Carport - Abba - Visiting -

Auburndale, FL (Hi 58  Lo 43)

Our carport is done!  It's been a couple years since we thought of getting the carport painted and the doors painted. Now we're done with all upgrades at least on the outside. (Click on photos to enlarge).
Before picture, see the white doors?

After, Now it's burgundy to match the shutters.

 It took five hours to paint the doors three coats of paint. The cement golfcart pad is now the same color as the rest of carport.





















Sunday we went to St. Petersburg to meet with RV'ing friends, Anna, Ed and Lessie. I forgot to take pictures but they were here last month so I used that picture.
Ed, Jim, Lessie and Anna

We went to Cody's and had a great visit. Good food and friends, it doesn't get any better.

Monday, was busy Jim had a dr appointment, then I worked at hospice, came home fixed dinner and went to ABBA tribute concert. We had seats seven rows back. It was a great concert and they did a wonderful job with the music.













Tuesday most of the day was waiting for the car maintenance. I crocheted all day without moving much. I love those types of days. I did get half of an order done and mailed out.
Sloths, elephants, koala bears, kangaroos, Echidna, platypus, and kookaburra bird. It's an Australian theme. I still have plenty more to do so I'll be busy.

Wednesday we went to Dade City to see Hank and Selene our RV'ing friends. We knew them before we went fulltime on the road from North Carolina. We haven't seen them in a couple years but we picked up right where we left off without a skipped beat. 

They're at Travelers Rest RV resort in Dade City. The park is owned by the people not by a corporation. It started out as an Air Stream group of people and there's still a lot of Air Streams still around. They have a snack shack that's run by people that stay in the park during the winter. There's 600 sites and about a third stay year round.
The shack and surrounding area.



Enlarge the picture and check out the prices.

Several ponds around. It has a very nice setting.



There's a large library and they're selling book holders or Ipads, phones etc. It's really a neat idea.

Thursday was clean up day, organizing some things that I've let go and overall "down" day.
Friday I worked at hospice and home to relax and catch up on TV shows. So far we're very happy with "cutting the cord" on cable. YoutubeTV is great and I can even do well with the remote and get the shows without problems.

Something we found out about spam on phones. If you're with Verizon you can call them to put on spam blocker. You won't get annoying calls.

We're going to have another busy week, stay tuned.
