Wintering in Florida

Wow! How time flys when you are having fun! It has been so long since we have updated. Where do we begin?

We enjoyed a wonderful Christmas with family. Betty's brother, Bill Daniels visited with us for over three weeks. Arriving on December 10th and departing January 3 rd. It is always a delight to have him visit. He keeps us going. We were out and about everyday shopping.

One day we went to Lowes and bought cabinets for our daughter's laundry room (late birthday present)and installed them. Bill was a great helper. After Christmas, he helped me install a new entryway and bathroom light fixture for Ellie. She received them as Christmas Gifts.

Christmas morning is always a fantastic treat. The family all arrives early for breakfast and then open gifts. This year we had Christmas dinner on Sunday evening. Chip and Emily went to her brother's house Christmas afternoon for dinner and opening gifts.

We are now in Florida visiting with my brother and his family. We arrived in Winter Garden Sunday, January 6th. We have also enjoyed spending time with our dear friends, Barbara and Curtis Burton from Virginia. They are the couple that introduced Betty and I to the RV lifestyle back in the mid seventies.

We will be attending the Florida Winter Samboree in Dunnellon. Then we will go to visit with my sister in Brandon until we head north for The Rally.

More soon.
