Week begin 1/03/2010

Week Six 1/3 – 1/9

Settled into the Okeechobee Landings RV Park here in Clewiston, Fl.  Weather still cold lows in the 30’s and highs in the 50’s, so not the Florida we were thinking about.  Sun has been out but the wind ‘bites”. 

Still haven’t gotten acquainted with any fellow RV’ers, other than daily greetings. Mostly French Canadian’s and they tend to gather amongst themselves speaking French.  Been trying to walk daily in spite of the weather.  Golf group on Wednesday’s, but still to cold to participate.

Thursday we took a road trip over to the Naples area.  Visited friend Ron Tenpas and he arranged for us to tour a very nice RV park in his neighborhood.  Crystal Lake RV Park, very nice “high rent” park.  They are totally booked for February, but do have some openings for March, so we may give consideration.  Met Ron at his place as he was just arriving from picking up his son & wife for a weeks stay, so just a quick hello and the we headed back to our park, about 1-1/2 hr. drive.

Friday, we are booked for a “King of Rock” Elvis show here at the Clewiston Inn for Elvis’s 75^th birthday.  Dinner at 5:30pm followed by the “Tribute Show”.   Met a very nice couple at our table staying at an RV park about 30 minutes from us.  They actually speak English!  Hope to get together for golf when weather permits.  Show was high energy with a chronological display of songs from his Ed Sullivan opening all the way up to his last live show.  It was fun! 

Saturday and Sunday weather still ugly and we were invited to visit daughter Lisa for the weekend and watch the Packer game Sunday.  Wow, what a game.  Fun but a disappointing ending.  Next week warmer weather we hope.

End of week six.
