A beautiful, sunny day today   Not a cloud in the sky.  We decided to do the laundry and grocery shopping today because tomorrow night we’re going to see a play at the Red Barn Theater in Key West. Got that done, had lunch and were back home by 1:00.  Sat outside reading the rest of the afternoon.  Beautiful.  Went for a walk around the lake before it got too late.  A great day!

When I look up from my book, this is my view.  

Our cute little site.

Mon, Dec 15:  Lazy Lakes RV Park, Sugarloaf Key, FL:  It’s actually warming up!  This morning you could feel it was much warmer.  And the wind was down.  We were actually able to sit outside in tee shirts.  Walked over to the office and got our Netflix and stopped to talk to Ted who just pulled in.  Tonight we went over to the KOA pub for happy hour.  I walked over and Mike drove over later.  Enjoyed happy hour and then a bunch of us went to Boondocks for some dinner.  It chilled down quite a bit after the sun went down.  Glad I had a jacket with me.  Mike not feeling so good this morning.  He didn’t even get up until about 11:00.  I was tiptoeing around trying not to disturb him.  But he was feeling good enough to go to happy hour.  So, all is well.  Another beautiful day in paradise.

Sun, Dec 14:  Lazy Lakes RV Park, Sugarloaf Key, FL: Another sunny but cool day today.  We did pretty much nothing.  Mike not feeling great.  I only went outside once. Oh well, tomorrow is another day. Kicking back and doing nothing is allowed.

Love all the flowering flora down here.

Sat, Dec 13:  Lazy Lakes RV Park, Sugarloaf Key, FL:  Really sunny today, but really cool and windy.  Undaunted, we walked around the lake and froze.  Stopped at the office to check our mail, but it was locked.  So, our Netflix will have to wait until Monday.  Sandy and John invited us over for a fish dinner at their site.  A bunch of people showed up and everyone brought something.  A great meal and a chance to socialize.

Fri, Dec 12:  Lazy Lakes RV Park, Sugarloaf Key, FL:  A cool but mostly sunny day today.  After our morning ablutions and some breakfast we headed to Big Pine to drop off the bikes for some work and then run some other errands.  While waiting for the bikes we went to the Galley Grill for some lunch.  Picked the bikes up and drove back home through the various construction going on.  Didn’t feel as warm as yesterday.  Sat outside reading for a while, but the chill drove me in.  71 today and breezy.

The beach at Ft. Zach.  Not today for sure.

Thu, Dec 11:  Lazy Lakes RV Park, Sugarloaf Key, FL:  A beautiful and sunny day today.  But still cool.  So we headed to Key West to see “The Theory of Everything” at the Tropic Cinema.  A great movie and the British guy that played Stephen Hawking will probably get an Academy Award.  He should get one anyway.  After the movie we walked around Key West a little.  Felt so good to be outside walking around enjoying this spring-like day with the wonderful fragrances wafting in from the sea.  72 today as we were driving home.

This poor gull had fishing line hanging off him.  Doesn't seem to bother him, but I wish fisher people would be more careful about their fishing line.

Wed, Dec 10:  Lazy Lakes RV Park, Sugarloaf Key, FL:  Finished setting up this morning and then went on a grocery run.  Picked up a pie for the dinner at the clubhouse tonight and then had lunch at Pizza Works.  Bought some rope lights to put around our site.  Back home and put everything away and then set up the lights.  Really disappointed because the bike paths going towards Key West are stalled for some reason.  They’re still working on the new sewer pipes going in along Hwy 1 and Summerland and Ramrod Keys are torn up somewhat.  Thought they’d be done by this time, but this is the Keys.  Off to the dinner tonight to catch up with our snow bird friends.  Cool and breezy today.  High of 67.
