Jim found another truck. It's almost perfect. But... it's Red not black or a color that matches the RV, Not a Volvo, and it's in Ohio, not to far. But it does have a 2016 Smart car and it's all ready to roll. $ 60 K. So tempting...
Still no gator sightings.
Once we came out of the jungle, walking back to our site for lunch. We saw a rig that had Pennsylvania plates. A young family with two kids, Ezra and Paisley. We talked to their parents Brock and Jen had a nice chat with him. And took a great picture of our camper from a different angle.
I ran back to the RV and grabbed cards for them for K&J meat and produce in Arcadia, that I tell everyone about. I told them we had a freezer in our front compartment so we can stock up at that store. He looked at his wife and said, "why don't we have one of them." Lol They are very handy
We also talked a lot about Switch It Up.
Although it's red and way newer than ours. As most of them are newer that we see now.
We said hi and he pulled over and we chatted. We had just went by his fifth wheel, so he took us over to it to show us a few things. This is the cool rack he tows it behind his fifth wheel. Which Jim never wanted to do. He says " we're long enough," I agree.
Then I saw in the back it says " don't mess with a former retired owner operator." So I said you're a retired truck driver. He confirmed and we talked HDT. He's not into it, not everyone is. It's not for everyone.
We continued to talk, super nice guy. He was a widow, but now has a girlfriend and they travel together with their little dog Ginger, a Pomeranian. His name is Fran and hers is Gloria. She came out too and we all were chatting, and he talked about going to a casino nearby and he won 2 bottles of this whiskey, by John Rich. He gave Jim a bottle.
That was incredibly nice of him to give Jim a bottle. We finally said our goodbyes. And headed back home.
We finished our golf cart ride, went to check the activity schedule here first and then went home, we had dinner together.

Today was kind of a cold chilly day for Florida. Jim and I took a personal day and had a much-needed conversation.
Life changing, thanks to all I've learning in No BS. That's all I need to say about that.
