Can't get away with anything

Seems like wherever we go we see someone we know.  We went to Walmart late on Friday and there was a friend that had just made their way south.  Where we had dinner, friends.  Today we went to lunch at McDons, friends - then Walmart, friends.

This morning Don took the Honda to the Honda place to get the wheels aligned  turns out they needed it badly.  Meanwhile, back at the ranch (campground) I cleaned and polished the leather furniture except for the fount chars - ran out of pep and more importantly it was 10:00 coffee time.

Tampa and beyond

As soon as we got up we turned on the TV to see that in fact President Obama won another term.  When we went to bed it was fairly certain but I wanted to know for sure.  Still Florida has not declared a winner as usual.  We are probably the only ones in the RV park that voted for Obama.

We went to Tampa today, ate at Sweet Tomatoes, did some shopping and then went to Camping World followed by Parksdale Farms for fresh fruit and vegetables.  Was a nice day to be out.

I got bit by a ant yesterday and am now suffering.  The only thing I could think about when I got bit was how much pain I was going to be going through in the next few days.  My ankle is all red and swollen.  Ice packs are about the only thing that helps (and Tylenol 3).

Sunny Sunday

We ate breakfast at our favorite Denny's and it was good as always - way above most Denny's.  Then we read our two Sunday papers, one we get delivered - the Leesburg paper and one we purchased - the Tampa paper.  We went to the 4PM ice cream social and then had a late dinner.  It has been a hot day but cooling down at night.

Work around the motorhome

Yesterday Don power washed our concrete patio.  It had gotten really black with mold over the summer but looks super now.  Today he washed the motorhome to get all the road grime off, it also looks good.  We picked up dinner at King's Wok, one of our favorite places.  It was good as usual and then we watched the movie "Best Exotic Marigold Hotel".  We enjoyed the movie but sure not for everyone.

Escapees meeting

We went to Clermont today for the monthly Escapees meeting at Golden Corral.  There were about 40 people there, not everyone has made it from the northern states yet.  Afterward we went to Camping Connection and purchased a new motion sensing porch light.  The plastic on our porch light is broken so is a good time to get one of the new 12 volt motion sensing lights.  Also went to Lowes and Kohls.  I didn't buy anything at Kohls, that is a first.
