Off We Go !

We got up very early so that we could leave at 5am to get up to the Camping World Tampa to get our coach tires rotated before the traffic hit. All was fine but...we got there early and then a big thunder, lightning and rain storm hit so I could not disconnect the trailer and car. At 8am I went in and found out that we needed two new front tires but, they did not have them ! So, I called Tallahassee Camping World and arranged to be there the next day to have them installed. The tires cost $728 each ! The total bill came to $1769. Are you sure you want to full-time RV?

Nice to see and hear the birds again...and Katie is doing a great job travelling with us. She's either on Kim's lap sleeping or in her bed sleeping.

Oh...we left on April 7th, my birthday. Kim got me some funny birthday cards and a Cypress Knee carving. Very thoughtful.

FIRST STOP

We finally got out of the RV park where we spent The Season (Winter). Drove 325 north up I-75 to I-10 west to Tallahassee RV. Stopped about 4 times along the way. Not quite used to driving so far yet. LOTS of traffic on the 6-lane highway around Ocala and Gainesville. We stayed in the slow lane and went about 60 so we didn't have much trouble. Man, there's a lot of tailgaters on the road...not sure where they think they can go with a dozen cars in front of them, all going 75 mph.


Out our side window...gorgeous pine trees.

Out the front window with all the green grass.



Lots of Cardinals calling around the park here...wonderful sound. We've stayed here before...nice beautiful park.



 Kim's taking a nap and I'm fixing a bean soup for supper.

Yummmm

 Tomorrow, we take off around 11am (lazy morning) to head west to Eagle's Landing RV in Holt, Florida...only about 175 miles. Ought to be a relaxing day as we get back into the travelling mode again.
