Florida, Moore Haven - Thursday, February 6, 2014 - M RV Resort

Happy birthday to daughter Robyn!!

I forgot to mention that Tuesday while Greg was gone to Ft. Myers I looked out the front window and it looked like the entire county must be on fire, I could see a huge wall of billowing black smoke.  It crossed my mind that I couldn’t drive this coach but maybe Greg could talk me through it if I had to evacuate.  After all he had the bike with him and loading it is the hardest part of moving.  The smoke went away quickly so I didn’t have to worry about it.  I found out later that they were burning off sugar cane fields.  I guess that is technically illegal, but the fine is so small the growers go ahead and do it anyway and just pay the fine.  I am still a little concerned however.  In Indiana the field mice, etc. start to invade homes looking for warmth when the weather turns cooler.  I’m just wondering what kinds of things they drive out of those fields looking to get away from all that warmth when their home goes up in flames.

I have to get all my information on who is doing what in the campground from the front window.  Our sight is blessed with one of the only trees in the campground, but I can’t see a thing from the side window next to the table.

We didn’t get up to the pancake breakfast this morning, we had blueberries that we needed to eat so we stayed home.  I have a feeling we won’t miss the next breakfast this month, it is biscuits and gravy, one of Greg’s favorites and I won’t make it for him but a couple of times a year.

I made a new recipe for lunch – crab stuffed mushrooms.  They turned out really good.

I made a batch of potato salad before I cleaned up the kitchen and then called it a day on cooking.  Greg grilled steaks and corn on the cob this evening.

So far it has rained at least some of each day we have been here but the temperatures have been pleasantly in the mid 80s.  Right now it is just pouring down rain.  We planned on riding tomorrow and seeing a little of the countryside around us, not sure at this point whether that will work out or not.

I need to get back to working on the tire covers so we can get that project out of the way.
