This morning we started packing up, made very good time. Our neighbor started talking to us while we were getting ready to leave. Breaking one of the Cardinal rules of RVing not to talk to people when they're doing serious hooking up work, as to not forget anything. He said he was an author had to go get his book and show us. Jim's favorite thing looking at books, LOL. When Jim unplugged the electric there was a little critter sitting on top of the plug.
Jim told the author he should get his camera and come over here. His book was full of animals in their natural habitat, where it takes forever waiting for them to get the perfect shot. As we pulled out I looked and saw he was photographing it.
After we left Cody's I drove again. Stopped to get firewood that we saw on the way there a big wheel barrel full nice dry wood for $25. We arrived back at the CG, they drove ahead they know where they were going now. Both went back to where our own RVs rested a little put stuff away. Got ready and went up to the Hearth for the Saturday night line dance party here, with the line dance teachers Lee and wife Linda. It was a lot of fun the first hour he played all dances I could do, which made it really fun for me.
We got to chat a little Marv and Jim watched hockey on their phone. The Flyers are playing in Tampa on Thursday, Jim bought tickets for both of them to go. On Tuesday Jim's team the Flyers play Marv's team the Bruins. It was Lee's birthday someone brought cupcakes, so we all had one. All we ate since lunch. The party is over at 9 ish. He left the dogs in the MH he had a camera on them and Bailey does not like it and got you some wires that he had to fix before. So he went back and put them in the car drove back. We left around 9:30 walked back to our RVs made plans for a day of fun tomorrow.
We double-checked and pulled out at 10. That was our goal, when you leave Peace River you have to take the long way out. So we went past Mike and Mandy, I texted them by and then came out.
Is a 2 hour drive and we arrived at Clerbrook golf and RV Resort. They told us our site number. Had to figure out the best way to get there. Big FW had to wait for us to get in. Once we backed in we realized there was a golf cart for the park model behind us. Knocked on the door a couple times wanted to make sure it was cool with him where we were parking. Didn't want to find out later that it wasn't.
So the big RV that waited for us parked right across the street from us. Very quickly they were level and had their slides out. And then the lady in the fifth wheel, kind of behind them came out and said they were parked on her side and her husband Parks his truck and that they had to move. Which is what I was trying to avoid that situation over here with the golf cart. Short time later he arrived with his big truck, and told them they had to move over. They must have called the ranger they came up and gave him a different spot. Our opinion was that both people were a little to far over. Good for them they got a better spot anyway.
We finish setting up had lunch that I pre-made a sandwich for us. Called about a golf cart sadly none were available, he said he had over 30 of them out. Guess Were meant to walk this week.
Marv and Terri that we met at the bash are arriving today also. We went for a walk and got a paper on the activities, and asked if they had arrived yet, she told us they did, they gave us the wrong site number. We didn't get to see them today the later they told us they had to move from the first site they couldn't get level the sand was too soft. We made fun plans with them tomorrow.
We just relax the rest of the evening looking forward to hanging out with them tomorrow, they planned on staying for 10 days.

We had a relaxing morning I made pancakes and eggs. We texted with Marv and Terri on our plans for the day. We are very close to The Villages again about a half an hour away, they were never really there before. So we planned to go and walk around the farmers market in Brownwood Square, and then have lunch. They have two big dogs Bailey which we met at the bash, and Zeke there new pup.
They followed us in the truck. We parked and walked all around the different stands of produce. Jim and Marv held the dogs while we shopped, and they started their drinking day with a margarita. As Jim says you can't drink all day unless you start in the morning.
Jim was walking Zeke and he Cesar Millan him as the Dog Whisperer does and he listened very well to him and walked very nice. They said they wanted to watch some of his videos later.
I bought some produce and snacks, almost bought a sun hat which I think I want to go back for. She bought some produce and fish found a top for her son's girlfriend. We shopped till almost 2 we're more than ready for lunch now. We went over to Cody's Jim found out they were dog friendly. Terry and I met the guys over there . Had a nice table all the way in the back in the corner . It's happy hour there we were there for quite a few hours. The dogs we're really good. The food is so good I had salmon again Jim had a burger with an egg on it, Terri had fried fish, he ordered beef chunks, the food Runner brought him a burger with grilled onions, the dogs didn't like I'm walking up to the table like that. They gave the burger to the dogs and they brought him beef chunks a bit later, they definitely weren't in a rush about it, I guess they saw we were in a rush either. We had the same waiter London that we had the other week when we were here he is very very good waiter, we enjoyed them a lot.

We had a relaxing morning today, I ate a small bowl of cereal later and Jim finally ate a protein bar. Then Marv and Terri followed us to Yalaha Bakery. it was a very nice day but a little windy, we took turns going inside ordering our food from the deli. Later we went back in and got a treat Jim had a big eclair, it was huge and I had a huge peanut butter cookie we shared both. They are pricey at 5 for the eclair and a $1.75 for one big cookie. There was a guy playing a guitar and singing, he was very good.
The food was pretty good it was fun chatting, the dogs were very well behaved, thanks again to Jim's dog training techniques, they said.
We said goodbye to each other and they went to do their thing. On the way home we stopped at 2 Dollar Generals I went in by myself looking for items I can use to make my Jean purses. Then we went into a Publix, I ran into Winn-Dixie while Jim filled up our water jugs. I guess 133. 00 not a bad day.
We got home put everything away I had some things I wanted to cook. First I did some hard boiled eggs in my IP. I made little mini zucchini pies muffin shape, I made a chocolate chip zucchini cake, and in the big pot I made two different packages of beef I had in the freezer, one of the last older things I had in there. I cooked the beef by itself in the small pot I made a few little potatoes and baby carrots. After the beef reduced I added the veggies and thickened it all up seasoned it, that is what Jim had for dinner then.
I cooked for over 3 hours it was kind of a later dinner than I wanted. We watched American Idol and called it a lovely day.
