1/18  "Six days on the road and now I'm gonna make it home tonight". Well , maybe not home but to our temporary home at Myakka River State Park near Sarasota, FL. On the way down we stayed one night at a hotel, the second night at my sister and brother-in-laws (Mary Jo and Terry), got de-winterized in Macon and stayed a night at each of 4 campgrounds until we got here. Everyone is complaining about how cold it is here. 50 at night, mid 60's during the day. We think it is fabulous! We'll be here 9 days and then head to another camping spot. While here, we hope to connect with friends, Judy and Bob, who live about an hour from here.
1/19 Hiked 5 miles, Denny's breaking in his new shoes so we need to take it slow! Very wet here, there was a tornado nearby on 1/16 and lots of rain. We were still in northern Florida so only got the rain (but plenty of it)! Most of the hiking and biking trails here are flooded so we will stay mainly on paved roads for now.
1/20 Biked 5 miles so far today. Denny has a new bike which is nice but he needs a more comfortable seat before we can bike longer.
