Tue, Feb 11, 2020:  Got up this morning and started working on our tax return.  So far, so good.  Went to Crumb’s for lunch around 1:00.  They were slammed.  Didn’t get our food until 2:00 when they close.  Ate our lunch and the whole crew came out for a break since they’re getting ready to close up.  People kept coming at 2:20, even though they know they close at 2:00.  But they fed them anyway.  Such nice people.  In the afternoon Charlie stopped by with Molly on his way to the dog park.  Later Esther and Gerald came by for happy hour.  Really warm and humid today.  Nice!  Upper 80s.

Evening in The Glades.

Mon, Feb 10, 2020:  Had a busy weekend.  Mike’s son, James, and his wife, Carolina, came for a visit on Saturday.  Went to Sonny’s Barbecue for dinner before they left.  Because of a fishing tournament and a boat race event, they were slammed and out of a lot of menu items.  Bummer.  On Sunday, my brother, Ron, and his wife, Jan, came for a visit.  Was great to see them.  Haven’t seen them in a few years.  Today we got the grocery shopping and laundry out of the way.  Experiencing a really warm trend.  The lowest temps for the next 10 days will be 81.  Perfect!

Fri, Feb 7, 2020:  Not much going on today.  Started out pretty warm, but cooled down during the day.  We ran some errands in Clewiston.  That’s about it.  Supposed to be warmer throughout the rest of the week.  72 today.

Way cool boat on Lake Tahoe.

Thu, Feb 6, 2020:  A nice morning.  I love listening to the mocking birds’ happy chatter every morning.  Really windy today.  But really quiet since most of the park is over playing bean bag baseball.  Maybe next year we’ll get on a team.  It does look like fun.  I went out for a short walk.  Finished my latest book, “Where the Crawdads Sing.”  What a great book.  Getting ready to read “The Mistress of the Ritz” about an American woman who worked with the French Resistance during WWII and entertained Nazi officers hoping to glean information for the allies.  True story too.  87 today.  Think it hit a record.

Tue, Feb 4, 2020:  Finally!  Success!  I was able to download and install the driver for my printer!  Yay!  A beautiful day today.  However, most of it was spent inside because I had two appointments that took most of the day.  82 today!  Perfect!

Mon, Feb 3, 2020:  Congratulations to the Kansas City Chiefs!  Great game yesterday!  Really cool this morning.  Got the grocery shopping and laundry out of the way.  Tomorrow I have a couple of appointments in LaBelle and wanted to get those two chores out of the way.  A nice, sunny day today.   74 was the high.  Still trying to get the driver installed for our HP printer.  Still no success.

Sat, Feb 1, 2020:  Expecting bad weather coming our way.  Put the awnings up.  Nothing but a little rain so far.  No wind.  Good thing I guess.  Nasty day out there though.  I decided to get on the computer and try to download a driver for our HP printer.  I was successful in downloading, but the file doesn’t show up anywhere in “my downloads” so I can’t install it.  I fear I’ll have to buy a new printer for the RV.  Frustrating.  Anyway, went for a walk yesterday and stopped by our neighbor three sites down.  They just bought a new Mobile Suites 44ft. fifth wheel.  It has a bath and a half and a residential washer and dryer.  They live in their RV full time, so they need the space.  It also has a dishwasher.  Jeeze.  He and his brother have sites next to each other.  They’re both really nice people.  We are lucky to have such nice neighbors.  Anyway, really raining hard now.  Probably in the 70s out there.

There's usually a herd of cattle across the river.  We are out in the country out here.  Love it!
