End of 2014

It's been a couple of weeks since I posted, so I thought I would wind up the end of the year with a quick post.  we had a really nice Christmas with our children in Fleming Island.  Presents were enjoyed by all!  Of course, the food was great as always.  We have been relaxing at Kelly's RV Park in Callahan, FL. since the 10th of December and will be here until the 10th of January when we head to Tampa for the RV SuperShow.  We also enjoyed a nice Christmas party with our Good Sam Chapter.  It was really good to see everyone, especially since we are heading to the west coast after the Tampa Super Show.  We plan on being back in time for the holidays in November next year. 


As  you can see, Debby did a great job of decorating the rig this year.  This is our first Christmas as full time RV'ers and not having a house to decorate.  I think she did an outstanding job!



The above pictures are of our Chapters Christmas Party.  We all had a good time and enjoyed some great food.  My blood sugar went up sharply after these wonderful meals and treats.

We also were invited to Jax Rambling Sam's Christmas party, which was also held here at Kelly's RV Park.  We enjoyed our time with them and appreciate very much the invitation.

While our chapter was here, Debby being the only elected officer, held a short meeting where we got a lot of business done.  She really did a GREAT job!
2014 has been a very exciting year for Debby and I.  I hope that 2015 is as exciting and I expect it will be.  Our trip out west is rapidly approaching and we are anticipating a really good year.

It is our hope that all who read our blog have a Happy and Prosperous New Year.

Please travel safe and I'll type more later!

Another Moving Day!

It has been some time since I wrote, so I guess moving day is as good as any.  We spent 17 days at NAS Jacksonville RV park and today we moved to Kelly's RV Park in Callahan, FL.  We have been fortunate enough to get to spend a lot of time with the kids that live in Orange Park and Fleming Island.  We had a GREAT Thanks Giving at our daughters house and managed to go with her, our son-in-law and son to Single Vision, INC.  This is a wild life refuge.  We had a really great time.  I posted a couple of pictures of me being mauled by a lion......ok, so it was just a cub, and only weighed 35 pounds, but it was really fun! I would recommend Single Vision in Melrose, FL to anyone who enjoys wild animals.  Here are a couple of pictures to tempt you.





Our site at NAS Jax was pretty nice.  They told us we would not be able to pick up satellite, but we were able to pick up 2 of the 3 satellites that we needed to pick up our programing.  We only missed a couple of HD channels, but still got the SD stations.  So we really were not out anything.  They did have a warning sign up about alligators.  Here are a couple of pictures of the campground.





We really did enjoy our stay at NAS Jax.  The good news is that while we were there, we FINALLY had the slide out fixed!  I wasn't sure until we moved today, but it went in nicely and came our nicely.  Hopefully we will not have any more issues with it.  Now we have  a leak in the toilet.  It appears that the seal is leaking down.  No water on the floor or any thing like that, but the bowl empties out after a very short time.  I guess I'll have to replace the seal.  Going to look up the paperwork so I can find out what model we have so I can get the correct parts.
Anyway, it has been an interesting couple of weeks.  We are staying here at Kelly's for a month before we head to the RV show.  I will try to update you before we move again.

Drive Safe,  I'll type more later.
