We packed up this morning and headed out; it didn’t take us too long considering we’ve been here two weeks now. Usually after that length of time there’s stuff everywhere that needs to be put away but we were quite tidy this past fortnight. I had checked last night that we had the address of where we were going today but as we got ready to leave this morning it turns out I really didn’t have it. The place I had the address for was not the place that Mike had reserved; why would they name two parks the same name? Anyway, after a little bit of a strop on my part we figured out where we were heading and hit the road. It was a good run, straight down the 27 and then a right turn, no problems. We got here about mid afternoon and got checked in and a nice little man in a golf cart showed us to our space. He, along with our new neighbours proceeded to “help” back the trailer into the space. Mike did manage to hold his tongue for which I am grateful, it wouldn’t be much fun if I had to avoid the neighbours cos Mike was mean to them as soon as we arrived. We had a little visitor as soon as we got here too, a lovely buzzing hornet. Mike had to come get him out of the trailer cos he was terrorizing me.
We got set up and boy was it hot. I think we get everything done much quicker when it’s either hot or cold, and definitely when it’s raining. I seem to have acquired a lot more jobs though recently. It used to be that Mike would take care of everything that needed doing outside and I would do the inside. Now I seem to be doing the outside stuff and the inside stuff; I refuse to touch the sewer stuff though, Mike can keep that job.
The park is not too bad, there are four ‘lakes’ here with gators and otters, and a nice clubhouse where we can go play bingo – or could if I knew how, they play weird bingo here. The sites are a little close together and we have some loud neighbours. Why do old people all talk so loud? I at least have someplace to walk Tal-y.
I’m not sure that there is a lot around this area but maybe we’ll take a drive tomorrow.

Mike: It took twice as long to set up because of all the little helpers!
