Tuesday, Nov 14 … Move day tomorrow so began the process of putting away stuff for travel the 50 miles to Port St. Lucie. We drove to the Sebastian Inlet State Park this afternoon. It was a beautiful sunny calm day (temp 78) so there were many people out fishing in boats and on the pier. We got a glimpse of a Bottlenose Dolphin and possibly a Manatee. We also walked quite a bit along the waters edge. Walking in sandals was not a good thing and our legs were aching later.
Monday, Nov 13 … A cool morning .. Even had to run the furnace to take the chill out. Dixie had another Dr. appointment at 2:15. Mike worked on the rewiring of the cable from the mh to the tow car. With a test light we determined I had done it correctly and now we have tow lights again.
Sunday, Nov 12 … Walked and rode bikes during the day. Went to the grocery store later in the day.
Saturday, Nov 11 … Veteran’s Day. Went to the beach. It was nice for a while but the weather turned cool at about 2:00p.m. so we came home.
Friday, Nov 10 … It’s someone’s birthday today (Mike). It’s also the birthday of the United States Marine Corp. Semper Fi. We went to the pool at about 1100a. for a couple of hours. We drove to Vero Beach for an early dinner at Mulligan’s Beach Grill. It was definitely on the beach. The temp was about 78 so we ate outside with a beautiful view of the Atlantic ocean. We ordered Mahi Mahi & ribeye steak which we divided so we could each have a bit of both. The food and service was outstanding. A great ending to a wonderful birthday.
Thursday, Nov 9 … Dixie went to a local Chiropractor in an effort to get relief from headaches and numbness in her hands. After the appointment, we found access to the public beach in Vero Beach. Boy, are there a lot of expensive homes and condo’s along the water. Why are we surprised because we’ve seen many of them since entering the great state of FL.
Wednesday, Nov 8 … Travel day today but only after we had Jim Guld of www.geeksontour.com work for over two hours on our laptop computer. It was sick to say the least. Jim found (and deleted) several viruses and corrupted files. We can’t thank you enough, Jim. It’s now running like a fine Swiss watch. The 108 miles to Vero Beach was uneventful … just the way we like it. The Sunshine RV resort of Vero Beach is a good park. The office gave us a site that was very near I-95. (You could see the cars and trucks whizzing by.) I asked for another site on the other side of the park and farther away from the freeway and lo and behold the lady gave us one. It’s much quieter plus we have nice neighbors.
