AVON PARK, FL: An Interesting Day

Today started early.  We had to vacate Little House by 8 A.M. so the service technician, Steve,  could finish the job of replacing the 8 year old sealant all around the RV.  Then we had to wait  for the sun's warmth to work it's magic to make sure the sealant was set well enough to withstand the rigors of road travel.  We ate breakfast, Hank attended a  free RV Driver Confidence Seminar, we ate lunch and then we waited in the lounge to get the call that our Lazydays stay was finally over.  That good news arrived via our service adviser, Chad, and we departed Seffner about 4:30 P.M in order to make the 2 hour drive to Adelaide Shores RV Resort in Avon Park, FL.

Adelaide Shores is home to many snowbirds for the winter, including our full-timing friends Dee & Jim. We've visited them for the last several years, and  we always enjoy the friendliness of everyone we meet while we're there.  We arrived just as it was getting dark and by the time we located our assigned site (#235) it was completely dark which presented a problem getting situated in a position providing easy access the hookups while not running over the sewer connection in the process.  With the help of a neighbor (Mike) with his flashlight on one side and me with mine on the other, Hank was able to get Little House situated  in the proper position, and our long day ended on a good note.

Although we would have preferred to arrive yesterday as planned, we were happy that Lazydays could get us out of there in time to get to Avon Park today.  We'll be here until next Wednesday and  look forward to spending time with Dee & Jim again and enjoying the wonderful warm weather! Hank might even find some time for fishing.
