KOA Davenport, Florida

2/10/2013

Now we can take a deep breath and relax for a couple days before going home to Massachusetts. The KOA here in Davenport is nice and quiet, Ellen is working again and I spend the next couple days shaking the beach sand out of everything and hand washing the motorhome again.

These few days actually turn out to be the best way to end a vacation. We get to totally relax and prep the RV for storage at Park, Bark and Fly. The Mini will also be staying at PBF and we will be flying home on JetBlue.

We will be back in May to cheer Jodi Bellefeuille as she competes in a Triathlon event near Davenport, then we’ll hook up the Mini and drive Miss Adventure home to Mass for the summer.

SuperBowl Party - Fort Myers Beach

2/1/2013

Looking out our front window at a soft sandy beach and the Gulf of Mexico. These spaces at the Red Coconut are pretty small but Miss Adventure fits nicely onto Row 1 and her front toes are relaxing on the beach sand. The weather is fabulous and Marie has joined us for a few days. Tommy, Corey, and TJ Lee come over for a couple visits and bring Scott, Jodi, and Charlee Bellefeuille along with them. They are enjoying the beach and the motorhome gives them an easy place for rest rooms and an afternoon air conditioned nap.

Ed and April threw an excellent SuperBowl party giving us an opportunity to visit with all our Fort Myers friends. Ed took me golfing with his group from the Elks, we had a lot of fun and I only lost one golf ball (a new record). I rode the bicycle almost every day, traveling out to Sanibel and down to Bonita Beach, I got a flat tire for the first time in a long time and had to do a tube replacement. Three other bicyclists stopped to see if I needed any help, fellow bicyclists are always there when you need them.

Time flies by when we’re here because we have so many friends and so much to do. Now it is time to head back north, first to Davenport then back to Massachusetts. Before we go, we make sure to reserve our spot for next year.

Ellen gets to back the motorhome out of the site and draws a huge crowd of onlookers. She is pretty good at it and gets it out easy. I drive the coach to Topp’s parking lot and Ellen meets me there with the Mini so we can hook it up for towing.

Now it’s off to Davenport with the Mini “pushin as hard as she can”.
