Suzie and I are barthing on down to Naples, [Golden Gate area] for a weekend at L&J Resort Campground. It's a little known place with 2 sites, one of which is taken up by the owners Barth, but comes with a 30 amp hook-up and the price is right. Just some drywall repair!
We should arrive around lunchtime today, and plan on staying till monday. See you soon Lennie and Judy.

No Daytona 500 party???

With any luck we'll be in the Naples area by Wednesday, then on to the Keys for a month! Yeehaaa!

Meanwhile my luck is consistent... 2 days before we head to Florida we get another 6 inches of snow AND gas goes up 30 cents! At least Barth is ready (I think!) Tomorrow I head downstate, we'll see.

Hi Steve, If any problem in Ky, You have my cell number, Have a great trip to the Keys. Tom and Nancy

We got another 6 inches of snow Fri night. By Sat morning a foot.. I didn't take any pics, too depressing!

Ran the snowblower once more and subjected Barth to the indignity of snowy roads. At least Barth seems happy and ran great after the Big Sleep. Arrived at my house downstate to find almost no snow. Barth needs a bath.

Finish packing and gas up today, then south on Monday morning. Thanks to all for the encouragement and contacts.

Not to take away from the thread drift, but we had a great time at Lenny & Judy's over the weekend. Dinner at the North Naples Country Club, [a little bar with great food], a tour of 5th Avenue and downtown Naples, convincing us that this is another place we can scratch off the list of places we want to live, and a lot of kicking back and taking care of some things around the house. We enjoyed every minute and will post pix when we get them up. Thanks L&J and a special prayer for Judy, hope all is well.

Ran to Georgia Mon nite, went to Spring Hill, Florida Tues. (Barth ran great!)

Spent time with Corey and Cheri, what a fine time! Stayed Wed nite, too!

Ran to the Keys today, no problems. We'll spend a month and Barth will get much more attention. pics will follow.

Anyone recognize this picture?

We got the screen room up and we're almost settled in.

Where in the Keys? We've stayed at Pennekamp, Knights Key [Marathon], and Bahia Honda.

We're the next key over from Bahia Honda..Ohio key I believe ("Sunshine Key Resort") mile 39 many sites and a marina. No shirt, no shoes, NO SNOW!

We stayed at Sunshine many times in the 70's. Like most of the Keys, English was still spoken at that time. It's a beautiful park.
