HAPPY NEW YEAR 2011!

(Wauchula, FL -- Hi  81 Lo 49)  It was a warm morning.  As we completed our daily walks we enjoyed watching all the new RV's coming into the park.  We've got quite a few new neighbors on our row.  We've met a few of them already, and we're looking forward to meeting more of them at the New Year's Eve party tonight. It's going to be a great time.  People here are so friendly, and it will be a good opportunity to continue to learn everyone's name.

I went to another string art class. It's fun learning the different stitches to get different designs. I didn't finish today, because I had to leave a little early to play shuffleboard. I'll finish it later.  I need to get needles and paper.  This is something that will be fun, and will give me something to do besides stay on the computer so much.

We kept track of the storms in the midwest. There were tornadoes in Illinois where our son lives, and he sent us a couple of text messages today about them.  He works as a news producer for the NBC TV station in St. Louis, and he said it's the worst he's seen in awhile. We hope everyone in that area of the country makes it through the storms ok.

It was very warm out so Jim decided to grill our dinner tonight.  I had to include this photo for our northern friends.

Tonight we're going to the clubhouse for the New Year's Eve Party.  We wish everyone a VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR!  We thank you so much for following along with us here in paradise.
