This past week, we spent more time saying goodbye to friends who were leaving. Jane wound up her volunteer activities at "Toys for Tots". Most of these park activites end their last session with a dessert & coffee social. I think Jane came home with as many treats as she left with - but a much more interesting variety!! Paul's computer club wound up as did his time at the woodshop. This year, Paul joined the woodshop so that he could have access to some expensive tools. He has completed several projects over the course of the winter.
Fun N Sun is starting to look like a ghost town. Over 500 campsites have been vacated over the last few days. We also have also started to prepare for our trip. We dug out our maps and camp directories to plan our route. Looks like Galveston, New Orleans and Nashville are in the early part of our return trip.
Paul also spent time prepping the trailer last week. It is now waxed and shiny (so we can get it dirty on the way home… Now how smart is that?). While washing the roof, he noted some needed warranty repairs, so we have scheduled a maintenance stop in Walkerton / Hanover at Morry’s on April 18th. We should be home by the 20th.
Saturday (April 2nd) we had a pot luck dinner with all our Canadian friends who are still in the park - and who will be leaving within the next week. As usual there was too much food (but it was great) and the gathering stretched way into the evening since Dave got out his portable firepit (propane model) - so we enjoyed a campfire without the mess.
Last night was our last “Ice Cream Social”. Not much waiting to be served, since the crowd was down to a mere 200 or so – but we had to enjoy our last Blue Bell ice cream until next season. Of course the 90 degree weather just makes ice cream taste better!!
We will be posting our progress as we find WiFi on our return trip.
