Arrived “Home”

Lutz, Florida

We left Ocala yesterday about 11 am, and drove the 90 miles to the Tampa area.  This driving the car following behind Al and the motorhome/toad is getting old.  We hope to get it sold while we’re in Tampa.  There is a guy here locally that wants to look at it.  I hope he buys it so that we don’t have to do that again.

We are technically not in Tampa, but just north on the outskirts.  It’s about the closest rv park to my Mom’s house though, so it’s a good fit. 

We’re staying at Winter Quarters Rv Park.   They give a good discount to Thousand Trails members so that discount was better than the Passport America discount.  We paid $120 for the week.  It’s nothing fancy.  There are a lot of permanent residents and many older park models and modified rv’s.  Definitely nothing special, but it will serve our purpose while we’re in Tampa. 

Al left already this morning to go do some of his pest control accounts.   I’m spending my birthday (big 60) by myself….but that’s okay because I’m enjoying the chance to stay put and relax.

  5. Have a happy birthday Karen. You're back in what was our home area for the past 38 years-Tampa then a move to Brandon and finally the past 14 years in Valrico. Must be hot down that way. Enjoy
